I have to design and implement a new linked class called StudentList, to represent and manipulate the records of students enrolled in a course. The data field for each record in StudentList must contain:
student name (string type)
studentId (int) (from 0 to 10000)
dept (string)
major (string)
In the program you should:
1) add a student record to StudentList. Initially you should create an empty list and then add
records to it. The records should be added in such a way that, they are placed serially, a student
with lower studentId should be placed first in the list.
2) Delete a student record from any location.
3) Print out the entire StudentList as shown below. You should overloaded << operator for
displaying the list.
studentId Name Dept Major
1234 Naveen ECE Computer Engineering
2435 John Mechanical Aerospace Engineering
10000 Annie Bio-Medical ---------
4) Merge the records of two StudentList's into one list , again the records should be in increasing order of studentId.
Your program should offer the menu to user:
1. Add a student record to StudentList1.
2. Delete a record from StudentList1.
3. Print StudentList1.
4. Add a student record to StudentList2.
5. Delete a record from StudentList2.
6. Print StudentList1.
7. Merge StudentList1 and StudentList2 into a single list and display result.
8. Exit.
You should exit from the program only on choosing option 8, for all other options, after performing the task, user should be presented with the menu again. You should prompt user to select only from options 1 to 8, in case he presses anything other than that.
I got everything to work except the merge function which just doesn't seem to work. If someone could please help me out with the merge part of it, I'd really appreciate it. Here's what I have so far. I commented out the merge portion of it. Thanks.
