C++ :: Counting Number Of Occurrences Of A Word In A Text File
Jul 27, 2014
I have to write a function that accepts a word (in my case the word is "the") and file pointer, and counts the number of times the given word appears (case insensitive) within the file associated with the pointer. This means the two words "the" and "THE" should both be counted.
Here is my code:
int WordCount :: countWords(string wrd)
{
string temp;
int counter;
while (!file->eof())
{
*file >> temp;
if (temp == wrd)
[Code]...
Unfortunately this does not work,

I've been struggling with this for a while, I have to write a function that accepts a word (in my case the word is "the") and file pointer, and counts the number of times the given word appears (case insensitive) within the file associated with the pointer. This means the two words "the" and "THE" should both be counted.
Here is my code:
int WordCount :: countWords(string wrd) {
int counter=0;
string temp = "";
while (getline(*file,temp)) {
for (int i = 0; i < temp.length();i++) {
[Code] ....
This is what I have come up with, but I get an incorrect value. It was suggested to us to consider using the strcpy() or strstr() functions, but I don't know how to use them.

The user will first enter the file name to be processed. The program can do the following 5 tasks:
1. Count the number of words
2. Count the number of alphabets (without punctuation marks)
3. Count number of sentences.
4. Count the frequency of each vowel.
5. Count frequency of the following three words individually: FAST, computer and engineering
There should be a proper menu through which the user can select the desired task. The program should continue until the user asks to terminate it.
Here is what i have done so far:
#include <iostream>
#include <cstring>
#include <fstream>
#include <cstdlib>
using namespace std;
int main(void)
{
int opt=0; //option number
ifstream fin;
string filename;
[Code]...
There are a few problems.
1- When I enter option 'q', an infinite loop starts.
2- The first time, the program gives the correct value. After that, each time it gives answer ZERO.
3- The last part is not working. I experimented something which failed. I don't know how to do the last part.

I am supposed to read(scan) data from a folder with multiple(21578) text files, and file names are numbered from 1 to 21578,and read each word that occurs in a text file, and count the number of times it occurs in the entire folder,i.e; in all the files how do i go about it? I've tried this so far..but it isn't working..
#include <iostream>
#include <map>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
void incrementString(map<string, int> &theMap, string &theString) {
if(theMap.count(theString)) {

I'm creating a program to read information about class schedules at my school, reformat the information, and allow the user to search for specific semesters. There are eight fields of information. I'm reading the info from a text file using eight parallel arrays, but I'm having trouble declaring the arrays. I can run this code in one compiler (Dev-C++) with no problems, but I get errors when trying to compile it using Visual Studio stating that arrays must be declared with a constant value. I have a loop to run through the text file, with a counter to increment with each subsequent line, then I create a constant int equal to the counter, and declare the arrays of size equal to the constant int. Here's the section of code in question:
// Counting the number of lines in the text file
inFileForLines.open("CIS225HW1DA.txt");
string countLine;
int numberOfLines = 0;
//Discarding the first line of the text file containing only column headings
getline(inFileForLines, countLine);

I have the following code that does not work. It prints out 1 when it should print out 5 and 3 respectively. I know that the code is not the pretties due to ( *arr == value) but i am just learning C++.
Spoiler
template <typename T>
int countOccurrencesRecursively(T* arr, int size, T value){
//the base case is when the the array is empty
if(size == 0) return 0;
else return *arr == value + countOccurrencesRecursively(++arr, --size, value);

I need to read from a text file and search for a string that appears in the file and then count how many times it appears. My count just prints zero though. Do you see what I did wrong in my code for this to happen?
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>

I have recently hit a stump with C++ and have been getting pretty frustrated with this assignment. I just can't seem to find out how to start the assignment. Basically for the first part of the assignment, I need to find the number of characters in this .txt file my teacher provided for me. The only exception is that I can only count the actual letters themselves, not spaces or punctuation. How would I go about doing this? I have read about functions like isalpha but can't figure out on how to fit them into code to do the first part of this assignment.

