C :: How To Scan Text File And Put It Into Array
Mar 4, 2013
This is my text file.
bak kut teh[tab]888.0[tab]989.0
spicy chicken nugget[tab]999.0[tab]978.0
I'm experiencing some problem in trying to scan and put it into an array for the food names (e.g an array for food which consist of bak kut teh and spicy chicken nugget) and another 2 array for the other individual integer into C. However there seem to be some problem with my code.
Is there a difference if I use both tab and space instead of space for all?
Code:
#include<stdio.h>
int main() {
FILE *fp;
char food[100];
char buff[BUFSIZ];
float num;
[Code] ....

I have to create a small data base for a shop. One of the functions i am creating is taking a customers ID and scanning that through a text file and to print out the info about that customer. What i am having trouble with is where do i insert the string compare in my program?
//declaring array for input of customer ID
int customer_ID [20];
printf("Please enter the customer ID:");
gets( customer_ID ); //users input stored in the array

I have written the following code to add data to text files which are required to store 3D scan data (I have to calculate the y-coordinate). My code seems to work except that it stops working when I want to create more than ten text files i.e. the directory I am trying to store them in will not hold any more than ten text files. Code is shown below.
#include <string>
#include <locale>
#include <iomanip>
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <sstream>
using namespace std;

i need to prompt the user of my program to input numbers into an array so that later on these numbers can be added or subtracted with other numbers to form a new array. My problem is I don't know how to make the user input numbers which will then be saved into the array for later use. Here is the parts of my code that relate to the problem:
Code:
float Xv, Yv, Zv, Xu, Yu, Zu ;
float vector1[VECTOR_LENGTH] = {Xv, Yv, Zv} ;
scanf("%1f %1f %1f", &Xv, &Yv, &Zv);
printf("The first element in the array vector1 is: %3f
", vector1[0]);
The point of that printf function is to see if what they have entered is actually registering as what i want it to. This does not work however and the value for this always comes up as 0.
how to scan numbers into an array so that they can be used for later use?

I'm working on a silent auction program that will scan a file and find the highest from each group of bids, then have a running total of money made throughout the auction. I'm pretty sure the rest of my code works, i'm just getting stuck on finding the largest number from the line in the file, saving it, then moving to the next auction.
input file text (first number is num of auctions, after that it's num of bids, then the bids):
5 4 100 500 250 300 1 700 3 300 150 175 2 920 680 8 20 10 15 25 50 30 19 23
Sample Output
Auction 1 sold for $500.00!
Auction 2 sold for $700.00!
Auction 3 sold for $300.00!
Auction 4 sold for $920.00!
Auction 5 sold for $50.00!
The silent auction raised $2470.00 for charity!
Code:
# include <stdio.h>
# include <stdlib.h>
# include <time.h>

I wrote this program to scan a number and a string until EOF then print them to a file named "data.list". the problem is that the program duplicates last line of input in the output file. so for example if the input is :
1 test
2 dream
3 code
then output (in data.list file) would be:
1 test
2 dream
3 code
3 code
I also changed the program code so that it reads from data.list file. even here it duplicates last line!
so when program reads the info above saved in data.list it would be:
1 test
2 dream
3 code
3 code
3 code
here's the code for writing:
#include <stdio.h>
int main( void )
{
int num;
char str[80];
FILE *fPTR;
fPTR = fopen( "data.list", "w" ); // opens a file named "data.list", create if doesn't exist
while(!feof(stdin)) // loop until End-Of-File is pressed. Ctrl-Z in Windows, Ctrl-D in Unix, Linux, Mac OS X
[Code]...
and the one for reading from file:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>
int main( void )
{
int num;
char str[80];
FILE *fPTR;
[Code]...
How do I fix this behavior??

I was given an assignment on outputting the number of upper and lower case vowels from a text file. I was provided guidelines, but I'm still very new to arrays. how:
1. The values would be sorted into the array
2. To correctly output the array.
3. What information seems to be missing.

