linked lists

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.

heavyc

#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...
