Responses based on user input?

[codenew96]

Could someone please offer advice on the best way to add statements based on user input?

To put it simply I want my code to make comments based on user input...

If they say 1 person at party I want to say "no friends?"
If thet say 100 to 150 people at the party I want to say "a shindig!!!"


// beeralator
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <sstream>
#include <time.h>




using namespace std;
int beer();

int main ()

{
char answer;

do {
beer();
cout<<"Would you like to try again? You must hit enter after answer...y/n\n\n";
cin>> answer;
cin.ignore();
cout<<"\n";
}
while (answer=='y');
cout << "Enjoy your party! press enter to exit.";
cin.get();
}
int beer()
{

string mystr;
int people=0;
float quantity=0;
float hours=0;
float price=0;
int bottles=0;
float pbottles=0;
float cover=0;

cout << "This program will calculate your cost or profit of alcahol for an event. A negative sign indicates a profit. Press enter to continue...";
getline (cin,mystr);

cout << "How many people will be attending? ";
getline (cin,mystr);
stringstream(mystr) >> people;

cout << "On average how many beers will they be drinking an hour? ";
getline (cin,mystr);
stringstream(mystr) >> quantity;

cout << "Average cost per case? ";
getline (cin,mystr);
stringstream(mystr) >> price;

cout << "How many bottles will you buy? ";
getline (cin,mystr);
stringstream(mystr) >> bottles;

cout << "Average cost per bottle? ";
getline (cin,mystr);
stringstream(mystr) >> pbottles;

cout << "How long will the event last? ";
getline (cin,mystr);
stringstream(mystr) >> hours;

cout << "cover charge? ";
getline (cin,mystr);
stringstream(mystr) >> cover;

cout << "You will need this many cases... " << people*quantity*hours/24<< endl;
cout << "You will spend this much on bottles... $" << bottles*pbottles << endl;

cout << "Your total cost or profit will be... $" << people*quantity*hours/24*price+(bottles*pbottles)-(cover*people) << endl;



return 0;
}

Use if statements after you have collected the user input you need to determine the message.
