C/C++ :: Length Of String Object?
May 7, 2014consider the following code:
string input;
getline( std::cin, input )
In the code above, what is the maximum number of characters that can be read into variable input?

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?
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.
Code:
#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
#include<string.h>
void main()
}
[code]....
I'm trying some codes about string arrays and taking array length. But i have some problems. I can't get length of string and can't send to a function.
------------------------
#include<iostream>
#include<cstring>
#include<string>
using namespace std;
void GetLength(string);
std::string Words[]={"table","gun","programming"};
int main()
{std::string InputWord;
[Code]...
And how can send Matrix to other function?
int t;
string a;
cin>>t;
getline(cin,a);
int len=a.length();
cout<<a<<" "<<len;
[code].....
why is the length 0?what can I do to get the correct length of the input string?
I can't find any method of retrieving the length of an array except for doing this:
string first[] = {"a","be","see"};
int length = sizeof(first)/sizeof(first[0])
This is a very unconventional way of getting the length of an array.
first->length() would return 1 because it returns the number of letters in the first element of the array (which actually makes no logical sense).
first.size() would return 1 aswell as it's practically the same thing.
Since getting the length of an array is such a fundamental feat, how come I can't find a decent method of doing it?
Is there no buildt in method for this? If there is not, why has it not been implemented in the std?
The input consists of one or more packets followed by a line containing only # that signals the end of the input. Each packet is on a line by itself, does not begin or end with a space, and contains from 1 to 255 characters.
it said 1 to 255 characters
i have to use getline(cin,str);
i tried str[255] but some error happen
I am stuck here.
printf(" Enter a line of Morse Code for decrypting");
scanf("%s",phr);
len=strlen(phr);
for(a=0;a<36;a++) {
if(strcmp(phr, morse[a])==0)
printf("%c", alpha[a]);
};printf(" ");
The output :
[output] Enter line to encrypt:
..... -.... --...
converting...
5 [/output]
It should read all code, including null. between coded letter one space, between coded word three spaces.
The output should be:
[output]
56 7 [/output]
Any way to get the length of a string? I have tried:
str.length
str.size
strlen()

I manage to split this str = "abc,def,123"
to s1 = "abc", s2 = "def", s3 = "123" with this piece of code using find and substr.
string str, s1, s2, s3;
getline(cin, str);
unsigned pos1 = str.find(",");
[Code] ....
But what should I do if the len of the string is unknown ?
For example, str = "abc,def,123,ghi,jkl,456,mno" and so on...

int processString(xxx)

return non-null terminated string length

To make the function work better we change its internals
PHP Code:
int processString(xxx)
{
//do something
return null terminated string length
}
This phenomenon can be observed by use of mutibyte to wide char conversions, string copy , concatenation functions of MS etc ....
Should I minus one in the return value of the second function to match both versions ?
What I'm trying to do is to assign the length of a string to an integer variable. This is what i tried, it did not work.
Code:
printf("Enter a string
");
fgets(test_pass, 30, stdin);
strcpy(x,(strlen(test_pass)));
printf("%d", x);
This was just a test, and it did not compile. How to do this?
I want to read a string of unknown length from stdin. I tried to follow the approach from this link. URL....My code is like this:
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int n;
cin >> n;
cout << "The value of n is " << n << endl;
}
[code]......
What I have noticed is that if I take integer input from cin (cin >> n;) in the above code before getline, the control does not stop on getline to take str as input from the console. If I don't do (cin >> n) before getline then the control stops on getline and takes the string as input.What is the best way to read from console multiple strings of unknown length in combination with the integers?
The error is unclear but suggests Its received a bad pointer from another heap. It references dbgheap.c line 1322 and assertion failure
I have two string vector functions the first is called from the main function, the second is called from the first.
Their purpose is to receive a string of text and numbers in a semi-specific format, which the main body of the code reads from a text file, and delaminates the data as to return the first variable in the string as the variable name and the second as the variable value. Along the way it filters out a lot of the unwanted whitespace and punctuation.
E.g "{ VariableNameA 123 }" would be returned as "VariableNameA" And "123"
The code works perfectly for most of the lines in the text file but fails on one particular line where the first variable is 25 characters long. Basically it works for anything 22 characters or less. There are never more than 4 elements in the vector and each element is never intended to be longer than 25 characters.
It fails trying to return from the second split function to the first split function.
Is there a limit to the size of each vector element? I'm struggling to find a way round this without having to rewrite the whole thing.
vector<string> split(const string &s, char delim) {
vector<string> elems;
split(s, delim, elems);
return elems;

I need to know if it is possible to show the maximum length that is defined a string. I explained it with a example
void charLong(char *a){
cout <<"a defined max long = "<<a-><FUNCTION>;
} int main() {
char str[40];
charLong(&str);
return 0;
}
That the result was : a defined max long = 40.
I know that exist strlen() but this show only the length that is used, I need the definition length. is it possible?
I have a question about finding the length of first sentence in an input string.
For example, let the input string be: dream in code. community learning
The length of first sentence is 13 (blanks are included). My question is how to create conditions for multiple punctuation signs (!,?)? If while loop goes like:
while((str[i]!='.')||(str[i]!='!')||(str[i]!='?'))
it gives me an error for infinite loop.
Code:
#include<stdio.h>
int main() {
char str[100];int i=0,br=0;
printf("enter a string:");

Here's my code so far:

std::cout << "Game to remove from list: ";
std::cin.ignore();
getline(std::cin, gameTitle);
for (iter = gameList.begin(); iter != gameList.end(); ++iter) {

It deletes the text from the string but not the index it self.
It deletes the text but when I print the list of game titles it has it there blank. I want it to completely remove the object from the vector from where it was deleted

STRING s1 = “FOOBAR”
Here STRING is a user defined class. how to assign a constant char array "FOOBAR" to string object? Copy constructor need to be same class type as parameter. and overloading assignment operator also need to be same class type. I think 'friend' can let pass another type of object rather than STRING to do operation on overloaded '=' operator. How could it be done if it is possible at all?
I have two puzzling issues I am dealing with.
Issue 1: I am using a stringstream object in a block of my program that needs to be visited repeatedly depending on a user's selection from a menu. I want the contents of this stringstream object to be cleared any time control gets to this part of the program. I have tried the clear and flush functions to no avail.
Issue 2: I am reading data from a source text file that would be regularly changed during the course of program run. After the program run is over, I am supposed to save the results(which is basically the source text file AND all updates) in a destination file. This destination file would then serve as the source file when next the program is run. In other words, I want a scenario where my results overwrite the original contents of the source file; implying that my source and destination files are now one, pretty much. How can I do this?
Write a function named replaceSubstring. The function should accept three C-string or string object arguments.
Let's call them string1, string2, and string3. It should search string1 for all occurrences of string2. When it finds an occurrence of string2, it should replace it with string3.
For example, suppose the three arguments have the following values:
string1: "the dog jumped over the fence"
string2: "the"
string3: "that"
With these three arguments, the function would return a string object with the value "that dog jumped over that fence." Demonstrate the function in a complete program.
