C++ :: File Reading And Code Modularity Using Ifstreams
Aug 24, 2013
How to compact my code. I have a file that my program will read several times. Each time a different test will check it for something specific. I can't check it all at once because I let the user specify what to check. I'm currently using an ifstream with a while loop to read until the end of file.
Here are three approaches :
1. I keep a static ifstream in a function and call it each time I want a new line to read. The function will "remember" what line is at and returns a new line each time (I suspect this can work but I'm not 100% sure). Each function can then be separated and call readline to get a new line back.
2. I make one giant while loop and make case statements that call the correct case and pass the string all the way down to the test function that is being run.
3. Write everything to some sort of array buffer. The file isn't terribly big about 1000 lines.
What should I do? Is the first approach even worth the effort to cut down a few lines of code? The second case doesn't seem to be much better as I cannot reuse anything.

Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int encrypt_data(FILE *);
[Code] ....
I am trying encrypt the file "encrypt" when I enter it I get "Error in reading file"
I think its a problem with the fgets() and scanf()...I tried both fgets out and then scanf but I get the same error.
I look in the directory and see that when I enter a file to be encrypted a blank file with a "?" at the end is created in the directory. so I try to encrypt "encrypt" it shows error then creates "encrypt?"
I then tested it by entering a random file name that does not exist
EXAMPLE
Please enter file to be encrypted: fakefilename
Error in reading file.
I look in the directory the non existent file now is listed "fakefilename"

I have a script that checks and compares two lists from an offline dictionary. Dictionary.txt which has a lot of words in it. input.txt will compare to dictionary.txt and print out anything that matches in CMD.
However, instead of using an offline dictionary is there anyway to make a code check an online dictionary? If so, would this process be slow or fast?

I'm doing a practice problem where I need to read pseudo code and understand what it does.
For this code, I believe it will move the robot forward while i<650, so it moves it forward for 650 steps in total. Then it sets the motors to 0 when it's finished.
Code:
while(i<650)
{ rotateCW(2);
rotateCCW(1);
Delay1KTCYx(50);
i++;
LATD=0x00; //Set all Port D to 0
}
This code I'm having the most trouble with. So while(1) the pot(potentiometer) read's the ADC. Then it scales the adc, not 100% sure what the +20 and *.22 mean, I think it has to do with binary conversions?
Now it sets pin 1 of port 1 to 0, delays based on pot above, and sets it back to 1, and delays again. I assume something to do with controlling motor speed based on the potentiometer.
Code:
void main(void){TRISD = 0x00; // Setting port D to outputs
LATDbits.LATD0 = 1; // Setting bit 0 of port D to 1
while(1) {
pot = readADC();
pot = pot * 0.2297 + 20;
[Code] ......
My best guess is: The car moves forward 400 steps, stop, turn right for 230 steps, stop. At this point it would begin moving straight, and it would turn left/right as needed to keep the robot in the center of the track.
Code:
void main(void) {
for(i=0;i<400;i++) {
rotateCW(2,motor); //Rotate motor two (one step)
rotateCCW(1,motor); //Rotate motor one (one step)
Delay1KTCYx(50);
[Code].....

I know it sounds strange but I've seen things that have files which contain source code (usually in something in Python or such) and how this is read on run-time?

I have a function in one src file called from code in a different src file.
In ig_cfunc.cpp
Code:
#include "ig_tools.h"
int x2_count = 0.0;
float rel_branch_degree_tmp = 0.0;
string type;
vector<int> is_disp_type;
[Code] ....
I am getting a linker error,
Code:
ig_cfunc.cpp:1609: error: `calc_rel_branch_degree' undeclared (first use this function)
I have deleted all of the objects and recompiled to make sure that everything is in sync. I can't see what the issue is here and I'm not sure what to do next. This code actually worked until I changed the name of the function, so the types are all correct and such. This is the format I use for all external functions ....

