Step 2: Initialize • Defining ‘MAX_CARS’, ‘MAX_MODEL_LENGTH’,
Constants and ‘MAX_NAME_LENGTH’ as constants.
Structs • Defining ‘Model’, ‘Rental Rates’, ‘Quantity’, ‘Rental Days

Interaction Loop ‘displayMenu()’, that promote the user to take actions

the correct password.
Step 7: Add a Car • Check if maximum capacity (MAX_CARS) has been reached.
“addCar()” • Prompt user for details of the new car (model, rental rate,
quantity).
• Add the new car to the `cars` array and update ‘numCars’.
Step 8: Display • Check if there are cars in the fleet “numCars > 0”.
Fleet • Iterate through the `cars` array and display details (model,
“displayFleet()” rental rate, quantity, days left on rental).

Step 9: Rent a Car • Prompt user for the model of car to rent.
“rentCar()” • Find the car in the ‘cars’ array ‘findCarIndex()’.
• If available, prompt for customer details (name, phone

• Calculate total cost and update car quantity and rental days
left.
• Display an invoice with customer and rental details.

Step 10: Return a • Prompt user for the model of car to return.
Car “returnCar()” • Find the car in the ‘cars’ array.
• Increase the quantity of the returned car and reset rental days

• Display confirmation message.
Step 11: • Use this function to store several cars with their ‘model’,
Initialization Fleet ‘rental rates’, ‘quantity’, ‘days left for rented’ in the attributes
“initializeFleet()” of car1, car2, car3 and so on
