C/C++ :: Enter String Into String Array Via Cin Or Getline
Mar 29, 2014
Ok so I searched this site, and google string arrays, but I couldn't find anything on how to create an array to accept string input. In other words the strings are unknown, until the user inputs them..
so code would say input a name..user enters Tom, and its inserted into the array.. and if another name is entered ..lets say Lisa..Lisa is added to the array..so now in the array we have tom and Lisa..
Everything I read only shows the array already having the strings declared...
I came across a strange problem while writing a program using the getline function. I understand that when using the getline function an input string will terminate when the "enter" key is pressed and in the following program it works as one would suspect.
However when I use it in this next program (below) that I have been working on it will only terminate after pressing the "enter" key if the first character is a number, otherwise it will not terminate. So the question is: How do I get it to terminate the string regardless of the input order?
#include <iostream> #include <string> using namespace std; int i = 0, j; int numValue;
[code]....
Additional Info: the purpose of this program is to change a character, which is extracted from a string, into an equivalent numerical value, if the character is an integer, and assign it to an int variable. I plan on eventually adapting it to return the correct value of a multi-character integer such as 123.
My program was to allow the user to enter a value as a C string in the form: xxx,xxx,xxx,xxx,xxx.xx, where x can be any digit. Well, so far here is my attempt. I think the question is, would I have to implement a switch statement for the digits, the comma, and the decimal, so that when a user inputs, let say 52,000.00 the switch statements would read the 1st digit, checks for decimals/commas and if not, proceed to read 2nd digit, and repeat?
Code: #include <iostream> #include <string> int main() { using namespace std; char buffer[256]; char tempBuff[256] = {'
The thing is, when I don't create a prototype of count and straightaway define it before void main() my program runs, but it gives error in this program that "extra parameter in call to count()" But what to do then?
Very new to programming, and I know that there must be another way on inputting a string into each array cells not by just inputting it one by one, but as a whole. My code at the meantime is: [URL]
My assignment is : Please use C type strings ( array representation of strings). Write a program that will ask the user to enter a string. It will then regard that string as a worked-on string and allow the user to perform the following editing functions on it:
s – search i – insert a – append d – delete a – append d – delete r – replace e – exit s – search
This option will allow the user to search for a specified string in the worked-on string. If the string is
found, it will display the starting index (position) of the searched string in the worked-on string.
here is what i have so far.
#include <iostream> #include <cstring> using namespace std; int main() { char a_string[80];
/*assume array is already initialized and declared and is of array type string.*/
int i = 2; int j = 1; string newvalue; cout<<"Current value at array[i][j] is "<<array[i][j]<<endl; cout<<"Enter new value "<<endl; cin>>newvalue; array[i][j]= newvalue; //PROBLEM IS IN THIS LINE. cout<<endl; cout<<array[i][j]<<endl;
I'm having lots of trouble with storing a cin string text into a string array. It just seem that after I cin newvalue, the program crashes. Is this way of storing it considered illegal? I'm just a beginner with 5 months of coding experience in C++.
I'm trying to "tokenize" a string using std::string functions, but I stored the text in a char array. When I try to convert it to a string, the string has the first character right but the rest is garbage.
// Get value from ListBox. char selectedValue[256]; memset(selectedValue, NULL, 256); SendMessage(GetDlgItem(hWnd, IDC_LB_CURRENTSCRIPT), LB_GETTEXT, selectedIndex, (LPARAM)selectedValue); // Convert to string. string val(selectedValue);
I am trying to copy a string to an array of string. I have used these two examples before and they have worked so I don't understand why they won't work this time. I am getting a segmentation fault.
[URL]... [URL]...
I remembered to initialize everything.
char *strings_mneumonic_table[503] = {0}; char mneumonic[20] = {0}; int start_address = 0; int hash = 0; if(line[0] == 32)
[Code]...
Here is my output
hash is 2 little start BIG START 32 group mneumonic is START hash is 2 Segmentation fault (core dumped)
What is the efficiency of the two assignments (line 1 and 2), i.e. (function calls, number of copies made, etc), also the Big O notation. I know there are function calls for retrieving the size of each string in order to produce a new buffer for the concatenated string...any difference between line 1 and 2 in terms of efficiency?
