Как исправить ошибку при попытке привязать ': basic_string ‹char› ›&' и ': basic_string ‹char››' в cpp?

Мой код не компилируется, и я не знаю, как это исправить. Похоже, проблема связана с оператором =, но я не уверен. Я пытаюсь применить заданную функцию к элементам отсортированного списка, чтобы получить другой отсортированный список, но в нем говорится, что я использую аргументы, отличные от ожидаемых. Мой код выглядит так:

#include <iostream>
#include <cstring>
#include <string>

    {
        Node *m_ptr;              // pointer to current node in the list
    public:

            m_ptr = node;

        return head;
    }
    Iterator end() {
        return Iterator(nullptr);
    }
};


#endif

А главное выглядит так -

#include <iostream>
#include "sortedList.h"
#include "dummy.h"

bool func(Dummy num) {
    int number = num.get();
    if (number % 2 != 0) {
        return false;
    }
    return true;
}

string getLen(string str)
{
    return std::to_string(str.length());
}

int main() {
    std::cout << "Hello, World!" << std::endl;

    LinkedList <string> myList;
    myList.insert("yosi");
    myList.insert("Rikki");
    myList.insert("Pavel <3");
    cout << "Now printing myList" << endl;
    myList.print();

    LinkedList<string> new_list;
    new_list = myList.apply(getLen);
    cout << "Now printing new_list" << endl;
    new_list.print();

    return 0;
}

Ошибка, которую я получаю, -
