Project Description:

You are tasked with implementing a simplified banking system that models the behavior of bank accounts. This
project will test your knowledge and skills in various C++ concepts, including copy constructors, multiple inheritance,
operator overloading, range-based loops, standard template library (STL), and virtual functions. You will also be
required to design and implement a class hierarchy for different types of bank accounts.

Project Requirements:

1- Class Hierarchy:
➢ Create a base class called BankAccount with the following attributes:
• std::string accountNumber
• std::string accountHolderName
• double balance
➢ Implement the following member functions for the BankAccount class:

• A default constructor.
• A parameterized constructor that takes accountNumber, accountHolderName, and balance as
parameters.
• A copy constructor.
• A virtual function void deposit(double amount) that adds amount to the balance.
• A virtual function void withdraw(double amount) that subtracts amount from the balance.
• A virtual function void display() const that displays the account information (account number,
account holder name, and balance).
2- Derived Classes:
• Create two derived classes, SavingsAccount and CheckingAccount, both inheriting from
BankAccount.
• SavingsAccount should have an additional attribute double interestRate and a member function
void addInterest() that increases the balance by the interest rate times the current balance.
• CheckingAccount should have an additional attribute double overdraftLimit and override the
withdraw function to allow for overdrafts up to the overdraft limit.
3- Operator Overloading:
Implement the + operator overloading for BankAccount objects to combine the balances of two accounts
and return a new BankAccount object.

4- STL Usage:
Use an STL container (e.g., std::vector) to store and manage a collection of BankAccount objects.

5- Range-Based Loops:
Use range-based loops to iterate through and display the information of all the accounts in your container.
