Train

Created a train as a custom doubly linked list where users can add/remove train cars, update products on a specific train, and display information in various formats.

Description

Remember when we used to play with trains/cars (toys)? We used to put stuff on cars and make them travel through the house. It's fun, right? Would you like to play with it again? Well, this project can help you with that. Instead of playing with a physical toy car, this project would allow you to build a text-based train car. Initially, you would have an empty train. There will be a menu listing all the available commands. You can add a custom train car by calling the insert command, where you have to provide information such as the weight and length. After the insertion, you may put products on the train. It can be apples, gold, or even Hydrogen bombs. Of course, if you no longer need a specific train car, you can delete it by moving to that car and calling the remove command. In conclusion, when running this program, you're the God Of Creation, controlling how the train appears.

Functionalities of the program:

• Insert train car
• Remove train car
• Move to the previous/next train car
• Update product load
• Search for a specific product
• Display train/manifest
• Remove dangerous cars
