Search through a linked list for the value X

[APEJMAN]

I am trying to write a function to
find(x) -- Searches through the list for the value x and returns an Iterator pointing to the first node containing value x. If x is not found in the list, it returns an Iterator pointing to NULL. ( I want to use linear search that starts from one end and checks each element one by one.
so I wrote this code:

//find function
template<typename T>
void LinkedList<T>::find(T value)
{
    Node<T>* pos=first;
    while(pos){
        if (pos.get()==value){
            return pos;
        }
        else{
            pos=pos->next;
        }
    }
return pos=NULL;
 
}

so now lets say in the main part we have

iter2 = rebelList2.find("book");

but my code dosent work
would you help me?
thanks

I changed the program to this:

but still dosent work
.................................................. .................

//find function
template<typename T>
Iterator<T> LinkedList<T>::find(T value) 
{
 
    bool Found;
    Iterator<T> iter;
    iter.position=first;
 
 
   Found = false;
 
   while ((! Found) && (iter.position!=NULL)){
       if (iter.position->data == value)
         return iter;
      else
          iter.position->next;
   }
 
   iter.position=first->prev;
   return iter ;
   }

Use the STL list template.

You have another post with more linked list code that is in trouble. Please stop tortuing yourself, and us.

You know, we find it rude when posters create multiple threads on the same question (is this three on linked lists for you now?), and ask things that can be answered with a simple Google search.

It's also interesting to me that you get upset when weaknessforcats - the most prolific and knowledgable poster in the C/C++ forum - shows you the correct answer. You became upset when we (weaknessforcats) helped you. And we (weaknessforcats) are rude because of it... yeah... hmm...
