The following is sample code which demonstrates the implementation of a multi digit, decimal, and negative number infix to postfix converter and evaluator using a Finite State Machine

REQUIRED KNOWLEDGE FOR THIS PROGRAM

How To Convert Infix To Postfix
How To Evaluate A Postfix Expression
What Is A Finite State Machine?

Using a Finite State Machine, the program demonstrated on this page has the ability to convert and evaluate a single digit, multi digit, decimal number, and/or negative number infix equation. So for example, if the the infix equation of (19.87 * -2) was entered into the program, the converted postfix expression of 19.87 ~2* would display to the screen, as well as the final evaluated answer of -39.74.

NOTE: In this program, negative numbers are represented by the “~” symbol on the postfix string. This is used to differentiate between a negative number and a subtraction symbol.

This program has the following flow of control:

• Get an infix expression from the user
• Convert the infix expression to postfix
• Use a Finite State Machine to isolate all of the math operators, multi digit, decimal, negative and single digit numbers that are found in the postfix expression
• Evaluate the postfix expression using the tokens found from the above step
• Display the evaluated answer to the screen

The above steps are implemented below.

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

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++ || 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.

#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.