String s("Hello"); String t("There"); 1. s = s + t; 2. s += t;
Ok, so I'm writing this code and when I build it keeps saying cannot implicitely convert type int to string even though I declared my variables as string. Why is it giving me this error?
private static string Repair() { string result=""; string beep; string spin; Console.WriteLine("Does your computer beep on startup?:(y,n)");
I would like to understand a function on strings. Below is a code that I took from my teacher where the user inputs a string and prints out the length of the string.
Code: #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> int main() { char str[100]; int i = 0;
[Code] ....
Now I understand that it returns the count in "int" so my question is:
Let's say i declared
Code: int count = 0; at the beginning of the code and then made Code: count = strlen(str); why wouldn't i have the same result? Is there a way to do it also?
I have this string d ="3 J JD, K" and i want to split the string to individual string. I have this code which eliminates the comma but doesn't split the string into individual string.
#include <iostream> #include <string> #include <sstream> using namespace std; int main() { string str = "3 J JD,K"; stringstream ss(str);
[Code] ....
Output of the code is 3 J JD k
but I want 3 J JD K
Also after I split the string is there any way to put the split string into individual string variables.
I have problem with string compare. I want to compare the string user input with a string in binary. And I don't know how to do it. Problem in function login();Here is the code: And you also can download file in attachment too..
In this code, i declared a string constant and trying to print the length of string. I know that if i write char a1[7] or char a1[] than it runs and give aggregate output, but in this case it is giving double length of string.
I wrote a program that reads a list from a file and stores it in a string type vector. Now, I want the user to input a word so that the program can search the vector to see if that word already exists. I have used every possible way of reading input from the console and storing it in order to compare with the vector but it never results in a match. When I print the input string and the vector string they are exactly the same thing (or at least print to the console as if they were). I've tried using getline; using cin direct to a string var; using cin to a char array and then casting to string using string str(arr); I even added a newline at the end just in case and STILL I cannot get a match.
vector <string> currentSet; //read a list in from a file and has 9 items in it cin.ignore(); string line; getline(cin, line); if(line == vector[0]){//if printed to console line is HEAT and vector[0] is HEAT cout<<"match"<<endl; }
write a program that prompts the user to input a string and outputs the string in uppercase letters. (Use a character array to store the string.) Does this follow the criteria? This program is very similar to one I found on these forums but I have one problem, it outputs everything backwards! EX: dogs will output to SGOD. What I need to do to make it output correctly, I think it may have to do with getline?
#include <iostream> #include <cctype> #include <cstring> using namespace std; int main() { char let[100]; cout << "Enter what you would like to be UPPERCASE: ";
I made a simple little program that takes text from the clipboard, and spits out all the lines I've copied one at a time (so my program can analyze it).
everything works perfectly, except, it spits it own in the wrong order, I want it to spit out from bottom to top. but currently it spits out the data from top to bottom. here is my code :
Code: #include <iostream> #include <Windows.h> #include <string> #include <sstream> using namespace std; int main() { HANDLE clip; // assigns the var. clip to hold a handle ID.
[Code] .....
I want this loop to run backwards! Like it say's what I want to work backwards. Where as I know how to flip a while loop like this: while(x < 5), how to flip a loop like the one I'm using. how I can do this?
I have the codes for such a problem where, to create a program that counts how many times the second string appears on the first string. Yes it counts if you put 1 letter only, but if you put 2, it is an error. As an example. If the first string is Harry Partear, and the second string is ar, it must count as 3. Here's the code:
Code:
#include <iostream> #include <conio.h> using namespace std; int main ()
I am stuck in this program, Be given a string of chars, where each single char belongs to the following alphabet: a..zA..Z0..9 (So, in the string there are only lowercases, uppercases and digits. No blank, no comma, ...). For every char of the given alphabet, count how many times in the string
1-- the char belong to a sequence of identical chars whose length is at least three (i.e.: in the string cc74uyrpfccc348fhsjcccc3848djccccc484jd for three times the character 'c' satisfies this condition)
these function do the same of the sprintf() function. but instead we use a variable for add the result, i want to return the result. when i use it:
string f; f=ToString("hello world"); gives me several errors: "error: crosses initialization of 'std::string f'" "error: jump to case label [-fpermissive]"
