C ++ reading a textfile into linked list

text file:

Humpty Dumpty sat on the wall
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall
all the kings horses and all the kings men
could not put Humpty Dumpty back together again
---------------------------------------------------

pls help me because my dead line is 2 days away...:-|

Try something like this! Remember to #include <list>

void Standard::get_list()
{
    char filename[16];
    char variable;

    cout << "Please enter a filename: ";
    cin >> filename;

    fstream instream(filename);

    if(instream.fail())
    {
        cout << "Input file opening failed.\n";
        exit(1);
    }

    while (instream >> variable)
        list1.push_back (variable);

    cout << "\nThe contents of your file: \n" << endl;

    for (i=list1.begin(); i != list1.end(); i++)
    {
        cout << *i << " " << endl;
    }
}

thank you!
