I really wish I could help, but I'm only just getting into C++. I can do the C for you, if that is any help at all.

The converter function is passed the character code of the country you wish to convert from, and the amount of money as a floating point number.

float converter(char type, float amount)
{
switch(type)
{
case germany:
usd = amount * 1.1;
break;
case austria:
usd = amount * 1.2;
break;
case france:
usd = amount * 1.3;
break;
case sweden:
usd = amount * 1.4;
break;
case poland:
usd = amount * 1.5;
break;
default:
usd = amount * 1.0;
break;
}
return usd;
}

Use whatever numbers accurately represent the current conversion rate sfor then countries you choose.

Well, something like that, I think. Might be totally different in C++, sorry.
