A patient is admitted to your surgical center for a breast biopsy under local anesthesia. The surgeon has previously informed the patient of the procedure, risks, alternatives, desired outcomes, and possible complications. You give the surgery permit form to the patient for her signature. She readily states that she knows about the procedure and has no additional questions; she signs the form with no hesitation. Her husband, who is visiting with her, says he is worried that something may be said during the procedure to alarm his wife. What do you do at this point? Do you alert the surgeon that informed consent has not been obtained? Do you request that the surgeon revisit the patient and reinstruct her about the surgery? Since the patient has already signed the form, is there anything more you should do?
Now consider the ethical issues that such a scenario raises. Which ethical principles is the husband in this example most portraying? Which ethical principles should guide the nurse in working with this patient and family member?

Maxie Coppinger, an office worker at ToledoTechnical School, is waiting for the administrative manager to return from lunch. Maxie has borne the brunt of several offensive office political games within the past six weeks. In her wait for Mr. Darrell Williams, the administrative manager, to return she contemplates what she should do about this latest trick. Should she make a scene and confront the two women she suspects are behind these acts, should she quit her job, or should she seek legal counsel? This latest tactic has crossed the line, and Maxie has had it. When Mr. Williams returns, Maxiefollows him into his office, places a letter addressed to her husband on Mr. Williams’desk, and asks him to read it. Mr. Williamsis perplexed but begins to read. He can see real anger in Maxie’s face and overall demeanor. In a very few sentences, he ascertains that the letter strongly suggests to her husband that Maxie is having an affair at work. Maxie wants to know what Mr.Williams plans to do about this accusation and outright lie. She denies any affair is going on and is willing to confront her accuser(s)—whoever they may be. Her husband feels Toledo Technical School should put an end to these games.
Questions:
1. If you were Mr. Williams, what would be your initial reaction?
2. In your opinion, does the company become responsible for serious allegations made by a coworker to another coworker?
3. If you were Mr. Williams, how would you advise Maxie?

This assignment uses a combination of classes and arrays.
Instructions:
1) download the 3 program files into a new C++ project. NOTE: if your IDE does not allow you to create projects - or you are not sure how to do it - then you may combine the two cpp files into a single file.
2) Complete the program by adding code the the class methods. You may want to study the existing code first to get a feel for how to access the class attributes. There is no need to modify any of the methods that are already implemented.
UPDATE: You are working with magic_square.cpp. View comments as ref. Thank you.
