C++ :: Storing Multiple Arrays Based On User Input

Feb 7, 2014

I'm trying to create a function where it allows the user to type in multiple amounts of integers, so if the user wanted to have 3 different storages that hold different integers, the input would look something like this:

5
97 12 31 2 1 //let's say this is held in variable "a"
1 3 284 3 8 // "b"
2 3 482 3 4 // "c"
2 3 4 2 3 // "d"
99 0 2 3 42 // "e"

Since we don't know what number the user will input every time, I'm not sure how to create a dynamically allocated array that will create an x amount of arrays every time.. I want to be able to access each index of a, b, c, d, e or however many arrays there are.

So far, this is what I have, but I'm having trouble creating the arrays since it's unpredictable. I'm purposely not using vectors because I don't really get how pointers work so I'm trying to play around with it.

int* x;
int length, numbers;
cin >> length;
x = new int[length]
for (int i=0;i<length;i++)
{
cin >> numbers; //this doesn't work because it only grabs the first line for some reason
x[i] = numbers
}

Visual C++ :: Search Function - Ask User To Input Name And Brings Out Line From TXT File Containing Information

Dec 8, 2013

How to get this thing to work. All i need to do is ask user to input a name and then it brings out the line from the .txt file containing the information.

For example in my case I'm doing a member search function I'm required to ask user to input the name of the customer and then print out all the details (which consumes 1 text line in the .txt file)

Here is the code, This is the write to text file method (100% working)

Code:
cout << "Customer Name: ";
cin >> name;
// ...
ofstream myfile("customer.txt", ios::app);

C++ :: Incorporate Array Of Structures To Read User Input Then Reprint That Information To Screen

Nov 18, 2014

I have to create a program that incorporates an array of structures in order to simply read input from the user and then reprint that information to the screen. This is a fairly simple problem, but the issue is that the professor requires that we solve it in a very specific way.

I must have three functions in total: one to receive input from the user, one to print the received values, and of course the main function which calls the other two. Also, the input and output functions must be defined using the following prototypes:

void inputData(Component C1);
void printData(Component *C1);

Where Component is a structure defined above as:

typedef struct// Component {
float cost;
int code;
char name[30];

[Code] ....

I know that this problem could be easily solved by simply passing the entire 'comp' array to the inputData function, or passing a pointer to it, or having it return a pointer, but I am not allowed to do any of these things. I must use the function as defined by the prototype.

C++ :: Array Of Structures - Storing Product Information

Nov 5, 2013

I have been dealing with this problem for quite some time, I've been assigned to develop a program that can store products' information within structures (the number of products is undefined). I thought I should use an array of structures, but I don't know how to declare it properly. This is what I thought would work:

struct product {
string name;
string in_stock;
float sale_cost;
int id; }
prod [n]; //n being the undefined number of products the user will register/delete/modify

I already saw an example of array of structures, but it uses a defined number.

C++ :: Program That Will Allow A User To Input Their First Name Into A String

Feb 23, 2015

So we have a weekend assignment that is "Write a c++ program that will allow a user to input their first name into a string, and use the switch/case statement to produce the following output. Your Program should prompt the use rwith the numbers and the options for each (school, classification, and mood) allowing them to make a choice"

My issue is with the output. The output at the end is the number that they input and not the name of the case they chose, so if they chose option 1 for school it does not print out "BRCC" at the end for the output it prints a 1.

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main(void) {
string name;
cout << "Please enter your name: ";
cin >> name;

C++ :: Age Is Int Variable And Name Is A String - User Input

Jun 18, 2013

I have a problem that states: age is an int variable and name is a string.

What are the values of age and name after the following input statements execute.

cin << age;
getline(cin, name);

if the input is:

a. 23 Lance Grant

b. 23 Lance Grant

Ok I have been fooling around with this book all day. My instructer wants us to build the program instead of just saying

a = 23 Lance Grant

How to input B. I mean when I write the program I do not know how to ask for two lines for one input.

