C++ :: Comparing Words With Contents Of Text File

May 23, 2013

I want the user to enter the word and I want to check if it exists in a text file or not. I tried

int flag=0;
char word[50], input[50];
cout<<"Enter word to search for";
gets(input);

[Code] ....

But it does not seem to be working. Should I make changes to it or is there another way?

C++ :: Transfer Contents From Text File Into A String

Apr 9, 2014

I'm making a program in which it will read an input from a text file and then count the numbers of spaces , characters , words . Here is what i think it would work : First i will transfer the contents from the input.txt into a string , after that i will create 3 strings which contain each of these : spaces , characters , words . Then comparing each of the contents of the intput.txt_string to the other 3 strings .

#include<iostream>
#include<fstream>
#include<string.h>
using namespace std;

[code]....

and of course it doesnt seem to work...

C++ :: How To Load Contents Of Text File Into Array

May 12, 2013

So I am working on a FUSE filesystem and I currently have the need to load the contents of a text file into an array.

My array initialization looks like: char array[max_entries][PATH_MAX] = {NULL}

The reason I want to pass it by reference is that I want my function to return two values essentially. One a specific char* and the other an array like I initialized. My function proto type looks like:

char* load_meta(char* list[max_entries][PATH_MAX], char* path, int mode);

How I'm trying to call the function:

someChar = load_meta(&array, path_name, 1);

Within the function I try to edit the array by deferenceing it once, like this:

strcpy(*list[i], file_entry); // This seg faults

C++ :: Store Contents Of Text File Into Char Array?

Apr 22, 2014

I am trying to store the contents of a text file into a char array. However the function i am using ifstream member function get(); seems to stop working when fed with certain characters. Is there another solution besides the get() function that will accept all types of characters from files?

char text[1000];
for (int i = 0; i <= textlen; ++i)
{
text[i] = text_in.get();
}

C++ :: Comparing Words From Two Different Files Using Fstream

Feb 2, 2013

I'm trying to input a html file and copy everything from that file to a new html file with some changes. I need to read the html file word by word and compare them to a file with some keywords. If a keyword matches a word in the html file then it will add italic tags around that word in the output html file. As it is now it doesn't output anything.

Logically I want to read a word from the html file and then compare it to every keyword and output the result.

fileIn = original html file
keyword = keywords file
outFile = html file writing to
std::string str;
std:: string word;

C/C++ :: Comparing Two String Arrays For Unique Words?

Oct 2, 2014

I'm looking to take in an array of less than 50 strings, and I want to find all of the unique words in that array (omitting the words that are repeated) and then outputting the unique words and unique word count. My code compiles, but my unique array is couting all of the words contained in the original array regardless of uniqueness.

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
using namespace std;
int main() {
cout << "Please type in some words." << endl;
cout << "Type END and return when you are finished." << endl;

[code].....

This is what I get back.

You typed the following 14 words: red, green, blue, red, red, blue, green, blue, orange, red, reg, apple, banana, banana, END,

You typed the following 0 unique words: red, green, blue, red, red, blue, green, blue, orange, red, reg, apple, banana, banana, END

I'm not worried about the unique count yet, I just want to get the unique array containing the correct strings.

C/C++ :: Compare Words From Text File With Array?

Apr 16, 2014

I need to compare the words from a text file with words from an array (which i got from another file) and count the instances of those words. I thought about making another array but that doesn't make sense since the text file may have a lot of words in it.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <ctype.h>
int main() {
FILE *myFile;
char words[100][40], test;

[code]...

the test variable in the last for loop is wrong i know i was just trying something.

C :: Read Text From A File And Show What Words Occur How Many Times

Apr 21, 2013

I'm trying to make program that will read text from a file and show what words occur how many times. I'm trying to make it so that if a new string comes, it saves it into wlist[], and counts 1 to wcount[]. If the same word is there, it will just add 1 to wcount[]. The program will end when it gets to the end of a file.

I don't know the reason, but I can't get strcmp and strcpy to work. I had to put a pointer in curword, just to make it compile.

Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#define LIST_MAX 100
#define WORD_MAX 20
int main(){

C++ :: Reading Two Words Into Single Char Array From Text File

Sep 15, 2014

I am trying to read in player names (ex: first last) from a text file into the people[].name data struct. I can successfully read in my card file, but I cannot get this to work. I get a seg fault. I believe this is because nothing is actually being read in for my while loops. I can't use std::strings so these must be c-style strings aka char arrays.

// deck of cards
// below are initializations
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <ctime>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string>

using namespace std;
//globals
const int maxCards = 52;

Visual C++ :: File Stream Change Its Address During Writing Text Contents To The Stream

Apr 29, 2013

I wrote a program to write text contents to file stream through fputs, the file stream address was changed in the middle of writing text content to the stream (11% text content have been put into the file stream), that cause the file stream pointer can be evaluated problem and raise exception on stream validation code in fputs library function, my question is what things could go wrong to make file stream pointer changed its address to something else or a NULL pointer if the file stream have not been flushed and closed.

This what I'm trying to do:

Type two or more lines of text into a file. Write a program to open the file, reading each word into a vector<string> object. Iterate over the vector, displaying it to cout. That done, sort the words using the sort() generic algorithm

But I'm stuck unfortunately.

#include<vector>
#include<cstdio>
using namespace std;
int main() {
ifstream infile("about.txt");

C :: Printing Contents Of A File - Prints One Extra Character Not Present In The File

Feb 12, 2013

I'm writing a program that stores records into a file and then these records can be printed out. A last name, first name, and score is stored to be exactly 36 characters long (using leading spaces to pad) making it easier to retrieve specific records. For example, three records stored in the file would like like this: (the underscores are simply to illustrate the distance, they are not in the file itself)

_______lastname_______firstname__90__________lname __________fname_100___________last___________first __60

When printed out, the names are formatted as follows:

lastname, firstname: 90
lname, fname: 100
last, first: 60

However, when I print them out this is what I get:

lastname, firstname: 90
lname, fname: 100$
last, first: 60H

For some reason, for any record after the first, an extra character is added to the end. These characters are not in the file, so I was thinking that the array for some reason wasn't being filled completely, (the array is initialized to size 36 and 36 characters are read from the file using fread) so it was printing out a random character assigned to the 36th array position. Except the character never changes, (always a $ for record 2, H for record 3, l for record 4 if i remember) and I've tried reducing the array size or the number of character read and it's the string that gets altered, the random character always remains. I figure the problem must be in the print_records function (appending seems to work no problem). Anyway here is my print records and appending records code.

Code: /*
- Prints a single record stored in the file pointed to by ifp.
*/
void print_record(FILE *ifp, int record) {
