C++ || Snippet – Custom Template Linked List Sample Code

This page will consist of sample code for a singly linked list, which is loosely based on the built in C++ “List” library. Provided in the linked list class are the following functions:

From the following, the functions of interest to look out for are the “Delete, Display, Replace, InsertBefore, InsertAfter, and InsertInOrder” functions as they are typically used as programming assignments in many C++ Data structures courses to further demonstrate how linked lists operate.

===== DEMONSTRATION HOW TO USE =====

Use of the above template class is the same as its STL counterpart. Here is a sample program demonstrating its use.

Once compiled, you should get this as your output

** These are names of fruits sorted in order using the 'InsertInOrder()' function:

Apple
Orange
Plum
Tomato

There is currently 4 items in the list

** Here is the same list with the word 'Plum' deleted
using the 'Delete()' function:

Apple
Orange
Tomato

There is currently 3 items in the list

** Now the word 'Bike' will be added to the list,
right after the word 'Apple' using the 'InsertAfter()' function:

Apple
Bike
Orange
Tomato

There is currently 4 items in the list

** Now the name 'Jessica' will be added to the list,
right before the word 'Orange' using the 'InsertBefore()' function:

Apple
Bike
Jessica
Orange
Tomato

There is currently 5 items in the list

** The word 'Orange' will now be replaced with the name,
'Kat' using the 'Replace()' function:

Apple
Bike
Jessica
Kat
Tomato

There is currently 5 items in the list

C++ || Snippet – Singly Linked List Custom Template Queue Sample Code

This page will consist of sample code for a custom singly linked list template queue. This implementation differs from the previously highlighted doubly linked list in that this version uses a single node to store its data rather than using two separate nodes (front and rear).

C++ || Snippet – Doubly Linked List Custom Template Queue Sample Code

This page will consist of sample code for a custom doubly linked list template queue. This implementation is considered a doubly linked list because it uses two nodes to store data in the queue – a ‘front’ and a ‘rear’ node. This is not a circular linked list, nor does it link forwards and/or backwards.

C++ || Class & Input/Output – Display The Contents Of A User Specified Text File To The Screen

The following is another intermediate homework assignment which was presented in a C++ programming course. This program was assigned to introduce more practice using the class data structure, which is very similar to the struct data structure.

REQUIRED KNOWLEDGE FOR THIS PROGRAM

Class - What Is It?
How To Read Data From A File
String - Getline
Array - Cin.Getline
Strcpy - Copy Contents Of An Array
#Define

This program first prompts the user to input a file name. After it obtains a file name from the user, it then attempts to display the contents of the user specified file to the output screen. If the file could not be found, an error message appears. If the file is found, the program continues as normal. After the file contents finishes being displayed, a summary indicating the total number of lines which has been read is also shown to the screen.

This program was implemented into 3 different files (two .cpp files, and one header file .h). So the code for this program will be broken up into 3 sections, the main file (.cpp), the header file (.h), and the implementation of the functions within the header file (.cpp).

Note: The data file that is used in this example can be downloaded here.

Also, in order to read in the data .txt file, you need to save the .txt file in the same directory (or folder) as your .cpp file is saved in. If you are using Visual C++, this directory will be located in

Documents > Visual Studio 2010 > Projects > [Your project name] > [Your project name]

======== FILE #1 – Main.cpp ========

======== FILE #2 – CFileDisp.h ========

Remember, you need to name the header file the same as the #include from the Main.cpp file. This file contains the function declarations, but no implementation of those functions takes place here.

======== FILE #3 – CFileDisp.cpp ========

This is the function implementation file for the CFileDisp.h class. This file can be named anything you wish as long as you #include “CFileDisp.h”


QUICK NOTES:

The code is heavily commented, so no further insight is necessary. If you have any questions, feel free to leave a comment below.

C++ || Stack Based Postfix Evaluation (Single Digit)

This page consists of another homework assignment which was presented in a C++ Data Structures course. While the previously discussed program dealt with converting Infix expressions to Postfix, this program will demonstrate exactly how to evaluate them.

NOTE: Want to convert & evaluate multi digit, decimal, and negative numbers? Click here!

REQUIRED KNOWLEDGE FOR THIS PROGRAM

What Is Postfix?

Cin.getline
How To Evaluate Postfix Expressions
The Order Of Operations
#include "ClassStackType.h"

The title of this page is called – “Stack Based Postfix Evaluation (Single Digit).” Why “single digit?” The program demonstrated on this page has the ability to evaluate a postfix equation, but it only has the ability to evaluate single digit values. What do I mean by that? Consider the infix equation: 5+2. When that expression is converted to postfix, it will come out to be: 52+, and the answer will be 7 (5+2=7). But what if we have an equation like 12+2? When that expression is converted to postfix, it will come out to be: 122+. The postfix conversion is correct, but when you try to evaluate the expression, we do not know if the math operation should be 12+2 or 1+22, it can be read either way.

Question: So why is this program being displayed if it only works for single digits?
Answer: Because it demonstrates the process of evaluating postfix equations very well.

Before we get into things, here is a helpful algorithm for evaluating a postfix expression in pseudo code:

Once you understand the process of converting from infix to postfix, adding the ability to evaluate multiple digits within this program should be doable.
