output an array class member

[pizza]

Hello guys thanks in advance for your interest!
What is the conventional way to output data stored in your array class member?
not using a void member function and ostream.
I guess I need a function(maybe returning a pointer pointing to the array)
but how..? Please let me know how you would do in this case. That will be sincerely appreciated

this is my header

 #include <string>
 #include <cassert>
  class bag
{ 
 public
  static const unsigned short CAPACITY =10;
  bag();
  ~bag();
  void add(const std::string&)
  private
  std::string obj[CAPACITY];
  unsigned short numOfobj;
}

This is my implemenation

const unsigned short bag::CAPACITY;
bag::bag(): numOfobj(0)
{
}
bag::~bag()
{
}
void bag::add(const std::string& strIn)
{
  assert (numOfobj<CAPACITY);
  ojb[numOfobj] = strIn;
 ++numOfobj;
}

This is my demo

int main()
{
  bag temp;
   temp.add("Apples");
   temp.add("Peachs");
   temp.add("Grapes");
 
  // How do I output the data here?? 
  return 0;
}

Ideally, you'd overload the << operator so you could say something like:

bag temp;
...
cout << temp << '\n';

If you haven't studied overloaded operators yet then create a member function called print() that will print out the members:

class bag {
public:
   ...
   void print(ostream &os)
   {
        // add code to print the strings to os
   }
};

And then in your main program:

int main()
{
  bag temp;
   temp.add("Apples");
   temp.add("Peachs");
   temp.add("Grapes");
 
   temp.print(cout);
  return 0;
}
