C :: Reading A File In And Separating Line With Strtok Function

May 2, 2013

I'm trying to read a file from the 2nd argument, skipping the first line of the file since it's the name of the columns, and separate each line as a token, by date, subject, startTime, endTime, and location.Here's my code that I got so far:

Code:

void readAppointment(){
if (arg != 2)
exit;
else {
FILE *fp;
fp = fopen( argv[1], "r");
char line[999];

C :: Using Strtok In Conjunction With Fgets Function To Parse File Data

Feb 17, 2013

In the assignment we are forbidden to use fscanf(). I have been trying to get this to work, but I've started to realize that I do not have a complete understanding of what strtok() actually does. I'm getting this warning when debugging: "assignment makes integer from pointer without cast."

This warning happens when assigning str to goal and assist, and I think it is because they are, when dereferenced, integers. The code below correctly assigns the name into the correct spot, but leaves nonsense data in the goal and assist arrays.

ex:-7880, -7888 file example: NAME GOALS ASSISTS JOHN 1 2

Code:
void readLinesFromFile( FILE* Ptr, int* goal, int* assist, char** name, int lines ){/*
* Reads lines from files and populates the arrays with the corresponding info.
*/
int index;
char hold[ MAX_LINE ] = { 0 };
char* str = NULL;

[Code] .....

From what I understand about strtok(), it returns a string, and takes in a character array and a key value that tells it when to stop. In the online examples I've seen, they use NULL in the first field. I'm not sure why.

C :: Reading A File Line By Line (invalid Write Of Size X)

Aug 17, 2014

I am trying to read a file line by line and then do something with the informations, so my method looks like this:

Code:
void open_file(char *link) {
FILE *file = fopen(link, "r");
if (file == NULL) {
fprintf(stderr, "Could not open file.
");
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);

[Code] ....

1) The first complain of valgrind is at the line where I use fgets and its telling me (invalid write of size x), but I have allocated my line to 56000 and the read line is shorter, why is there a write size error then :S?

2) at the line where I realloc where I try to shrink the space he's telling me: Address .... is 0 bytes inside a block of size 56000, But I know i need only this space so why is there a write over space error :S??

C :: Reading A File Line By Line And Storing It Backwards Into A List

Sep 25, 2013

So I'm reading a file line by line and storing it backwards into a list. So if the file has has this format...
1
2
3
4

The code should store each line in a list as such...
4, 3, 2 ,1

Instead the code will store the last variable in all nodes. So the final list will look like this...
4, 4, 4, 4

Here is my code...

struct node *head = NULL;
int i;
while(read(in, &i, sizeof(int)) != 0) {
struct node *temp = malloc(sizeof(*temp));
temp->line = &i;
temp->next = head;
head = temp;
}

C/C++ :: Reading From A File Line By Line With No Specified Number Of Values

Apr 12, 2015

Im trying to read from a file, line by line, with no specified number of values in the file. Check out my code:

int main() {
string x;
ifstream fin;
int count = 0;
char ch;
fin.open("CWC_Master.txt");
if(!fin)

[Code] .....

Now, this works great! However, its skipping some lines. And I dont know why. For example: Lets say that the input file is:

superman toy
sm2335
19.99
batman toy
bm5532
25.99
aquaman toy
am6786
26.00

Where it should output the above, instead it outputs every other one. Like:

superman toy
19.99
batman toy
25.99
aquaman toy
26.00

How can I fix my code so that it SIMPLY(i say simply because I am still a beginner coder) can read line by line?

C++ :: String Operation While Reading Line By Line From A File

May 12, 2014

I have to read the information about logic gates from a file. The file format is shown below:

Code:
gateOne = NAND(inpA, inpB)
gate2=NAND(1,2)
3 = NAND(23,25,26)

As, it can be seen from the above structure that whitespaces are not same everytime. So, to deal with this situation, i am using boost library to remove all whitespaces from the line which is being read and then try to find the name of gate and its input. My code is given below which is able to correctly find the gate names and its first input...but my code is not able to find the second, third and so on input names.

