Salary with vector array to get sum of employee gross pay - c++

Question

I am to create an application that takes at least 5 employees i.d, names, pay rate, and hours. And then I am to add the pay rate and the hours together to show the gross pay for each employee at the end of the initial inquiries. I am stuck on how to add it in the vector please help!
** Here is the assignment that our instructor gave us **
http://itweb.fvtc.edu/ag/?u=3&f=cpp-assignment4
I've added a vector and added all the essential information for the employee
#include <iostream>
#include <conio.h>
#include <string>
#include <vector>
using namespace std;
struct Employee
{
int id;
string firstName;
string lastName;
float payRate;
int hours;
};
int main()
{
/*========= other way of adding employee information ==========*/
/*const int NUM_EMPLOYEE = 5;
Employee employee[NUM_EMPLOYEE];
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++)
{
cout << "ID of employee " << (i + 1) << ": ";
cin >> employee[i].id;
cout << "First Name of employee " << (i + 1) << ": ";
cin >> employee[i].firstName;
cout << "Last Name of employee " << (i + 1) << ": ";
cin >> employee[i].lastName;
cout << "Pay rate for employee " << (i + 1) << ": ";
cin >> employee[i].payRate;
cout << "Hours worked " << (i + 1) << ": ";
cin >> employee[i].hours;
}*/
/*========= End of other way of adding employee information ==========*/
vector<Employee> employees;
char Another = 'y';
while (Another == 'y' || Another == 'Y')
{
Employee e;
cout << "Enter employee ID: \n";
cin >> e.id;
cout << "Enter employee first name: \n";
cin >> e.firstName;
cout << "Enter employee last name: \n";
cin >> e.lastName;
cout << "Enter employee pay rate: \n";
cin >> e.payRate;
cout << "Enter employee hours worked: \n";
cin >> e.hours;
employees.push_back(e);
cout << "Another? (y/n): \n";
cin >> Another;
}
float sum = 0;
vector<Employee>::iterator it = employees.begin();
for (; it != employees.end(); it++)
{
cout << "ID of employee: \n" << it->id << ": \n"
<< "Employees name: \n" << it->firstName << " " << it->lastName << ": \n"
<< "Employee pay rate: \n" << it->payRate << ": \n"
<< "Employee hours worked: \n" << it->hours << "\n";
}
float avg = sum / employees.size();
Employee e;
/*cout << " ID of employees: \n" << e.id;
cout << " Name of employees: \n" << e.firstName << " " <<
e.lastName;*/
cout << "Gross pay of employees: \n" << avg;
_getch();
return 0;
}
Show Id, names, and gross pay of all employees to user

vector<Employee> employees;
char Another = 'y';
while (Another == 'y' || Another == 'Y')
{
Employee e;
cout << "Enter employee ID: \n";
cin >> e.id;
cout << "Enter employee first name: \n";
cin >> e.firstName;
cout << "Enter employee last name: \n";
cin >> e.lastName;
cout << "Enter employee pay rate: \n";
cin >> e.payRate;
cout << "Enter employee hours worked: \n";
cin >> e.hours;
employees.push_back(e);
cout << "Another? (y/n): \n";
cin >> Another;
}
float sum = 0;
vector<Employee>::iterator it = employees.begin();
cout << "ID" << "\t" << "First Name" << "\t" << "Last Name" << "\t" << "Pay rate" << "\t" << "Hours" << "\t" << "Gross Pay" << "\n" ;
for (; it != employees.end(); it++)
{
float grossPay = it->payRate * it->hours;
cout << it->id << "\t" << it->firstName << "\t\t" << it->lastName << "\t\t" << it->payRate << "\t\t"
<< it->hours << "$" << "\t" << grossPay << "\n";
sum += grossPay;
}
cout << "The gross pay for all employee is: " << "$" << sum;
_getch();
return 0;
}
//This is what i got so far. But if I want to make the application ask the user to input how many employee they want to enter into the database how do i do that? would it be like this?
int EMPLOYEE_NUM[][] // ??