Program background: Ticket Sales Details You will sell tickets in advance and at the door. Prices for buying in advance and at the door will be given. Also, the total number of tickets sold in advance will be given. Each guest will have a unique number. If there are n tickets sold in advance, then these guests will be numbered 0 through n-1. As the event starts, requests to buy tickets at the door may be made and these guests will be numbered sequentially, starting at the lowest unassigned number. The maximum number of guests will be 1000. The first line of the file contains the following three values, separated by spaces: Cost of the presales tickets (in dollars), Cost of the tickets at the door (in dollars), and the number of presale tickets. The first two values will be positive real numbers to two decimal places and the last will be a positive integer.
The second line of the file will contain one positive integer representing the number of auction items followed by a positive real value to two decimal places (at most) representing the minimum bid increment, in dollars. The first value is guaranteed to be 1000 or less and the second will be in between 1 and 50, inclusive.
The third line of the file will contain all the prices of the auction items, in dollars, separated by spaces, in order. Thus, the first price is the price of item 0, the next price is the price of item 1, and so on. These values will be real numbers represented to up to 2 decimal places.
The fourth line of the file will contain the three following positive integers pertaining to the raffle: the number of raffle tickets available, the cost of a raffle ticket in dollars, and the number of raffle prizes. (It's strange to have raffle tickets that don't cost a whole number of dollars.)
The fifth line of the file will contain each of the values of the raffle items, in dollars, separated by spaces, in order. Thus, the first price is the price if item 0, the next price is the price of item 1, and so on. These values will be real numbers with upto 2 decimal places.
The sixth line of the file will contain ten positive integers representing the number of each of the drinks 0 through 9, in order, that are in stock.
The seventh line of the file will contain ten positive real numbers with upto 2 decimal places representing the price of each of the drinks 0 through 9, in order.
The eighth line of the file will contain a single positive integer, numEvents, representing the number of events that occur at the charity ball. These events are split into two groups: actions by guests at the ball and awards given (raffle, auction, person, totalrevenue). All of the actions precede all of the awards. You will produce exactly one line of output for each event described. Here are the formats of each event that could occur:
If a patron buys a ticket at the door, a command will be on a line by itself:
BUY TICKET k
where k is a positive integer indicating the number of tickets bought at the door. These guests will be numbered as previously mentioned. You are guaranteed that the total number of tickets bought, including presales, will not exceed 1000. This is what I have so far and I cannot figure out why it wont calculate the total revenue. I am not completely sure if it is even accessing the if statement in main.
Code:
#include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#define N 1000

Here is program I have written which reads the destination, then finds it from a separate file, and reserves the information on a different file. But the reserved file has hex code information, how can I output my result to the file in normal alphabet/number/symbol characters? I've tried fputs,fprintf, and fwrite , and all give me the same result. The array c, is the one to be written to file.
void main {
FILE *afile = fopen("flightrecord.txt","r");
int i=0,j=0,k=0,z=0,y=0,sum=0,seat=0,g=0;
char destination[10],a[1000],c[1000],b[1000],name[100],last_name[100],c_number[15],plane[]={'P','6','2'};
printf("What is your destination?");
scanf("%s",&destination);

So the premise of my code is to read in a 2d array from a .txt. The array is a game board but the first two lines are what determine the size of the board. After i read it in i want it to find wherever te character "U" is, and then display the array but only showing U and whats around it. Problem is i cant get the array to print the right size and the code for displaying the U is not working either.
ifstream inputFile;
int boardSizeRow;
int boardSizeCol;
inputFile.open("C:UsersMichaelDesktopfileboard2.txt");
inputFile >> boardSizeRow;
inputFile >> boardSizeCol;
inputFile.get();
[Code]...
FILE:

I use a programming language called layout which nobody here has probably ever heard of. It was discontinued over 15 years years ago but it was a very visual & easy to use piece of software - no coding required. In fact once you name all the variables on cards (forms) from then on it's just mouse clicking & occassionaly typing a number if required. It used blackboxes in a flowchart arrangement which were pre-done code for doing just about anything. i.e opening windows, handling numbers & text, files etc. I have written many programs with it including database management, quoting software & currently use it in my business to track my jobs & do invoicing & ordering. It's a pity it wasn't updated & still around today.

