hello every body

iam very lucky and happy to be here
iam very very happy

and iam really need this site
because iam studying comp. eng.
and i have some problems, i hope and i think you will help:)


my ques. here is

how I write aprogram that read a list of student from afile(this is easy:) ) and creat a linked list each entry should have the students name, a pointer to the next student, and pointer to a link list of scores,there may up to 4 scores
[the scores' prompt should include the name of the student];

after all scores have been entered, the program should print the scores for each student along with score total and average score.

i hope the idea was reahed:)

good bye
waiting you.

I'm not so sure how much of a help this is, but I actually had to write a similar program in the past. It's posted here:

http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread239-hash+table.html

The program that I had to write read a list of grocery list items from a file, and put them into a hash table. A hash table is basically a linked list of linked lists ;) I hope that you could look through my code, follow it along, (I comment pretty well), and be able to figure out the rest on your own. Good luck :)

thank you alooooooooot

i try to change hashing

and


thanks alot dear :)

>A hash table is basically a linked list of linked lists
An array of linked lists you mean. If the table is implemented as a linked list then the time required to traverse to the proper hash index would dominate search times and it's not much of an improvement. If the table is an array then indexing can be done in constant time and then search time is dominated by the length of the chains, which, because they should be short, is very fast.

>my ques. here is
Can you be more specific as to what part of the program you're having trouble with?

you are write but what i want is a linked list insde other linked list

like this picture

and what i can't to write this part
with the this adt

i solved it without this ADT but i should solved it with this ADT:-

Think in terms of template nesting, something like this:

List<List<int, string>, string> list;

Ahh yes, oopsies. But regardless, the program I have written still reads from a text file and puts into a linked list ;)
