beginner c++ draw house program - c++

Question

New at c++ so if I get any terms wrong please don't ridicule me. I am trying to write a program that will draw ask the user for units and then draw house using functions. The problem that I am having is in my drawcone function Here is my progress so far.
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
void drawcone(int height);
void drawHorizontalLine(int numXs);
void draw2VerticalLines(int numSpaces, int numRows);
void drawOneRow(int numSpaces);
void getDimensions(int& width, int& height);
void drawbox(int width, int height);
int main(){
int width;
int height;
getDimensions(height, width);
drawcone(height);
drawHorizontalLine(width);
draw2VerticalLines(width - 2, height - 2);
drawHorizontalLine(width);
return 0;
}
void drawbox(int width, int height){
drawHorizontalLine(width);
draw2VerticalLines(width - 2, height - 2);
drawHorizontalLine(width);
}
void drawcone(int height){
int base = height * 2;
int r = 0;
while ( r != height){
int c = 0;
while (c != base){
if(c==height-r || c==height+r)
cout << "X";
else
cout << " ";
c++;
}
cout << endl;
r++;
}
}
void drawHorizontalLine(int numXs)
{
int count;
for (count = 0; count < numXs; count++){
cout << "X";
}
cout << endl;
}
void draw2VerticalLines(int numSpaces, int numRows)
{
int rowCount;
for (rowCount = 0; rowCount < numRows; rowCount++){
drawOneRow(numSpaces);
}
}
void drawOneRow(int numSpaces)
{
int spaceCount;
cout << "X";
for (spaceCount = 0; spaceCount < numSpaces; spaceCount++){
cout << " ";
}
cout << "X" << endl;
}
void getDimensions(int& width, int& height){
cout << "Enter the width of the house" << endl;
cin >> width;
cout << "Enter the height of the house" << endl;
cin >> height;
}
The correct sample output would look like this
X
X X
X X
XXXXX
X X
X X
XXXXX
My current output looks like this
X
X X
X X
X X
XXXX
X X
X X
XXXX
I would like the cone to be slightly smaller so it will be proportionate to the box. I would also prefer an answer that does not involve modifying the drawbox function. Thank you for your time!

Answer 1

Here's one solution. However, the cone will be symmetrical only if the width is odd.
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
void drawcone(int height);
void drawHorizontalLine(int numXs);
void draw2VerticalLines(int numSpaces, int numRows);
void drawOneRow(int numSpaces);
void getDimensions(int& width, int& height);
void drawbox(int width, int height);
int main() {
int width;
int height;
getDimensions(width, height);
drawcone(width);
drawHorizontalLine(width);
draw2VerticalLines(width - 2, height - 2);
drawHorizontalLine(width);
return 0;
}
void drawbox(int width, int height) {
drawHorizontalLine(width);
draw2VerticalLines(width - 2, height - 2);
drawHorizontalLine(width);
}
void drawcone(int width) {
for (int i=0; i<(width/2 + width%2); i++) {
for (int j=width/2-i; j>0; j--) {
cout << " ";
}
drawOneRow(i*2-1);
}
}
void drawHorizontalLine(int numXs)
{
int count;
for (count = 0; count < numXs; count++) {
cout << "X";
}
cout << endl;
}
void draw2VerticalLines(int numSpaces, int numRows)
{
int rowCount;
for (rowCount = 0; rowCount < numRows; rowCount++) {
drawOneRow(numSpaces);
}
}
void drawOneRow(int numSpaces)
{
int spaceCount;
cout << "X";
if (numSpaces > 0) {
for (spaceCount = 0; spaceCount < numSpaces; spaceCount++) {
cout << " ";
}
cout << "X";
}
cout << endl;
}
void getDimensions(int& width, int& height) {
cout << "Enter the width of the house" << endl;
cin >> width;
cout << "Enter the height of the house" << endl;
cin >> height;
}

Answer 2

Should be fairly easy to debug, it's printing out the wrong number of spaces for the 'roof' of the house.
The problem should be contained in the while ( r != height) block
try messing with the else {cout << " ";} with else if(c%2==1){cout << " ";}

Answer 3

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
void roof(int height);
void hLine(int num);
void vLine(int spaces, int rows);
void row(int spaces);
void dimensions(int& width, int& height);
void box(int width, int height);
int main()
{
int width;
int height;
dimensions(height, width);
roof(height);
hLine(width);
vLine(width - 2, height - 2);
hLine(width);
return 0;
}
void box(int width, int height)
{
hLine(width);
vLine(width - 2, height - 2);
hLine(width);
}
void roof(int height)
{
int base = height * 2;
int r = 0;
while ( r != height)
{
int c = 0;
while (c != base)
{
if(c==height-r || c==height+r)
cout << "*";
else
cout << " ";
c++;
}
cout << endl;
r++;
}
}
void hLine(int num)
{
int count;
for (count = 0; count < num*2+1; count++)
{
cout << "-";
}
cout << endl;
}
void vLine(int spaces, int rows)
{
int numrows;
for (numrows = 0; numrows < rows; numrows++)
{
row(spaces);
}
}
void row(int spaces)
{
int numspaces;
cout << "{";
for (numspaces = 0; numspaces < spaces*2+3; numspaces++)
{
cout << "$";
}
cout << "}" << endl;
}
void dimensions(int& width, int& height)
{
cout<<"Enter the width of the house"<<endl;
cin>>width;
cout<<"Enter the height of the house"<<endl;
cin>>height;
}