Back to the problem. Being a 16 bit program it was written to run on Windows 3.1 but still works on Windows 7!! as long as it is the 32 bit version. I need to write a program that will run on 64 bit W7 without resorting to using a virtual PC solution. I have tried to find something similar that I might be able to use instead but so far nothing comes close to Layout. I just remembered today that layout can produce not only .exe programs but also various versions of C/C++ including visual c++. So I got this idea that if I could get those files I might be able to stick them into a C compiler program to re-make a "modern" exe file.
I could just do a simple sample program & send the source code to them to see if it works on a 64 bit version of Windows 7. how I can do this myself to produce a working exe file.

I'm working on a project for my son. I want to imitate the code for the matrix in CMD using a .bat file.
~note: this is an example of whats going on, not the whole code
:start
@set /a bottomlimit = 0
@set /a upperlimit = 2
@set /a result1 = %bottomlimit% + %random% %% (%upperlimit% - %bottomlimit% + 1)
if %result1% == "2" set /a result1 = " " <- this is the part that is messing up, it doesnt change the 2 to a blank space and keeps echoing as 2
echo %result1%

I am trying to use struct to store variables from a text file and use them in the main program. I have first tried running the program without using struct and declaring the variables within the main program and it runs fine. But after using struct, it gives no compilation error and a segmentation fault as output. Also, if the size of file/variable size is unknown can I declare variables as char string[]??
The code is as below:
Code:
#include<stdio.h>
struct test {
char string1[10000];

get my code to display a table with values from a file. my current code fills up all the sections of the table with the same data. here is what I need: from a file .txt I upload numbers that should show a table like this :
Lake Beach Average E-Coli Level
Recommendation
Ontario Kew Beach 47.12 OPEN Huron Goderich 51.13 CLOSED Simcoe Sibbald Point 0 INSUFFICIENT
my problem is in the last two columns. The ave. E-coli has one value for all which should look like the above table but my code doesn't. Also my recommendation shows the beach # instead of open close or insufficient.the data is:
Lake table
1: Ontario
2: Erie
3: Huron
4: Muskoka
5: Simcoe
Beach table
100: Kew Beach
101: Sunnyside Beach
103: Sandbanks
201: Port Dover
202: Port Burwell
203: Crystal Beach
301: Goderich
302: Sauble Beach
303: Kincardine
401: Muskoka Beach
501: Sibbald Point
the .txt file contains the following data:
1 101 5 66.6 33.3 22.2 98.9 11.1
5 501 2 33.3 44.3
now this is my code:
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
int main(void)
{
FILE *in;
}
[code]......
fix the two last columns so the correct info shows like the table above.

I have been given a task of checking the size of file in Linux machine using C Program. Below is what I came up with
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
void main(int argc, char **argv) {
FILE *fp;
char ch;
int size = 0;
[Code] .....
But Now I have been asked to modify this code in a way that instead of passing the file name as parameter, I have to make a database connection and fetch the value of the filename and location from the database table and check the size . My program has to repeat this process every ten minutes, which means every ten minutes my program has to hit the database, fetch the value and check the size in the file system.
I heard like I Have to create a Fork Call, and have the child instance run every ten minutes.

In my c project in code blocks , I have added another source file (KillerMoves.c) and a header file under the same name (KillerMoves.h). I added the "include guard" to prevent double inclusion. But from some reason, the program suddenly crashes with no warning or specific error. Without the new files,the program runs without any problems. This is the source .c file:
Code:
#include "KillerMoves.h"
void initKillersTable(){
for(int i = 0; i < 15; i++){
killersTable[i] = -1;

In this one program (3 body problem), there are 6 inputs that are scanned (mass, velocity and position of the 2 bodies) and these inputs are computed to arrive at values for x, y and time for the third body. There is a working code that for of extremely small time steps, i.e over 5000 iterations, it produces values for x and y positions of the third body.
I believe this info is sent to an output file since there is a:
FILE* output=fopen("results.out", "w");
I want to play around with the code, insert different values for mass and velocity of the two bodies, but I don't know how to view the results? Im guessing I need to create a results.out file somewhere, but how do I go about doing this?
Do I need to assign memory to the results and then forward that to the output file somehow?
Here is the code : 3body.c
I have a compiler and what not, I'm just unsure how i can get these results out is all.