Code:
//C
#include <stdio.h>
//C++
#include <iostream>
#include <sstream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
#include <cstring>
#include <boost/algorithm/string/erase.hpp>

C++ :: Reading From File Line By Line?

Jul 27, 2013

First of all I need to know how to read from file.

Second, I need to read line by line from the file.

For example, the file contains:

8H 3S TH 9D 5S
5D KD 9H 4D 3D
8C TD 5D QS 2C

I wanna use array, so I need to store 8H in array[0], 3S in array[1], until 5S get stored in array[4].

I need to read the first line, the the second, and then the third.

C :: Reading Next Line In File

Mar 6, 2015

how to read the next line in the file. I think I need to use a for loop, but not sure how to implement it.Lets say my input.txt file has three names:

Sally
Tom
Sugar

I can get Sally, but not tom as yet. fgets also gets me to the same place.

Code:

int main(){
char str_1;
FILE * ifp = fopen("input.txt", "r");
fscanf(ifp, "%s", &str_1);
printf("%s", &str_1);
return 0;

C++ :: Extra Line While Reading From File

Nov 15, 2013

My file has these lines.I try to remove extra line in the end, in notepad/gedit, however, after saving it automatically adds up there.

one
two
three

Code:

void help::read_ref(const char* file_name){
std::ifstream file_handle;
file_handle.open(file_name);
std::string line,name;
getline(file_handle,line);
while(!file_handle.eof()){

[code]......

when I print size of map, it comes out to be an extra then what is should be.

std::map<std::String,std::string> ->is my map

on the contrary if I use Code: file_handle >> line; I get correct number of entries in map.

My doubt: getline, automatically finds and in last, it finds a , why it doesn't end the iteration?

I have faced this issue many number of times.

Code: line[0]=='>' I am making this check, then also, I get a null string as key in my map.

I have printed key with their index, using Code: map iterator .

C :: Reading A File Through Command Line

Jul 11, 2013

I'm currently working on making a program that is run through a GUI run through the command line. The program basically takes an app file and a boot file and runs it through a bunch of functions and generates a new outfile. Anyway I'm new to C and can't figure out how to code it so I can type the two file paths into the command line and read them into the function. Is it possible to do this within the "if else" statement?

Code:
int main(int argc, char *argv[]){
const char * const SrcFilePath;
const char * const SRecordPath;
const char * const FopIspFilePath;

C/C++ :: Reading Final Line Of File?

Mar 6, 2014

finding the last line of the code? I have a program with two functions that open and display a joke.txt and punchline.txt file. My joke function (which reads the entire file) works fine. The punchline function, however, does not.

void displayPunch(fstream &file)
{
char ch;
string fileLine;
bool isLine = true;
file.seekg(0L, ios::end);
while(isLine)
{
file.seekg(-1L, ios::cur);

[code]....

The file, punchline.txt, has a bunch of garbage strings with one real string at the end. I need extract and display only the final line of that file.

C++ :: Hangman Game - Reading One Line From TXT File

Dec 23, 2013

My question is how can i read one line from a ".txt" file? To be more clear, i'm trying to write a hangman game. Therefore I'm trying to get words from a "wordlist.txt" file i created. I know a little bit about ifstream, ofstream and fstream. So my function i created to get a random line from this txt (not-completed yet since i don't know how to get that randomized line);

void grw() {
int line;
srand (time(NULL));
line = (rand() % 7972) + 1;
ifstream wordlist;
wordlist.open("wordlist.txt");
}

I created a variable called 'line' for the line number and randomized it (there are 7972 words in ".txt" file). So what i want to do now is to get the word on that line.

C/C++ :: Reading In A Text File With New Line Delimiter?

Feb 23, 2014

I have attached the file that I need to read into a data structure. In the example I am just printing it to the screen. This following code has worked for me before, but now isn't. I have tried in visual studios, and on unix, and neither are running it. I ultimately need it to run on unix.