it looks like a popular method for determining the total lines in a file is to read the entire file character by character in search of ' '. I have a file with 5 lines, but for some reason this code isn't finding any instances of ' '. Is this possible? Is there a better way to get the number of lines in a file?
The file looks like this:
Code:
NAME: John
FRIEND 1: Steve
FRIEND 2: Andrea
FRIEND 3: Ken
OCCUPATION: Programmer
Code:
FILE *f = fopen(currentFile, "r");
if (f == NULL) perror ("Error opening file.
");
int ch, lines = 0;
while(!feof(f)){

I was trying to make a function that would return how many lines are in a certain file. I was looking at [URL] which talks about how to count how many characters are in a text file. I just want the number of lines with in a file.

I'm trying to copy a file into another file and copy the number of characters copied but my while loop doesn't even enter into a loop indicating the file is already at the EOF file character. I've confirmed this by placing the printf() statement inside the while loop, which doesn't print anything and by keeping it out of the while loop and changing the chars_copied to something like 9, it prints 9 for number of chars_copied. I don't understand why the file is already at the EOF character, I've tried this with a few more files, it's the same result.
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void){
FILE *input_file, *output_file;
int c, chars_copied=0;
if((input_file=fopen("C:workmarks.txt", "r"))==NULL)
perror("input file open failed");

So I'm trying to count the number of lines in a text file that is inputted by the user. Also the code doesn't sum up the last number of the text file (exmp it calculates and print only 14 from 15 numbers). I'm a beginner in c++ programing.

I have a C++ program that performs calculations on numbers in a text file. However, suppose we have additional words in the text file such as "Title". In this instance, the program will not calculate the numbers in the file because of the text.
How do we remove text from a file using the C++ program? e.g. if I wanted to specify the program to remove any instances of the word "Title", how would I do it?

I've written a function that has to receive a word as parameter, and then has to find the amount of times that word (uppercase & lowercase) occurs in a text file:
For example, if the word "the" is sent as a parameter, the total amount of times the words "the" and "THE" occurs in the text file, has to be calculated.
However, my function is not displaying the correct amount, what is wrong with my function:
int WordCount :: countWords(string wrd)
{
int counter=0;
string temp = "";

I can figure out how to search for a word, but no clue how to get it to then print out the row. This is all I can figure out to do.
ifstream FileSearch;
FileSearch.open("employee");
if(FileSearch.is_open())
{string letters;// search word would be store here

I have text (string) and I want to find a given word (it's ok!) and then insert another given word after the first word. The original string is beeing copied into a new string. But something is going wrong!!! Where is my mistake?
(I have some patches...)
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
//insert "new_word" after each occurence of "word"
int main(){
char A[100]="In the sentence words the and the.";

Ok here I have a program that reads a word from a text file randomly and matches it with the definition. The user has to guess what the word is according to the definition.
I'm having trouble with my for loop, I'm not getting any errors. But I just know something is off.
Here's my code:
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <ctime>
using namespace std;
int main(){
int number;
int count = 0;
int numOfGuess = 0;
[Code] ...
This is words.txt:
apple#the usually round, red or yellow, edible fruit of a small tree
boat#a vessel for transport by water
horse#a solid-hoofed plant-eating domesticated mammal with a flowing mane and tail, used for riding
television#a system for transmitting visual images and sound that are reproduced on screens
soup#a liquid dish, typically made by boiling meat, fish, or vegetables, etc.
bottle#a container, typically made of glass or plastic and with a narrow neck
barber#a person who cuts hair
toast#sliced bread browned on both sides by exposure to radiant heat
radar#a system for detecting the presence, direction, distance, and speed of aircraft, ships, and other objects
red#of a color at the end of the spectrum next to orange and opposite violet

This could be non contiguous. As an example
string1: "Hello"
string2: "Heelblloo"
occurrences of string 1 in string2 is 2*3c2*2=12
among 2 e's in string 2, we can select only one and thus 2 possible ways.similarly for l and o.
