Hi Guys,
Here's the situation that im stuck in.
I have 2 Header files which cannot be changed named bintree and bindnode. These define tree structure, aswell as several other functions eg inserting node, printing node etc
I have 2 Classes.
1 Class is :
class mazePoint
{int x;
char c;
}
Which has declare int x (for a character position) and char c;
2 Class is :
class mazeRow
{ bintree<mazePoint> row;
int y;}
Which has declared a tree of the mazepoints, with a int y for row number.
My problem is as follows : When i print the points out itself i get the characters each in a new line. This is because the print function (which cannot be changed) is as follows
void print() const {
if (left != NULL) left->print();
std::cout << nodeData.toString() << "\n";
if (right != NULL) right->print();
the "\n" makes a new line for each character so out come is as follows
#
#
#
#
#
#
#
s
#
and so forth - versus
#######s # (how it should be - a row)
this is becuase i am doing the toString function in mazePoint.
string mazePoint::toString() const
{
stringstream line;
string s;
line << c;
return line.str();
}
i tried move the toString function to mazeRow, but dont know what to call i.e in the above one it is using the char c (which stores the value).
I want to be able to print c as a row, rather than just print c.
Does anyone know how to do this.
I was thinking using the -> from mazeRow for int value y to a char to print.
But dont know how to do this.
Anyone have an idea. this is really important (for an assignment due soon).
