C++ :: Input File And Store In String
Nov 22, 2013
I'd like to input a file and store the contents of the file in a string.
Here is my code:
std::string inputFile();
int main() {
std::string fileContents = inputFile();
} std::string inputFile()
[Code] ....
It works fine if the file name and path is input correctly.
But, if the file name or path is entered incorrectly, the recursive call to inputFile is executed, and the user is given another opportunity to enter the file. Then, if the file name is entered correctly an error is thrown in Visual Studio 2013:
"Unhandled exception at 0x77F7A9E8 (msvcr120d.dll) in Assignment4.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0xCCCCCCC0."
How could this be done better?

I'm extremely rusty at C but is this the best way to store an input string into a char*?
Code:
int length = 100; //initial size Code: char * name = malloc(length * sizeof(char)); //allocate mem for 100 chars
int count = 0; //to keep track of how many chars have been used
char c; // to store the current char
while((c = getchar()) != '
'){ //keep reading until a newline
if(count >= length)
name = realloc(name, (length += 10) * sizeof(char)); //add room for 10 more chars
name[count++] = c
}
Is this a good way and what could be better?

I am trying to get user's voice as an audio input to a c++ program and store it in a text file (.txt)
I have been searching over the web to find some kind of library or something like OpenCV(video library) for while now but nothing seems to be there.

This program gets input from a file and output to the screen and to a file. The difficulty I am having is summing the number I retrieve from the file for the individual numbers of sightings.
#include <fstream> // enables us to read and write files
#include <iostream> // for cin and cout
#include <cstdlib>
#include <string> // enables us to hold strings of characters
#include <cctype>
using namespace std;

This program will allow the user to input string then scans the file if it contains the same string given by the user. But i always get "MATCHED" even if i enter random string. I tried and tried to place the if statement in different positions but i dont get my expected output.
Code:
#include<stdio.h>#include<stdlib.h>
#include<time.h>
#include<string.h>
int main() {
int found;

"Every number has at most 500 digits" under input. 500? How am I supposed to store that? And what if someone multiplies 999 ...(500 times) * 999 ... (500 times) ? I seriously doubt that my computer can store that! Is that just some huge value used to scare people off or is there some sneaky trick that I am unaware of?
I am done with the program, but won't post it, Lets not ruin the fum for ohers...Does that 500 limit also applies to result of operation?So max length of an input number is ~22 digits ? But still, how do I store 500 digits? Array would be a lot of wastage of memory (though I do have 256MB available).

This program works but i need to build an additional loop that will re-prompt a user if his initial entry (int y_n) is other than 'Y', 'y', 'N', 'n'. For instance if a user tries to enter 'Yup', he will be prompted "That isn't a valid entry" and then re-asked to enter int y_n.
Note: If user answers Y he is asked to enter a value that is entered into an array. If the user at any point answers N, the program ends and final stats are cout.
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main(){
char y_n;
int i = 0;
float input_value;
float myarray[100];

I can`t seem to store multiple values into my vector when a user keys in an input. Lets say a user inputs 1,2 as the first set and later keys in 3,4.
My vector gets overridden by 3 and 4. I'm trying to pass these values into a function to store them into a vector and use them in the function.
Below is my code snippet
int reconstructSecret(int x, int y) {
int getX,getY;
getX=x;
getY=y;
vector<int> myXCordVec;
vector<int> myYCordVec;

I'm coding a hangman game. I'm trying to store user entries so i can output them to show the user what they have already entered. Problem is that it's not display anything at all.
I'm trying to store multiple characters of course, and then display all characters stored.
char guess[27]={0};
cin >> guess[26];
int hit=0;
for(int i=0; i<len; i++) {
if( guess[26] == hidden_word[i] ) {
hit++;
select_word[i] = guess[26];
if(strcmp(hidden_word,select_word) == 0) {
[code]....
EDIT: I also get the error - Stack around the variable 'guess' was corrupted. At the end of the game.

My program is designed to read input from the user and then store that input in a structure variable. Whenever i use the cin.getline() function, it comes up with a semantic issue. Here is the code:
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
const int DESCRIPTION_SIZE = 100, DATE_SIZE = 20;
struct inventory {
string description[DESCRIPTION_SIZE];
[Code] .....
I left out the other functions. The error reads "no matching member function for call to 'getline'.

Write code to do the following:
1) declare a variable ptr as a pointer to int and initialize it to NULL
2) dynamically allocate memory for an array of 100 elements
3) read 100 elements from the standard input device and store them in the array.
This is what I have so far, I'd like to know if its ok or if something is wrong.
int *ptr = NULL;
ptr = new int[100];
cin >> dataPtr [arr];

I am having trouble with parsing out string value into a 2D vector. Suppose i have the string "attack at dawn " consisting of 15 characters, i will like to store it into a 2D vector with 5 rows and 3 columns and the result is as follow.
Vector[0][0] = "a"
Vector[0][1] = "t"
Vector[0][2] = "t"
Vector[1][0] = "a"
Vector[1][1] = "c"

Like if the user enters "38 F" how do I take out the 38 only and store it in a variable? So far my program goes like this:
string text;
double temperature;
cout << "Enter temperature: ";
getline(cin, text); // user enters 38 F
temperature = text // store 38 from string into double

Given this sentence as an input: "Hello my name and "John" (with its spaces and capital letters), print it on the screen .. NB the phrase must be entered from the keyboard all at once ... you can do this in C / C + +?

I'm trying to make a c++ program of this but i don't know how to use the bubble sorting.
Write a C++ application that asks the user to enter 10 numbers. The program then stores those numbers in an Array. The program should display the Mean , Median, and Mode.
Mean is the average of the 10 numbers.
Median is the average of the 5th and the 6th numbers. (But you have to arrange the numbers in ascending order first using Bubble Sort before calculating the Median.)
Mode is the most frequent number among the 10 numbers.

I am trying to read in data from a text file and store it inside a 3D array. The text file looks like this:
bar bell orange
bell bell 7
lemon cherry cherry
I can read in the data fine, but how to store it inside the array. My array looks like : [ Char slotMachine[10][3][8]; ] T
he dimensions are Row, Column, and symbol. There are 10 rows and 3 columns inside the file. The third dimension is supposed to hold the symbols as a C-style string.
This is what I have been trying:
char symbol[8];
int rowIndex = 0, colIndex = 0;
While(fin.good()){
fin >> symbol;
slotMachine[rowIndex][colIndex][] = symbol;
rowIndex++;
colIndex++;
}
I know that i'm not storing the symbol right. How to correctly store it inside the third dimension.

I am trying to store each char of a string(string a ="1100") into a byteArray ( byte[] byteArray = new byte[4]. its not showing any error but its storing like below:
byteArray[0] = 49
byteArray[1] = 49
byteArray[2] = 48
byteArray[3] = 48
and what i want is
byteArray[0] = 1
byteArray[1] = 1
byteArray[2] = 0
byteArray[3] = 0
I don't know why but its replacing 1 with 49 and 0 with 48.what am I doing wrong or how to do this?
my code is as below
byte[] byteArray = new byte[4];)/>
int binArrayAdd = 0;
string a ="1100";
foreach (char Character in a)
{
byteArray [binArrayAdd] = Convert.ToByte(Character);
binArrayAdd++;
}

I want to convert a decimal number to binary and store it in a string so that I can use that binary output for later computation. Here is what I did
Code:
#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
#include<string.h>
void main()
[Code] ....
Now as you can see that all the binary output is in a[] but how do I get it into a string so that I can use something like printf("%s",string) and get the binary output ?
