The following program Assignment#2 was assigned to us a few weeks ago. I understood that assignment. Our professor told us soon we would be editting it to run more efficient. We have now been introduced to struct nodes. Needless to say, I am very confused. Our new assignment is due soon. Any help is appreciated.

linked lists can be pretty confusion topic. you might want to study about them in more depth. Read one or more of the many tutorials you will find. Your text book should also have a chapter or two about them.

we were introduced to classes as well. should I use a class node instead of a struct node? should the functions to decrement the sodas be part of the data in the node or should it be separate? do I need two pointers or one to traverse the nodes and find the correct info to be used during use? thank you for your prompt response.

we were introduced to classes as well. should I use a class node instead of a struct node?

"struct" and "class" in C++ are actually the same thing with one very subtle difference - "struct" defaults to all members public, "class" defaults to all members private (use the public/private/protected keywords if the visibility of a member needs to be different). Which one you use is up to you, although, typicallylly 'struct' is used for simple data structures containing no functions, overloaded operators, etc.

For a linked list, you are undoubtedly going to be including functions, so 'class' would be the more idiomatic choice - It is considered good style to make your data members private and provide public functions as an interface to access the data.

should the functions to decrement the sodas be part of the data in the node or should it be separate?

As a rule of thumb, put the function to manipulate the data inside the structure in which that data is kept (keeping the data private means that non-member functions can't access it anyway).

do I need two pointers or one to traverse the nodes and find the correct info to be used during use?

Judging by your assignment, you are only going to traverse the list in one direction, so you only need a single pointer to the next element.

I had a little trouble with linked lists when I was learning.. so I whipped up a little something to get you started:

Unless you modify the path in get_soda_config(), you will need to have a .txt file in your c:\ folder with the information arranged like this:

RootBeer .75 0
Grape .75 15
Cola .75 2
LemonLime .80 1
CreamSoda .80 10

The lines can be in any order as long as they maintain the product price quantity format.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Erm how much is he paying you? :rolleyes:

Good stuff though, I like the little ascii art. Do you really have that much free time on your hands?
