Here is the code I have

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;

void push_t(int j)
//---------------------------------------------------
// Accepts a value and pushes it onto the stack top
// Precondition: if keyset = 0 the deque does not yet exits
// deque is a structure with int j for data
// Postcondition: values are pushed onto the stack and
// the value of stackpointer is incremented
//If the structure does not exist it is created.
//in which case the top and bottom are the same cell
//----------------------------------------------------
{
  
  if (keyset==0){keyset=1;//create deque
    Top =new bx;
    Top->prior=NULL;
    Top->next=NULL;
    Top->key=j;
    
    Bottom=Top;
    
  }//push onto top
  else{
    Topx =new bx;
    Topx->key=j;
    Topx->next=NULL;
    Topx->prior=NULL;
    Top->prior=Topx;
    Topx->next=Top;
    Top=Topx;
    
  }
  
}
//end of push_t
//---------------------------------

void pop_t(int &n,int &r)
//---------------------------------------------------
// Pops a number off the top of the queue and returns it
// Precondition:the deque may or may not exist
// Postcondition: values are popped off the stack and

{r=0;
  if (keyset==0){cout<<"Empty"<<endl<<endl;n=NULL;r=1; return;}//empty deque
  
  if(Top->next==NULL)// One item only in deque
    {

I have to create a double ended queue. I got this code to work with, but I dont know how to declare the variables on this. Especially when you have something like "Top->key=j;" Just looking for some ideas to get started. Thanks.

1. This is C++, so where are your classes?
2. Top/Bottom etc would be member data of that class.
3. The push and pop would be member functions of that class.

Then your main code would be like

myQueue var;
var.push_t(22);

> I got this code to work with,
Got from who?
Is this a "Here's some broken code, make it work" exercise?

> Top =new bx; bx is a struct or a class Top is a pointer to a bx