I have this program for class where we just need to show that we can read, write to a text and binary file. We also need to populate an array from both a text and binary file. When the user first runs the program, the user is told that text/binary file does not work for reading because they do not exist. The user is then asked to start inpuyting integers into the console and at the same time creating and appending to a text/binary file. These values are also stored into an array as they are being inputted. Later in the program the array is run through a for loop and displayed to the screen. Displaying the array to the screen works fine here.
My problem is when the user runs the program for a second time. The text file is opened and an fgets is run to populate an array based on the numbers in the text file. That array is then used again for the user input and file writing section of the program. When the array is displayed at the end of the program the numbers do not make sense. Some appear to be correct bu most do not. When I do the similar actions to the binary file there is no problems. The text file is amended properly everytime the user runs the program. userInputText[MAXSIZE]is a char array (MAXSIZE is defined at 100000) and both textCount and textCounter are initialized to zero when the program is at this point.
Here is what the code where I believe the program resides. I have also attached the source file.
Code:
textPointer = fopen("textFile.txt", "r");
if (textPointer) {
while(fgets(userInputText, sizeof(int), textPointer) != NULL){
sscanf(userInputText, "%d", &textCount);
userInputText[textCounter] = textCount;
textCounter += 1;
}

Reading in a maze into a 2D array. The first two reads will give me the dimension of the maze(ex. m x n maze). So in order to create the 2D array i need the first two reads. Then after it is created it will read the rest of the data which are 1s and 0s. I have to create a program that will solve the maze but i cant test my movement code if i cant read in the data first. the entire program compiles but to test if i read the file i have a function to print it. But it says "There are: 0 rows and 0 columns " so it didn't read anything since rCount and cCount are initialized to 0. and basically the maze has nothing in it.
Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <stack>
#include <cstdlib>
#include "position.h"

In a program, I have a text file (called MyDictionary.txt) which has thousands of words in alphabetical order. I need to make a C program that reads in this text file and then makes an array called char Words[# of total words in the text file][length of longest word].

I am at a loss with an assignment. I am supposed to read from a text file, with an input of something like this: alphaproleone,stroke,42 1 and Store it into an array of structures and then output it with each word/number starting on a new line. My current code prints out only the first part, and the "a" in alphaproleone is the actual number "21".
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include<fstream>
#include<iomanip>
using namespace std;
typedef struct drugtype {
string name, target;
int effectiveness, toxicity;

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

Perhaps my original wording on this was confusing so I will ask a different way.
if I have a text file called
data.txt
and it has the following in it.
12345
67890
12345
67890
how would i read this information into an array called
int data[4][5]
This is in C.

I have a program that saves all information temporarily into memory (into the array), however, I need a permanent save solution. I have the full program working correctly, formatted perfectly, but it's missing the file array to file output.
Essentially, whenever I'm presented with the menu I'll be able to add entries, search by last name, show the entire list, and exit and save. Whenever I select option 4 the program should save to a file "address_book.txt". Whenever I reload the program, it should load from "address_book.txt" and populate the array with the preexisting data.
My question is focused on how and where I should implement the file output. What I have thus far:
#include <iostream>
#include <string.h> //Required to use string compare
#include <fstream> //Eventually used to store array into file
using namespace std;

