Conduct of Lab
1. Students are required to perform this experiment individually.
2. In case the lab experiment is not understood, the students are advised to seek help from
the course instructor, lab engineers, assigned teaching assistants (TA) and lab
attendants.

Theory and Background

Structures in C++ provide a convenient way to group related variables together into a single
entity. By defining a structure, you can create a custom data type that represents a specific
concept or object in your program. The member variables within a structure can have different
data types, allowing you to store and organize diverse information. Structures are commonly
used to represent real-world entities such as people, products, or coordinates.

Operator overloading is supported in structures in certain programming languages. Operator overloading

allows you to define how operators behave when applied to objects of a particular class or structure.

In languages such as C++ or C#, you can overload operators within a structure to define custom behavior
for those operators. This means that you can define how operators like +, -, *, /, etc., work when used
with instances of your structure.
 Lab Task
Part A [Marks: 5]

Please follow the following steps before starting below tasks:

 Create function.h file for declaration of all functions
 Create function.cpp file to define define all declared functions.
 Create main.cpp file for driving code/call functions.

Note: Make a menu driven program (compulsory).

Part B: Implementation of Structure with Pointers & with Arrays (DMA) [Marks:
35]
Create a structure called Rectangle to represent rectangles in a 2D plane. The Rectangle
structure should have the following properties: length, width, and area.
Implement operator overloading for the Rectangle structure to support the following
operations:
Addition (+): Add two rectangles to create a new rectangle with a combined area.
Subtraction (-): Subtract the area of one rectangle from another rectangle to obtain
a new rectangle with the remaining area.
Multiplication (*): Multiply a rectangle by a scalar value to scale its area.
Division (/): Divide the area of a rectangle by a scalar value to reduce its area.

Write a C++ program that demonstrates the usage of the Rectangle structure and its
overloaded operators. Your program should perform the following tasks:

Create two instances of the Rectangle structure, representing two rectangles with
different dimensions.

Perform addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division operations on the rectangles

using the overloaded operators.

Display the original rectangles, the result of each operation, and their respective areas.
