    Question Testing a list in a Class

    Hi,

    I'm supposed to implement a class which stores a list and then write a giant, exhausting test list in main.

    I know how to implement the class, but I'm not sure whether that list should be in public or private (I'm assuming public, but not sure), and how to go about creating the list?

    Would it just look like?

    Code:
    class SmList
    {
     private:
       int a, b, c, d, e, f;
    }
    Or did I just miss the class on creating lists in classes?

    Cheers,
    eskEMO

    That seems more likely. A list should be allowed to hold more than a set number of objects. Have you learned arrays or pointers yet? Those are the most common ways of storing a list.

    The data in the list should be private, and there should be public functions that allow you to add to the list and get values from the list.
