Now the method deployFleet has to use the class ship and the class location. So if my code is like this:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7
void fleet::deployFleet(void){
int i=0;
while(i<fleetSize){
ships[i] = <=== how to i call the pick method from
} class location here?
}
Yeah i have another function check() that will make sure there are no same locations. But I am not allowed to make loc public. It has to stay private. I don't understand how that is possible though.
