CAN SOMEONE HELP ME WITH THIS OR EXPLAIN HOW TO DO IT. Use C++ and linux

1. Create public member functiongetExpDates() forclass ItemList to return the expiration dates in the list. The dates are returned through the dynamically allocated array "expDates" and the function returns the number of dates in the list.

You have to allocate just a big enough array to hold the dates. For example, if there are 10 items in the list, you should allocate an array of 10 dates. Each element in the array is aDate object.

int getExpDates(Date * & expDates) const;

First add the member function prototype insideclass ItemList initemList.h, then put the member function implementation initemList.cppand finally invoke/test the function inmain.

You need to display the retrieved dates. Please label your output clearly.

Hint: remember to allocate the array before you try to populate it and also remember to deallocate the array after you are done using it. If you forget to allocate the array, your code will crash. If you forget to deallocate the array, you will get memory leaks. Many people hate C++ for these two frequently encountered enemies, segmentation fault and memory leaks.
