C++ :: Use Find Function To Search For A Line In Text File
Oct 28, 2013
I'm trying to make a program that will search for a line in a text file using a non default delimitor at the start of the line. An example line in the text file would be as follows:
F Mary Smyth, 19, United Kingdom
I have been able to use the find function to search for and return the 'F' character but would like it to then display the whole corresponding line. Is this possible with the find function?
ifstream readFromFile("data.txt");
string Destinations[1] = {"F "};
string data;
while(!readFromFile.eof()){
getline(readFromFile,data);
[code]...

I have a text file where in each line is 3 words and 2 int type numbers. I'm doing search by word and I want to print out to the screen the whole line where that word was found (the words is repeated in some lines). My search looks like this:
Code:
#include<iostream>
#include<string>
#include<fstream>
#include<stdlib.h>
#include <vector>
using namespace std;
int main(){
vector <string> words;
string str, paieska;
[Code] .....
How to print line(s) where I found that word?

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);

I've written a function that has to receive a word as parameter, and then has to find the amount of times that word (uppercase & lowercase) occurs in a text file:
For example, if the word "the" is sent as a parameter, the total amount of times the words "the" and "THE" occurs in the text file, has to be calculated.
However, my function is not displaying the correct amount, what is wrong with my function:
int WordCount :: countWords(string wrd)
{
int counter=0;
string temp = "";

I have a text file (test.txt) with the following data:
01,05,25,20130728
01,06,25,20130728
01,07,25,20130728

01,05,25,20130728
01,05,35,20130728
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'm have troubles with this program that requires me to make a search through a Linked List and find a specified value. It also needs to be a template function. I've completed the rest of the program fine and everything runs ok except for the search function. Code below:
Linked.h
#ifndef LINKED_H
#define LINKED_H
#include<iostream>
template <class T>
class Linked {
[Code] ....
I have commented out my attempt at the search function. When uncommenting the function I get several errors about <template> being incorrect syntax.

I have code that creates an index file created from a data file of records.
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <map>
#include <sstream>
#include <string>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;
class Record {
[Code]...
I now need to write a second program that allows the user to enter a command on the Linux command line such as
search 12382 prog5.idx
and returns the information for the record with that key. The code I included for the index file is correct and works properly, but how to write the second program.
Here is the index file created by the first program:
8: blank 0 $ 0.00
12165: Item16 30 $ 7.69
12345: Item06 45 $ 14.20
12382: Item09 62 $ 41.37
12434: Item04 21 $ 17.30
16541: Item12 21 $ 9.99
21212: Itme31 19 $ 8.35
34186: Item25 18 $ 17.75
41742: Item14 55 $ 12.36
The top line is a dummy record, the first number is the size of the file.

I am trying to implement a Task scheduler where i have n number of tasks. The Idea behind my task scheduler is that in a loop of queues of a vector, task should get enqueued to the shortest queue among the loop of queues, which is done by the following code.
#include <vector>
#include <queue>
std::vector<std::queue<int> > q
int min_index = 0;
task t // implemented in the other part of the program
[Code] ....
Next i am trying to extend this paradigm to reduce the overhead time of the scheduler, Instead of searching the shortest queue every time, search after some condition ie. search the shortest queue after 5 tasks gets enqueued to the shortest queue.
i need to do something like this
#include <vector>
#include <queue>
std::vector<std::queue<int> > q
task t // implemented in the other part of the program
while(q[min_index].size()!=q[min_index].size()+5) // check whether current min_index queue's size is increased 5 more times if not goto enqueue
[code].....

I wrote this code to search words in the file and display if the program found the word or not. when i write the words in the file on the same line (without the endl) like this :
w_toFile << "gilbert";
w_toFile << "lara";
w_toFile << "rana";
i can search any word.
but when i write them with the endl, the program can find only the first word. what can i do to make the program find any word even if they are each on a line?
here is the full code:
#include <iostream>
#include <windows.h>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main (void) {
string wordsearch;

I have a .txt file which I want to read from and then write a new text file, this time with sorted lines. It is easy to sort one value, but what about sorting entire lines based on one value?
I want to sort the lines based on the FIRST value.
Example text file contents:
values;data
5.01 100
2.9 342
2.69 43534
10.1 43
6.8 45324
Output: Text file containing
2.69 43534
2.9 342
5.01 100
6.8 45324
10.1 43
It's easy to do this if there was only 1 number on each line, but I do I sort all the lines based on the first number in each line?

I need to store the last 3 deposit that I have in my deposit. I have few option but i dont which would be easy
1.Store all deposit to the text file (store always in a new line), and display the last three deposit from the text file.
dep 1 - 60
dep 2 - 40
dep 3 - 100 print 100
dep 4 - 50 print 50
dep 5 - 50 print 50
2. I think this option is more difficult, when it reach deposit 4, to get rid deposit 1
So when i make a deposit 4, the deposit 1 get's ride
dep 2 - 50
dep 3 - 100
dep 4 - 70
Right now i can only display one deposit (last one), then i close the program and run again and i make another deposit it overwrites a new deposit.
My code.
To show sure my deposit that has been made.
double depSave () {
int option;
float dep1,dep2,dep3;// Declare your variables
dep1 = dep2 = dep3 = 0; // Set them all to 0
system ("cls");
string path = "deposit.txt"; // Storing your filename in a string
[Code] ....
Where is says "save deposit" in comment that where it saves to the deposit text file, that going to be output to the depSave function.

I am making a script to read the latest from a text file. It picks up the line by numbytes in fseek, but the data line may vary and numbytes not be accurate, how can I fix this?
And another problem is that the line has, date, time, value, separated by space, how to read that line and put these 3 information in variable?
#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>
int main() {
FILE *arq;
char Line[100];
char *result;
int tam, i;
// Opens a file for READING TEXT
arq = fopen("temp.txt", "rt");

I'm building a find and replace function for my text editor I'm building the function without support from the algorithm header.
The function is written like: doc.find_replace("Word_to_be_replaced", "The_word_that_is_replacing"); I find this very easy to understand replace this, with this.
find_replace will both have char * as their arguments.
The problem I'm having right now if I replace a bigger word for a smaller word how do I delete the extra characters from memory.
So if I replace "Goodbye" with "Hello" how do I delete the last two characters? So I don't print garbage code.

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;

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).
