Resolved: Getting huge random numbers in c++

class movie : public video{<br />
public:<br />
    movie();<br />
    movie(int, std::string, int, std::string, int);</p>
<p>    float getRating();<br />
    void setRating(int);<br />
    void showrating();</p>
<p>protected:<br />
    int rating;</p>
<p>}; </p>
<p>movie::movie(){<br />
rating = 0;<br />
}</p>
<p>movie::movie(int _id, std::string _name, int _length, std::string<br />
_genre, int _rating) : video(_id, _name, _length, _genre){}</p>
<p>void movie::showrating(){<br />
std::cout << name <<" has been rated " << rating << " stars out of 5." << std::endl;
}
[/code]

</p>



And here is how i used it in my main.cpp<br> 


<p>[code]movie LordOfTheRings(0, "Lord of the Rings", 155, "Adventure", 5);<br />
movie StarWars(1, "Star Wars", 132, "SciFi", 5);<br />
movie Inception(2, "Inception", 143, "Action", 4);<br />
movie Interstellar(3, "Interstellar", 153, "SciFi", 5);<br />
movie Tenet(4, "Tenet", 135, "Action", 3);</p>
<p>movie moviearr [5] = {LordOfTheRings, StarWars, Inception, Interstellar, Tenet};</p>
<p>for (int i = 0; i <= 4; i++){
    moviearr[i].showrating();
}
[/code]

</p>



After running the program, this is the result.
The rating should appear there but i'm just getting these random numbers.<br>

I'd really appreciate some help.<br> 



<h2>Answer:</h2>



You forgot to set rating to anything in your constructor. That's why its value is 'random'<br> 



Change this<br> 


<p>[code]movie::movie(int _id, std::string _name, int _length, std::string<br />
_genre, int _rating) : video(_id, _name, _length, _genre){}

movie::movie(int _id, std::string _name, int _length, std::string 
_genre, int _rating) : video(_id, _name, _length, _genre), rating(_rating) {}