I have a project which is about linked lists in the order of: a Story is made of Paragraphs which is made of Sentences which is made of Words. We must treat Words specifically as character arrays, not strings. So I need to read in a story from a text file and make Words by finding the first whitespace/punctuation(everything before the whitespace up until the whitespace or punctuation is the Word), all the Words up to the punctuation are a Sentence (Sentence is a linked list of Words), Paragraph is all the Sentences up until an empty line, and a Story is all the Paragraphs. So I know doing this will let me take a line and put it into a character array:
char charArray[25]; //we are allowed to assume a word won't be longer than 25 characters
int i = 0;
ifstream myFile(fileName.c_str());
if(myFile.is_open()){
[Code].....
I suppose I could look at charArray[i] and if it is ws or punctuation then make the Word = charArray[i-1], but is there an if statement I could do that would prevent the ws or punctuation from being read into charArray in the first place? Because a problem I see with the charArray[i-1] method already is that "This is a story." would get put into the array as Thisisastory. and thus I'd be unable to break up at a space.
So to summarize: I want to read in a text file character by character into a char array, which I can set to length 25 due to context of the project. I want to read in each character and at a whitespace or punctuation, I want to take everything already in charArray and feed that into a Word object constructor (the next Word gets linked to the previous Word, and at a punctuation all the Words linked together become one Sentence, and all the Sentences linked before an empty line become a Paragraph, etc). So how can I get charArray to be only characters in a word, then after the word being read-in ends, charArray resets to empty, and then is populated by the next word and so on.

I have to count the letters from a text file into an array so the first spot is the number of A's second spot number of B's and so on then take the array and sort it in decending order how could i do this without loosing track of where the numbers go so if there are more b's than a's they switch but how will i know where each letter has moved in the array after it has been sorted?

I am currently working on a project that requires me to "load the data in the file into array at the beginning of the program."
I have a text file with data, and I need to populate an array with the information. From then on, I am supposed to be able to add, display, and search that array. However, I can't figure out how to add the data from the file into an array. I was trying to find out how to search the text file itself. So it threw me off balance and I've been staring so long at the screen I can't really focus.

I am writing a program for AES Encryption which is all but done as far as that the program encrypts the text and prints the encrypted text in the command prompt:
void main() {
int a;
unsigned char CipherKey[16] = {0x2B, 0x7E, 0x15, 0x16, 0x28, 0xAE, 0xD2, 0xA6, 0xAB, 0xF7, 0x15, 0x88, 0x09, 0xCF, 0x4F, 0x3C};
unsigned char PlainText[16] = {0x32, 0x43, 0xF6, 0xA8, 0x88, 0x5A, 0x30, 0x8D, 0x31, 0x31, 0x98, 0xA2, 0xE0, 0x37, 0x07, 0x34};
for(a=0;a<16;a++)
[Code] ....
Encrypted text output on command prompt = 39 25 84 1d 02 dc 09 fb dc 11 85 97 19 6a 0b 32
However, my project asks to "read blocks of data from a data file". Therefore I need to alter the main function to read the following arrays from a data file.
Unsigned char CipherKey[16] = {0x2B, 0x7E, 0x15, 0x16, 0x28, 0xAE, 0xD2, 0xA6, 0xAB, 0xF7, 0x15, 0x88, 0x09, 0xCF, 0x4F, 0x3C};
unsigned char PlainText[16] = {0x32, 0x43, 0xF6, 0xA8, 0x88, 0x5A, 0x30, 0x8D, 0x31, 0x31, 0x98, 0xA2, 0xE0, 0x37, 0x07, 0x34};
Firstly, I don't know how to take each individual part in the data file to store into each byte in the array i.e. 0x2B into CipherKey[0] of the array.
Secondly, How do I deal with the fact that each byte is in hexidecimal? How should my data file look?
this is what my data file Input.dat looks like at the minute:
0x2B, 0x7E, 0x15, 0x16, 0x28, 0xAE, 0xD2, 0xA6, 0xAB, 0xF7, 0x15, 0x88, 0x09, 0xCF, 0x4F, 0x3C
0x32, 0x43, 0xF6, 0xA8, 0x88, 0x5A, 0x30, 0x8D, 0x31, 0x31, 0x98, 0xA2, 0xE0, 0x37, 0x07, 0x34
The first line being the CipherKey array and the second being PlainText. I'm not sure if the '0x' or the commas are required.
I basically want to take the data from a file, store them in arrays in the program itself, encrypt the Input array PlainText and create a new file with the encrypted output array stored in it (I will deal with this part of the program after I get the input file done first).

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.
