Homework assignment. Where do i start?

[Solarsss]

Hey everyone, I recently got an assignment regarding linked lists for my homework in data structures. I haven't used C++ in over a year because I took a break from school and now i'm really overwhelmed on where to start, what is even the syntax for head and tail pointers. I've been reading the book day in and day out and it's only becoming slightly clearer. For the assignment, i'm essentially supposed to write a .cpp implementation file that'll work with the node header and sequence header. The whole linked lists thing is still a little fuzzy with me so any help on where to start, or how i should be thinking to execute this assignment would help. Thanks again.

Please note that this is not a homework site. We won't do your homework for you. The purpose of homework is that you learn by doing. However we are always willing to help solve problems you encountered, correct mistakes you made in your code and answer your questions.

We didn't see your attempts to solve this problem yourself and so we cannot correct mistakes you didn't made and answer questions you didn't ask. To get help you should do something yourself and get real problems with something. If your problem is "I don't understand a thing", then you should go back to basics and study again.


Your job seems to be to write class Sequence.

Forget the internals of a linked list. The assignment says that you do use an existing "toolkit" that has one. You only need to know how to use the toolkit. We don't know it, so we are not its usage manual.

Pointers you do need to understand: http://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/pointers/
