C/C++ :: Read Bytes From A Data File
Dec 5, 2014
I am a member of a group still developing the Microprose European Air War game. We have the source code and permission to do this. As the code dates back to 1998 I use Visual Studio 2006.
I have written many programs in Visual basic, and have the following one to read the airbase value in the "targets.dat" file. The file has a four byte header containing the number of tatgets, and a 32 byte data block containing the data for each target.
Private Sub Command1_Click()
List1.Clear
Dim nt As Long
Dim a4() As Long
Open App.Path & " argets.dat" For Binary Access Read As 1
'read and display the number of targets
[Code] ....
Despite many attempts I cannot write the C equivalent of this code into the eaw.exe source. All I really need to know is how to open the 'targets.dat' file and how to get the value of a byte (or integer, or long) at a given position as in the "Get #1, k, a4(n)" line.

I want to read a single byte from a wifstream. With an ifstream I would use read(), but given that the char type for an wifstream is wchar_t (2 bytes), this is also being used by read(), so how can I read a single byte from such a stream?

I wanna read a txt file like this
1.00518 2.01903 3.01139 4.01343 5.02751 5.99913 7.00011 7.99851 .....
and fill the array P[i][j] with the data.
I try to use
if (myfile.is_open()) {
//for (int i = 0; i < 1; i++)
//{
getline (myfile,DMArray[0]);
cout << DMArray[i] << endl;
//}
myfile.close();
}
But this read the data into a string. How should i do with this string. Besides I know the dimension of the data I am reading.

Code:
int i12 = 1001;
cout << i12 << " " << &i12 << endl;
gives the result: 0x7fff0d065098
It's 6 bytes, but I'd expect the address to be 8 bytes on my 64 bit machine. I am using Ubuntu 12.04, GNU compiler.
So, why the address is 6 bytes and not 8 bytes?

i write this program and every things work correct except when i want to add data of file to the link list .when i add the data to the link list by add_to_linked_list() every things work correct but when i use read_linked_list_from_file() it doesn't work
Code:
#include <stdio.h>

I am currently working on a problem where I read a file into a 2D array, and display data. If you saw my code earlier, this is the same problem, but I am now further along.
The file (90 characters) looks like this:
S
R
R
S
R
R
R
R
S
S
....
The "R" resembles rainy days, the "S" resembles sunny days, and the "C" resembles cloudy days. There are 90 characters in the file. The first 30 are for the month of June, the next 30 are for the month of July, and the last 30 are for the month of August. The 31st day of the months are NOT included.
I read the data into a 3 x 30 array, where the row indicates the month (0 = June, 1 = July, 2 = August) and the column indicates the number of days in each month.
Now I need to create a function that creates a report and displays, for each month AND for the whole 3 month period:
1) The number of rainy days
2) The number of cloudy days
3) The number of sunny days
4) Which of the 3 months had the largest number of rainy days
Here is my code so far:
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
const int MONTHS = 3;//Number of months
[Code] .....
There are no compiling errors, but I am not getting the data I want. My rCount and cCount variables end up being 0, and my sCount variable is 90.

Assume you want to read from a file and place the data from the file into an array. The array can hold 10 integers. The file may contain any number of integers with 1 integer per line. Fill in the missing loop test condition so that we will read from the file until either end of file occurs or the array is full. Note we are using cin to read from the file since input redirection is being used.
cin >> temp;
arrayIndex = 0;
while ( _____________________________________) {
array[arrayIndex] = temp;
arrayIndex++;
cin >> temp;
}

For my intro to c programming class, our homework requires us to read a data file and emit various bits of information. the data file looks like this
#Domain: the URL
#Alexa: some kind ranking, small numbers are better
#Rank: another sort of ranking, big numbers are better
#Domain Alexa Rank Site Name
#------------ ----- ------- ---------
amazon.com 13 1177136 Amazon.com
google.com 1 4533883 Google
youtube.com 3 3637788 YouTube
[Code] ....
I've started and am able to get the correct number of lines, and the alexa number, but I keep getting some errors and am just unsure where to correct my code. This is what it looks like;
Code:
// Lexi Anderson
//CS 156
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
[Code] .....
and once compiled, I get errors.

