Select a location and give a name to your project:
Click on Next, and after that click on Finish.
Now right click on the project and select Add New…:
Select the type of file you want to add, for example C++ Source File for the .cpp files and C++ Header File for the .h files.
For this program, you will eventually need to have these files:
This is the content of each of these four files:
