The applications should be fairly easy to run if you are running linux(Debian based) with the latest version of the g++ compiler installed. All right so this is what you need to do:

1. Get all the dependencies listed in the dependencies section.
2. "g++ -o YahooWeatherSearch main.cpp WeatherTree.cpp -lcurl -l json -std=c++11", this should generate a file called YahooWeatherSearch that you can run using "./YahooWeatherSearch locations.txt"