C++ :: Capitalize Every Other Word In A User Input String

Nov 14, 2014

I've been agonizing over this all day. The assignment is to capitalize every other word in a user input string.

My logic is as follows:

1. I have the program get each character until it encounters white space (using for loop)
2. Then it should capitalize each character after the white space until it encounters another white space (using while loop).

My problem though is when i try to create a condition for while loop i have to terminate is when white space is encountered, but the very first character to start the while loop is a white space..

I was told to define boolean values, but after trying a few boolean conditions I'm still stuck..

Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <cctype>
using namespace std;

C++ :: String Array - Sorting User Input

Oct 25, 2013

I have been reading up on arrays and string array. I created a string string text[0] and it is defined by user input. I am trying to sort the input. I want Michael to read Macehil.

When I wasn't using an array and just a string I did this:

return sort(text.begin(), text.end()); a

And it worked fine. Do I need to change my string into a char? If so, would I static cast that?

C++ :: Converting User Input Int To String Output?

Apr 22, 2014

I am writing a code in a class that will change the user input which is integer to a string. For example if the user enter 13347..the output should change to "one three three four seven" on the user screen.I'm not getting the right output.

Code below:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
string arr[]={"one","two","three","four","five","six","seven","eight","nine"};
class convertTo{
public:
int signed num;
int convet(){
cout<<"Enter a number to convert to string "; cin>>num;

C++ :: Take User Input As String And Test To See If Matches A Word

Dec 4, 2014

I'm creating a program that takes user input in the form of a string and tests to see if it matches a word. Each correct word will increase their score by one. Here is a portion of the code that is not working.

...
else if(s == 32) {
if(!currentLetter.empty()) {
currentLetter.erase(currentLetter.length() - 2, currentLetter.length() - 1);
} if(currentLetter.compare(oWord) == 0) {

[Code] .....

To me, this looks like it should do a very simple task as intended-take a String, compare it to another, and reset the word if they match or output incorrect if not. But, I'm not sure if there is some quirk in C++ with Strings, because this code always outputs Incorrect. Please try again. and the score never increases. I also tested this by literally setting the strings equal in the code, which still resulted in it not doing what it's supposed to.

C++ :: Formatting User Input And Check How Many Words Are In String

Feb 5, 2013

I'm trying to write a short program that takes the input from a user and trims any leading/trailing white space, and then checks how many words are in the string. Problem is, I'm only allowed to use stdio.h and stdlib.h. How can I accomplish this? Also, how would I check if any of the characters which were entered aren't either a number, letter, or '-'?

C :: Take Personality Information From User And Store It In Text File

May 17, 2014

I was trying to make a program in C that could take Personality Information from the user and store it in a text file. Then, when asked, could compare the results to other entries in the so called "data-base" and tell which is the best match. I tried a whole lot but couldn't think of a proper way.

(Stings and File IO are not my strong points)

I am using Code Blocks 10.05 and the standard GCC compiler.

C++ :: Dynamic Data Structures And Information Input

Feb 17, 2013

I want to have input data stored in a database. All information entered is to be stored under a single block. That way whenever I want to recover that information all I have to do is point to that block. Think of it like this. I want a large square block that can hold certain information. Inside of that large block are a finite amount of smaller blocks in which the user entered information about a single subject. Lets say block 1 has a name, address, and phone number. The second block will have the same TYPE of information, but different values as entered by the user. I.E:

BLOCK 1: Name 1, Address 1, Phone 1
BLOCK 2: Name 2, Address 2, Phone 2
etc.

The large block contains all of the smaller blocks, we will name the large block "Address Book" ... How would I implement that? Of course it would be just a simple console program that would erase all information when the program shut down, but I've been trying to figure out how to do it, but just can't seem to grasp a good notion of how to do it. What would be the best way to do that? Structures? How would I make it dynamic so that I wouldn't have to define every block, so that it would be added on the fly when someone inputs new information.