I am having trouble in reading data from my text file and print it out exactly like how it looks like in the text file. The problem im having is it will not read the last y Coordinates of the point. it keep reading the second last point for y coordinates which is wrong.
my text file is
0.0 0.0
0.0 1.0
1.0 0.0(but it read until here)
0.0 0.0(suppose to read the last point which is here)
For your information, this is my 1st year degree assignment in C programming. It is to create a program which can read text file (manually create) and print it out in a program and calculate the area for the polygon using ADT function ( .c and .h files)
*This is the code for my read file function*
Basically this accepts a Polygon and a file pointer as parameters. It reads the polygon point data from the file, pass the read data to plg_new() to create a new Polygon and returns the new Polygon created.
Code:
polygon *plg_read(polygon *New_polygon, FILE *Coord) {
int i;
int numberofvertices=0;
int count=0;
char filename[50];
double xCoor[50], yCoor[50];
[Code]....
This is the second function my polygon new code. This ADT function basically creates a new Polygon with malloc(), initialize all ADT data members with its parameter values and returns the Polygon.
Code:
polygon *plg_new(double *xCoordinates, double *yCoordinates, int numberOfVertices) {
int x;
polygon *New_poly = (polygon *)malloc(sizeof (polygon));
if(New_poly->xCoordinates == NULL || New_poly->yCoordinates == NULL) {
free(New_poly);
[Code]....
This is the rest of the code if you need to refer to other codings.
Code:
/**
*@file polygon.c
*@brief Functions for polygon / Struct has polygon numberOfVertices, polygon *xCoordinates and polygon *yCoordinates
*@author: Tan Xian Yao
*@id: 4323440
*@date: 22/04/2014

I am new to C++ and I am having an issue reading in a 2 Dimensional array from a data file. I am very close to reading it in perfectly except for one issue, the loop is ignoring the first value from the data file.
This is the code I have so far:
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <cctype>
#include <algorithm>
#include <functional>
#include <conio.h>
#include <iomanip>
#include <string>
#include <fstream>
[Code]...
This is the values from the data file:
300 450 500 210
510 600 750 400
627 100 420 430
530 621 730 530
200 050 058 200
100 082 920 290
When the Program shows my array it comes up as:
450 500 210 510
600 750 400 627
100 420 430 530
621 730 530 200
050 058 200 100
082 920 290 0
Every array location is moved up one, like the program just completely ignored the 300 at the beginning.

I am suppose to make a program that reads in data from a text file (integers only) and sorts them as it inserts them into an array of size 10. I did this using an insertion sort, which worked great. But now I am being told that I need the function has to read ALL of the numbers in the text file, not just the first 10, and I am not allowed to store them THEN sort, it has to be sorted as being stored.
This is what I have for sorting first 10
void sortArray(int iArray[])
{
string fileName = "";
fstream inFile;
int tmp = 0;

I've got some code in C++ that does some basic analysis on price data and I run it from the cmd prompt. One of the functions I had built to read in the data is as follows:
void ReadPricesFromFile(constchar*filename,std::vector<PriceInfo>&prices)
{std::ifstreaminput(filename);
input>>prices;}
How would one merge this type of code into a Qt GUI? Ideally, I'd like to use something like QFileDialog to open up a folder with my data files, select a file, and then read the file that the user selects. Would the main.cpp look something like this?
int main (int argc, char *argv []) {
QApplication prog (argc, argv);
QPushButton *load_button = new QPushbutton ("Load File");
QObject:: connect (load_button, SIGNAL (clicked()), &prog, SLOT ( (ReadPricesfromFile function?);
load_button-> show ();
return prog.exec ();}

I am trying to read data from more than one file at once. The files are different types e.g. one is a text file one is an xml file like so, StudentInformation.txt, CollegeInformation.xml. The files are all stored in one place, in this case on the D drive of a local computer. I am trying to locate any files in the D drive with a file extension of .txt or of .xml (there may be more than two of these files in the future, so I'm trying to allow for that). Then I want to open all of these files, extract the information and output all the information in one display window. I want all the information from these two or more files to be displayed together in the display window.
Here is the code so far. It is throwing up errors.
//Load from txt files
private void btnLoad_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
IEnumerable<string> fileContents = Directory.EnumerateFiles("D:\", "*.*", SearchOption.TopDirectoryOnly)
.Select(x => new FileInfo(x))
.Where(x => x.Extension == ".xml" || x.Extension == ".txt")
.Select(file => ParseFile(file));}
[Code] ....
The error it throws up is:
Error 1 'BookList.Mainwindow.ParseFile(System.IO.FileInfo)': not all code paths return a value

I wrote a code to read a specific amount of data from file until terminating set is reached. however the code does what its supposed to correctly until it reaches the 5th loop it justs stops responding. I've checked the reading file and all elements are correct in the file.
Code:
int main(void){
FILE *file1;
FILE *file2;
FILE *file3;
struct t test1;
struct t test2;

I am in an "intro" C++ course and am having trouble with a section of my current project.
We are required to open a text file, read the data from that file, and print it back.
However, we are supposed to let the user input the name of the file that is to be opened. This is the code I have so far. It is not opening anything.
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
const int NUM_QUESTIONS = 30;
typedef char CharArray[NUM_QUESTIONS];
string fileName;

How would i write a functor for this code. The code is written to read data from a file and store in a multimap.
The data has numbered lines. E.g.:
1 This is a string
2 This is a string too
So the aim is to store each word in the line with the number and then to enter a word to search for the line numbers it appears on. I do not know how to go about and write a functor
#include<iostream>
#include<sstream>
#include<fstream>
#include<cstdlib>
#include<map>
using namespace std;
int main() {
multimap<int, string>myMap;
[Code] ....
