linked list printing using while loop and combining like terms
- by C Z
i have a problem printing out my linked list. My program asks the user to enter many different coefficients and degrees and makes it a polynomial and using mergesort it sorts it and then prints it, now i want to combine like terms and i have a problem doing so.
thats part of my function that i don't know what is wrong with it:
Term* p;
p=poly;
if (p==0)
cout<<"---empty list---";
while(p !=0)
if (p->coef==(p->next)->coef){
cout<<(p->deg)+((p->next)->deg)<<"x^"<<(p->coef)<<endl;
p=p->next;}
if (p->coef !=(p->next)->coef){
cout<<p->deg<<"x"<<p->coef<<"+";
p=p->next;}
cout<<endl;
}
and thats my struct:
struct Term {
int deg;
float coef;
Term *next;
};
typedef Term* Poly;
