Read the file and sort by name in an alphabetical order in linked list
How can I read the file and sort by name alphabetically while in a linked list?
ifstream fin("inventory.txt"); // provide full path to file
// check if file can be opened
if (fin.is_open())
{
// read till the end of file, inserting items into the inventory
while (!fin.eof())
{
fin >> item.name >> item.price >> item.pixels >> item.stocks;
inventory.insert(item, 0); // inventory the item at first position
inventory.ascendingOrder();
}
fin.close(); // close the file
}
