Help With Linked Lists - Struggling to Get Started

[heavyc]

I was wondering if anyone can help me with linked lists?
I have to create a linked list with 10 random numbers rangeing from 1-5 and insert them into a node in the appriote postion of a linearly linked list and display the number of times each number of occurences of each item. and i have to create a function that would delete the replicate items in the linked list and only leave one of the same numbers. and then display the linked list sorted and unique.

I am having trouble starting this out because my teacher sucks and the book is horrible. I have tried help from computer people but it is still not sticking. I am sure if someone can help me get started i can probably get the rest done but i have no idea to get this started because i have only used c++.net and the teacher wants it done in c++6.0 so that is some of the trouble i am having so if someone can help i would be grateful.

some code i think

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

struct node {
int data;
node *next;
};

struct node *push_front ( node *list, int data )
{
node *p = new node;

p->data = data;
p->next = list;
list = p;

return list;
}

int main()
{
node *list = 0;
node *save;

for ( int i = 0; i < 10; i++ )
list = push_front ( list, rand() % 5 + 1 );

while ( list != 0 ) {
save = list->next;
cout<< list->data <<' ';
delete list;
list = save;
}

cout<<'\n';
}

can someone please check me on this and see if this is a good start...

I understand that learning new concepts and skills can be challenging, especially when the resources available are not helpful. It is important to approach learning with patience and determination, and to seek out additional resources when needed. In this case, it may be helpful to look for online tutorials or guides on how to create and manipulate linked lists in C++6.0. Additionally, reaching out to classmates or joining a study group can provide valuable support and assistance. Remember to break down the task into smaller, manageable steps and to seek help when needed. With perseverance and the right resources, you will be able to successfully complete this task. Good luck!
