Listing points in TextEdit

[mattis16]

I've got a console program representing points on the plane and now i want to the window program (on linux). I have done button "List points" and i want it to write them in QPlainTextEdit (unless there isn't a better option). In console program i listed this points using function:

cout << set1

cout << set1

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

Is it possible to do it in qt?

Yes it is possible in Qt.

This should be simple, if you know how to create a basic QWidget based GUI, and add standard display widgets to it

I'm beginner and i don't know how to do that, but i have to this today :/
I forgot to attach operator << overloading:

std::ostream& operator<< (std::ostream& os, const Set& st)
{
  if (st.size() == 0) os << "NULL";
  for (long i=0; i<st.size(); i++)
  {
    if ((i%5 == 0)) os << std::endl;
    os << st[i] << ", ";
  }
  os << std::endl;
  return os;
}

std::ostream& operator<< (std::ostream& os, const Set& st)
{
  if (st.size() == 0) os << "NULL";
  for (long i=0; i<st.size(); i++)
  {
    if ((i%5 == 0)) os << std::endl;
    os << st[i] << ", ";
  }
  os << std::endl;
  return os;
}

Could you help me with it?

If this is a school project then we can't help you much, otherwise you will not learn. I can give you a hint that dumping those points to a text edit box is not better than dumping them to a console. It would be more interesting if you drawn a graphical representation of those points or at least if you displayed the points in a list (such as QListWidget).

It's not a school project. I'm helping my friend with c++ and i'm stuck only with it... He has tomorrow a test and i have to explain it to him.
This points have to be listed, not drawn on the plot.

Thanks.
I've made something like that

void Surface::write(const Set& st)
{
    QString output;
    for (long i=0; i<st.size(); i++)
      {
        if (i%5 == 0) {
            Main->appendPlainText(output);
            output.clear();
        }else{
            output.append(QString::number(st[i]) + ", ");
        }
      }
}

void Surface::write(const Set& st)
{
    QString output;
    for (long i=0; i<st.size(); i++)
      {
        if (i%5 == 0) {
            Main->appendPlainText(output);
            output.clear();
        }else{
            output.append(QString::number(st[i]) + ", ");
        }
      }
}

and put it into set.cc (supporting class Set from set.h) and i've got an error:

/home/matthew/Dewsktop/QT Project/QT-build-desktop/../QT/Set.cc:176: error:no matching function for call to ‘QString::number(Surface)’

/home/matthew/Dewsktop/QT Project/QT-build-desktop/../QT/Set.cc:176: error:no matching function for call to ‘QString::number(Surface)’

What should i do to get rid of that error?
