Answer to Question #47987 in C++ for zinkarocks

Question

Problem statement
ANZ call centre receives hundreds of calls per day and they want an efficient way to
handle all the receiving calls. The clear directive from customer service department is to
give fair chance to each customer on first come first serve basis.

Requirements
To solve the above problem you will need a queue data structure to keep all the receiving
calls. Recall queue uses First In First Out (FIFO) principle. Customer service consultants
can take a caller at a time from the queue and the queue is open for other callers. A caller
must leave a name and message and hang up the phone so that a consultant could attend to
him/her when the caller gets his/her chance from the queue.
It is clear from the given description that you would need to have queue of callers where
for each caller you must store the phone number, name and message attributes. Assume
the capacity of the queue cannot be more than 10.
