This is about reading a "txt file" and storing the contents in a variable. But i've got problems with it because normally, it is space delimited, that is, values separated by spaces are considered different values. How am I going to make C++ read the whole line including spaces?
View 14 RepliesI 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;
}
}
file.close();
Why this code outputs 7 lines (the last line twice) while the file contains 6 lines?
cout << "read msgfile
";
ifstream msgfile ("script1.msg");
while (msgfile.good()) //if not at end of file, continue reading {
// load vector with deffile
msgfile >> line;
vectormsgfile.push_back (line);
cout << line << "
";
}
msgfile.close();
I am working on a project for school that has us read in a text file that contains 8 lines of SSN and grades. I am not sure how to go about reading in the lines and differentiate between the SSN and grades in the calculations.

I want to store the address of a customer (with spaces) in a char variable (say cadd). First I tried to use "cin", as we know it reads until it sees any whitespace. So it reads only first word before a white space. So, I used "getline()" function. But when I used it, It didn't wait for the I/P (it skipped it).
char cadd[20];
std::cout<<"Enter Customer Address:
";
std::cin>>cadd;
std::cout<<"Enter Customer Address:
";
std::cin.getline(cadd,20);
I stumbled into this forum in frustration as I tried to pass a string with both quotes and spaces into a single variable. I have looked up a couple places online, and even saw an old post here (Handling spaces in command line arguments) However, I still cannot seem to get the following string (in between the ---'s) to stay in one command line argument.

I must create a program (a simple main.cpp in console interface) which deletes two spaces for every newline in a file. If a line has no space, it goes straight to the next line to the end of the file. After the program is to resave the file contents into a new file that has the same name as the old, but change the extension to. Modif
The problem is I can not do that ... Do you have a sample code that does this?
I am practicing with C++ since I done most of C already and I have a problem with reading spaces from a .txt file.
I created a little program that creates a wannabe Cube in wannabe 3D xd, well to appear as 3D like:
Code:
cout << " O------O" << endl;
cout << " / /|" << endl;
cout << " / / |" << endl;
cout << " / / |" << endl;
[Code] .....
The actual code is a bit longer since it offers you to input the size and then it draws the pic. Now that wasn't so hard and I've done that but now I wanted to implement the "MessageBox" func for output.
I managed to write the cube in file cube.txt but when I'm reading from it 1 char at a time since I need to output as char array it avoids all spaces and new lines and just puts all symbols in the same row.
I didn't have that issue with C and I've found on stackoverlow a solution using strings & getline but I need it to be in "char" form.
How to actually read spaces and newlines? This is my current code for reading from file:
Code:
ifstream di("kocka.txt", ios_base::in);
char c[5000];
int br=0;
while( di >> c[br])
{
br++;
}
MessageBox(NULL, c, "Kocka", MB_ICONHAND);
di.close(); P.S kocka = cube (in croatian )
All I have so far is a rectangle that prints 5 stars in length and 20 lines in length. What I want to do now is have each new line print an extra space more than the line before it and then print 5 stars.. This is what I have so far:
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
int main (void){
int i;
for(i=1; i<=20; i++){
printf("*****

I need to write a program that reads a paragraph from a file (i dont know its length) and i need to read it with spaces
i thought of using getline() function but there were problems:
1) how to detect End Of File
2) how to use getline while reading from file
and thought of reading one character at a time but it didnt read spaces
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);

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??
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;
}
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?
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>

How to read a file line by line and then later access them by doing something like
Code:

I want to read this to one string called line. So far I have this code:
string line;
ifstream myfile ("/home/Test.txt");
if (myfile.is_open()) {
while (myfile.good()) {
getline (myfile, line);
for (int a = 0; a <= 335; a++) {
cout <<line.at(a);
} }
myfile.close();
}
so far its only printing the first line and then throwing an instance of 'std::out_of_range'
I can able to get the last line ten chars but i cant get if the last line is null.
here is my code
#include <cstdlib>
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <sstream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
[Code] ....
here with i have enclosed my file where i am pick my last ten chars ...
Attached Files : log.txt (4.8 KB)
General Purpose: Delete all "white spaces" in text file, until the read-in char is _not_ a whitespace (mark as start of text file).
Problem: Cannot seem to shift char's over properly. (I think my problem is the inner loop - however other code may lead to this problem - I do not know)
Code:
#include <fstream>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
bool trimWhiteSpace(fstream &file, char * charMemoryBlock) {
if (!file.is_open()) {
[Code] ....
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.
how do i implement codes where it shall prompt for an user id.
From the input,the system shall look into the file..and output if the data exist.
For example in the file,
A123
Robinson
012345
B345
Crusoe
543210
So,i juz wanna input for B345.
Output shall be:
B345
Crusoe
543210
The code below is reading the whole data in the file but I only want to read one.
#include<iostream>
#include<fstream>
#include<iomanip>
#include<string>
using namespace std;
int main() {
fstream inFile;
[code]....
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;
}
void login() {
//username, password, option to register, option to exit, link to website
cout << "Would you like to login(1), or press anything else to register.?" << endl;
cin >> loginYorN;
if (loginYorN == 1) {
cout << "Please enter your username: ";
cin >> accountInfo[1];
[code]...
So as above, I ask them to input 1 for login, anything else for register. Whatever they input, it get's stored into loginYorN, then I check to see what they input. If they put '1' for input, then I ask them for their username, store that into accountInfo[1], and then asking for the password, storing that into accountInfo[2].
Now here is where I need to input line 1(username) from login.csv or login.txt and line2(password) and storage these into accountID and accountPW.
I had a problem which i fixed it but couldn't fix it in a nice way. Lets understand my problem first, i have a file and has data in the following format
Id(int) and Description(string)
Code:
1 this is first line
1 continuity of first line
1 again first line
2 this is second line
3 this is 3rd line
3 continuity of 3rd line
3 again 3rd line
3 and again
4 fourth line
I was only interested in the integer part and ignore the description at first, it was easy because they are separated by a tab.
Here is my code for that problem
Code:
#include<iostream>
#include<fstream>
#include<string>
#include<cstdlib>
#include<limits>
using namespace std;
int main(){
string str;
[Code] .....
But now i need that description again which i ignored at first means the rest of the line, so how to get it? so is there any way of solving it? Here is my approach but i can't find any method to access to the rest of line
Code:
value = atoi(str.c_str());
(if value==1){
cout <<restOfTheLine<<endl;
}
I have a file blah.txt like this:
3 1 4
1 2 3
and here is my code to read in that file:
Code:
int x = 0, y = 0, z = 0;
ifstream data("blah.txt");
while(x != 1)
{
data >> x >> y >> z;
}
For some reason, it just keeps readin in the values: 3 1 4
