C++ :: Dictionary - Display Definition Of Searched Word From Text File
Oct 20, 2014
I am now making a Dictionary using C++. My goal is to search the word and display the definition of the searched word from the text file. I have a code but it is not working. How can I search a word and display the definition of the word from a text file?
void searchFile(string word) {
ifstream ifile;
ofile.open("dictionary.txt", ios::in);
string line;
string search;
[Code] ....

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

Basically I have a text file called words. I'm supposed to extract a word randomly form the file and have the user guess the word. If they guess the word correctly in x number of tries they will receive the definition.
I'm having trouble receiving that random word and I'm getting the definitions from the file.
Here's my code:
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>
using namespace std;
[Code] ....
This is what is in the words.txt file
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

i've been trying to figure out to search for a word in a text file and then display everything in the same row as the word found int ie this is whats in the file
john doe 3/21/1920 tech support review team 45,000
so user wants to find tech..and everything associated with it.
so program search for tech, when it does it then display the whole row.
john doe 3/21/1920 tech support review team 45,000
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
string row; ??stores entire row as string
while(1)

Over the last few days, I've been trying to implement a spell checker in c++ that checks if the inputted word is in the dictionary file on my computer. However, as I'm nearing completion of the project, I keep running into more and more errors, some of which I do not understand. My program is complete, albeit, with some minor bad practices (I hard coded a few things just to get the program up and running.For some reason, everything works well until I output spelling suggestions. I type in "mses" (attempting to spell mess) and it returns some strange characters. It does definitely recognize that there are two permutations that match words in the dictionary (however they are both mess due to the algorithm implemented), and I don't understand why? I will work on removing the duplicates after.
// Spell Checker.cpp : Defines the entry point for the console application.//
#include "stdafx.h"
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <fstream>
#include <iostream>

I am trying to write a program that ask the user to enter a sentence and then a word to be searched for in the sentence. The program must then search for the word in the sentence in a loop and continue to output each place the word is found. For example if the sentence is : I like pickles, pickles, pickles
and you searched for pickles it would return pickles found at 7, pickles found at 16, pickles found at 25.
I am having trouble writing the equation to make the find keep searching after each occurrence of the word being searched. Here is the code I have so far
HTML Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main() {
string paragraph;

So I'm rewriting an old project of mine, and I'm trying to determine if there's truly any better way to map the data taken from a text file "dictionary" into the correct class fields for further processing. For example:
FNAME=MY_FIRST_NAME
ADDR=123 SOMEWHERE LN, NOWHERESVILLE, TX 01234
LNAME=MY_LAST_NAME
TOTCALLS=47
In each of these, I'd need the "value" (MY_FIRST_NAME, MY_LAST_NAME, etc) from the "keys" (FNAME, LNAME, etc) to be mapped to the proper class fields. Say, for example, I had this:
Class DataProcessing {
public string Address;
public string FirstName;
public string LastName;
public int TotalCalls;
...
}
I would need DataProcessing.Address to be set to the value in the ADDR key/value pair. The same would be true for each other field. The problem is that based on the text file's source (which isn't under my control, and won't be changed anytime soon), the key/value pairs are not always in the same place...so a second file could have the data as such:
TOTCALLS=47
ADDR=123 SOMEWHERE LN, NOWHERESVILLE, TX 01234
LNAME=DARKPOETCC'S LAST NAME
FNAME=DARKPOETCC'S FIRST NAME
Any smarter way to do this than looping through each line that was read in from the file, and determining where it belongs, such as (pseudo code follows):
IF FieldName == "TOTCALLS" THEN
//Assign to TotalCalls field
ELSEIF FieldName == "ADDR" THEN
//Assign to Address field
ELSEIF FieldName == (You get the picture...)
//Do thing N_Field

I am creating a student management system (using classes) for my assignment and am stuck with designing UI. I made the classes but am not sure what the best control is to display items from a Dictionary<> object. Right now I am using the ListView because of the columns in details view...just want to know if there is a better, simpler control I could use if i want to display data (without using sql)...or is the good old "next" and "previous" option the simplest?

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 = "";

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'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.

I'm supposed to read a text file and display it in the output. I have it down except my formatting. I just cannot get it to just skip one line rather than multiple. I know why though because my char has a max of 11 and if I put a character lets say mango, it is going to fill in the rest with white spaces. It's supposed to display like this:
Mango
Strawberry
Grapes
But instead I get something like this
Mango
Melon
Grapes
I am using isspace but it's not working.

Anyway, I am working on a project and have compiled a dictionary text file of english language words. I want to use this dictionary for an autocomplete feature that I would like to add to the program.
I am having trouble finding anything about either
1) an autocomplete library I can #include into my code.
2) how to write my own.
I need it to be in either C or c#. If i can get the algorithm in C then I can just convert it to c#
