Default Any CompSci majors out there?

I need help with a DoubleOrderedList. If you can help me, please reply or PM me. I basically need to get this file done, and I will finally be finished with the class (ITEC 220). Thanks!

It's like a DoubleList, but it's Ordered. We are being asked to input passengers (using a GUI) into this Double Ordered List, so that they are stored by last name alphabetically. This DoubleOrderedList only needs one method (add method) , so that we can add a new passenger.

Is DoubleOrderedList a function? What are you programming in?

By DoubleOrderedList do you mean an ordered doubly linked list?

I've never heard it called a double ordered list before. Besides, if you're going to cheat on your programming assignments the least you could do is do google searches for doubly linked lists :P

I'm not trying to cheat on the assignment. I didn't ask for someone to give me the program.. just seeing if anyone could explain it better than the professor here.

well im not sure about this ordered list, but im guessing you would do something along the lines of reading in the passenger name, then cross checkin the first couple letters with each last name in the list with a simple for loop, then place it in. i hope that helps a little if at all.

Damn I must be out of the loop when it comes to new age programming terms or somethin. but then again I never really did learn the terms, I just knew how to do it. I'm still wondering what prog. language we're talkn about here.

Linked Lists aren't new :P

Insertion into linked lists is the most difficult part of the data structure. Chosing where to put it should be fairly easy if you have a functioning search algorithm for the list.
