   private:
   int feet;
   float inches;
   public:

   {  }
   Measure(int ft, float in) : feet(ft), inches(in)
   {  }
   void getdist()                  //get length from user
   {
      cout << "\nEnter feet: ";  cin >> feet;
      cout << "Enter inches: ";  cin >> inches;
   }
   void showdist()

//add this distance to d2, return the sum

   {                               //then decrease inches
       temp.inches -= 12.0;            //by 12.0 and
       temp.feet = 1;                  //increase feet
    }                               //by 1