Example file:

word
book
programming

Here is my function to read in the file.

ifstream file;
string line;
file.open("words.txt");
if(file.is_open()){
while(!file.eof()){
getline(file, line);
cout << line <<endl;
}

C++ :: Separating Routines Into A Separate Implementation And Header File

Oct 18, 2013

I am trying to separate out particular sets of routines into a separate implentation and header file which can be compiled independently to the main program such that the program source consists of a file called customers.h, customers.cpp, and exercise_1_5.cpp

Each of the files should contain the following:

customers.h should contain the definition of the customer structure and the declaration of print_customers.

customers.cpp should contain the implementation (or definition) for print_customers.

exercise_1_5.cpp should contain an include of customers.h and the main program.

This is my original code from a single .cpp file

#include<iostream>
#include<string>
using namespace std;

[Code].....

The error messages I am getting from the compiler on the customers.cpp file:

C:UsersBenDocumentsCS264lab3customers.cpp:5:22: error: variable or field 'print_customers' declared void
C:UsersBenDocumentsCS264lab3customers.cpp:5:22: error: 'customer' was not declared in this scope

C++ :: Reading From File And Store Values Of Each Line In Multiple Variables

May 6, 2013

So I have this text file that I am trying to read from and store the values of each line in multiple variables.

Let's say my text file contains

AXSYZ3482 Tom 100 112

and my code below here works fine when the lines in the text file is separated by spaces.

while (fscanf(fp, "%s %s %d %d
", userID, name, &startLoc, &endLoc) != EOF) {
printf("%s %s %d %d
", userID, name, startLoc, endLoc);
}

But let's say my file was to look like this instead.

AXSYZ3482:Tom:100:112

But if i try this below...

while (fscanf(fp, "%s:%s:%d:%d
", userID, name, &startLoc, &endLoc) != EOF) {
printf("%s %s %d %d
", userID, name, startLoc, endLoc);
}

It seem to store the entire line in userID including the ":". I want to ignore the ":"'s and store everything in between in respective varibles in the order specified above.

So first string in userID, then ignore the :, then second string in name, and ignore the next :, and so forth. How I can accomplish this?

C/C++ :: Palindrome Program - Cstrings Using Strtok Function

Feb 28, 2014

I had an assignment to do a palindrome program but im stuck in this part.

"This c-string will be sent to a function that will remove all spaces and punctuation marks from its c-string as well as change any uppercase letters to lowercase. Use string tokens to eliminate the spaces & punctuation marks. Make sure you include the NULL as you concatenate the tokens into a c-string. Then copy back into the original c-string for the pass by reference."

void tokenptr(char drome[]) {
char *token;
size_t i;
token = strtok(drome, " ,.!:;?");
while (token != '') {

[Code] .....

I'm pretty sure I did that part except how can i pass this cstring back to main? We really haven't even touched much of pointers except to use strtok().

C :: File I/O And Strtok Not Advancing

Nov 20, 2013

I wrote this program, it's supposed to take a user-specified file, which has a bunch of numbers, and add all the numbers in a line and give me a sum and average.

Sample file:
------------------------------------
2 1 2
3 1 2 3
4 1 2 3 4
------------------------------------

This would output:
------------------------------------
Group Size = 2
i = 1 number = 1 Sum = 1
i = 2 number = 2 Sum = 3
Average = 1.50

Group Size = 3
i = 1 number = 1 Sum = 1
i = 2 number = 2 Sum = 3
i = 3 number = 3 Sum = 6
Average = 2.00

Group Size = 4
i = 1 number = 1 Sum = 1
i = 2 number = 2 Sum = 3
i = 3 number = 3 Sum = 6
i = 4 number = 4 Sum = 10
Average = 2.50------------------------------------
// END CONTEXT

Anyway, I wrote this program. Here it is. But strtok doesn't want to advance to teh next token?

Code:

#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
#include<string.h>
int main(void){
int a, sum, number, groupsize;
}
