Acknowledgment.
Thank you very much everyone who help me to deliver this program

1.0 Introduction
1.1 Background SecureLife is a new Insurance company that intents to introduce a computerized insurance system for their customers. The program read the customer details that include in a text file print it on screen and save changed detail in another text file. 1st program display a menu to choose whether to claim or get policy details. Then user should select an option (1 or2) to continue. Then user should enter the policy number to the system. After you entered policy number system validates it and finds a match. Then system displays the policy details and asks for claim amount if necessary. When you entered claim amount system check the capability of doing that transaction. If its ok system display remaining balance and save the transaction details in Claimed.txt.

Coursework 1 3.0
The problems I had face 1) How to use the fstream header? 2) How it works (getline)? 3) How to rearrange policyData.txt? 4) How to check the policy number I entered right or wrong? 5) How to convert string to an int? 6) How to save in a text file? 7) How to increase the user friendliness? 8) How does someone else understand my code or develop it?

Conclusion

How I manage them 1) I Just went to C++.com and searched details about fstream. Then I understood how to use the function. 2) Go through the lecture notes and find out the answer. 3) Contact the lecturer and asked what to do. 4) Use a while loop which include a count++ from that I found a way to validate these data. 5) I asked from some friends and hemika kodikara gave me the answer. 6) I success this task by keep on trying. Really it worked for me, I failed several times early. Latter I found the way to save the text data. 7) I tried my best to deliver a user friendly program by using simple English and adding newlines, stars, spaces,..etc. whenever it necessary. 8) I leave some comments whenever it difficult to understand & for the use of next developer.

Final decision This is my 1st program that I use text file for get detail and display it and then again save the changed details (values).I had encountered many problems while developing this program. I solve many of them and gained huge experience by solving them.

I try to use many programing technics that I learn from the course. I used if/else, while/for loops, functions,etc. I use a constant, a global variable & 9 local variables in my program. In my program there is 4 functions including the main function.

Unfortunately i did not use enumeration or structures in my program. As I think its the defect of my program. I try to add them but instead of that I use a mathematical way solve them. Because of that reading ability of my coding slightly reduced. To get rid from that defect of my coding I leave some useful comments whenever it necessary.

Taking as a whole I think made a good program that can be used in the industry for commercial use.
