Final answer:
The student needs to create a new Sheep object pointer and set its age and weight properties using the values read from input.
The provided code snippet in C++ shows how to declare, instantiate and initialize the properties of a new Sheep object.
Step-by-step explanation:
The student is asking about creating and manipulating a sheep object in a programming context. Assuming the language used is C++ (as the concept of pointers and objects suggests), you would first need to have a class named Sheep defined. Then, you can create a pointer to a new Sheep object and set its age and weight values. Below is an example of how you could write this:
class Sheep {
public:
int age;
double weight;
// Other members and functions
};
int main() {
int agevalue;
double weightvalue;
cin >> agevalue >> weightvalue;
Sheep* mysheep = new Sheep();
mysheep->age = agevalue;
mysheep->weight = weightvalue;
// Output or further processing can be done here
delete mysheep; // Don't forget to free the allocated memory!
return 0;
}
The above code assumes you have included the necessary headers and used the correct namespaces (e.g., #include and using namespace std; for the standard library i/o).
