Code Overview

1. Header Files and Namespace:

• <iostream> is included for input and output operations.
• <string> is included for potential future use (not used in this program).
• using namespace std; allows the use of standard functions without prefixing them with std::.

2. Structure (stPiggyBankContent)

• Defines a struct to store counts of different types of coins and dollar bills:
  • Pennies
  • Nickels
  • Dimes
  • Quarters
  • Dollars

3. User Input Function (ReadPiggyBankContent)

• Prompts the user to enter the number of coins and dollar bills.
• Stores the values in a struct.
• Returns the struct containing piggy bank content.

4. Total Penny Calculation Function (CalculateTotalPennies)

• Converts all coins and dollar bills into pennies using:

• Returns the total amount in pennies.

5. Program Execution (main())

• Calls ReadPiggyBankContent() to get user input.
• Calls CalculateTotalPennies() to compute the total in pennies.
• Prints:
  • Total Pennies
  • Total Dollars (converted from pennies)
• Returns 0 to indicate successful execution.
