A little help using some functions for a Heap

[wishbone34]

Hi, I have a question regarding the use of a couple functions I have for an assignment.. first here is the header file that im trying to use
//---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
struct DataType
{
int key;
string name;
};


class Heap
{
public:
bool insert(DataType inData);
bool retrieve (DataType& outData);
void traverse (void(*doit)(DataType& outData));
bool empty();
bool full();
void dump();
void print(DataType x);
Heap(int maxHeapSize=100);




private:
int size;
int max_size;
DataType* array;
bool reheapUp(int nodeIndex);
bool reheapDown(int nodeIndex);
void swap (DataType& x, DataType& y);
inline int getLeftChildIndex(int nodeIndex);
inline int getRightChildIndex(int nodeIndex);
inline int getParentIndex(int nodeIndex);
};
//--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
and here is the function I am having a problem with, all I would like to know is how do I go about using this function in the main() program, what parameter would I have to enter into the function call so that it inserts a new number(int) into the heap(which has been formed by using an array implementation).

bool Heap::insert(DataType x)
{

if(size>=max_size)
return false;

array[size++]=x;
reheapUp(size-1);
return true;
}

I want to be able to do something along the lines of
heap.insert(5);//if I wanted to add the int 5 to the heap
or maybe I need to do something like,
heap.insert(array[5])?
as a call in the main function. I assume I need to change some things In the header file to be able to use this function in that way.

Any incite would be much appreciated, thanks!

According to your own function declaration the parameter to the 'insert' function
should be of type 'DataType'.
