I have this homework that i have to write the cxx of a header file. i started the homework but i got stuck in the meddle of it. I tried to find the abs_minimum function but it's too complicated because i have to keep track of the numbers and find it.
This is the header file
// Provided by:
// Email Address:
// FILE: stats.h
// CLASS PROVIDED: statistician
// (a class to keep track of statistics on a sequence of real numbers)
// This class is part of the namespace main_savitch_2C.
//
// CONSTRUCTOR for the statistician class:
// statistician( );
// Postcondition: The object has been initialized, and is ready to accept
// a sequence of numbers. Various statistics will be calculated about the
// sequence.
//
// PUBLIC MODIFICATION member functions for the statistician class:
// void next(double r)
// The number r has been given to the statistician as the next number in
// its sequence of numbers.
// void reset( );
// Postcondition: The statistician has been cleared, as if no numbers had
// yet been given to it.
//
// PUBLIC CONSTANT member functions for the statistician class:
// double abs_maximum( ) const
// Precondition: length( ) > 0
// Postcondition: The return value is the absolute value of the number
// with the largest magnitude in the statistician's sequence.
// double abs_minimum( ) const
// Precondition: length( ) > 0
// Postcondition: The return value is the absolute value of the number
// with the smallest magnitude in the statistician's sequence.
// int length( ) const
// Postcondition: The return value is the length of the sequence that has
// been given to the statistician (i.e., the number of times that the
// next(r) function has been activated).
// double maximum( ) const
// Precondition: length( ) > 0
// Postcondition: The return value is the largest number in the
// statistician's sequence.
// double mean( ) const
// Precondition: length( ) > 0
// Postcondition: The return value is the arithmetic mean (i.e., the
// average of all the numbers in the statistician's sequence).
// double minimum( ) const
// Precondition: length( ) > 0
// Postcondition: The return value is the tinyest number in the
// statistician's sequence.
// double recent( ) const
// Precondition: length( ) > 0
// Postcondition: The return value is the most recent number given to
// the next function.
// double sum( ) const
// Postcondition: The return value is the sum of all the numbers in the
// statistician's sequence.
//
// NON-MEMBER functions for the statistician class:
// statistician operator +(const statistician& s1, const statistician& s2)
// Postcondition: The statistician that is returned contains all the
// numbers of the sequences of s1 and s2.
// statistician operator *(double scale, const statistician& s)
// Postcondition: The statistician that is returned contains the same
// numbers that s does, but each number has been multiplied by the
// scale number.
//
// VALUE SEMANTICS for the statistician class:
// Assignments and the copy constructor may be used with statistician objects.
