C++ :: Arrange Names Alphabetically From A Text File

Feb 25, 2013

I'm trying to arrange names alphabetically from a text file. Inside my textfile, it's like : "John", "Edward", "Peaches", "Anna"... etc.(It has thousand more names, all with quotations, separated by comma and I think it's not typed line by line... but using only one line). How can I read each name separately?

this code, it works if the text file contains names separated by lines and without commas and quotations. I do not know with the case I've stated above.

string numbers[1000];
string line;
string number;
string y;
string x;
int z = 1;
ifstream myfile;
myfile.open("names.txt");

[Code]...

This only shows the data inside text file. I'm new in c++.

C++ :: Inserting File Of Names And Sorting Alphabetically?

Feb 25, 2013

A teacher has asked all her students to line up single file according to their first name. For example, in one class Amy will be in front of the line and Yolanda will be at the end.

Write a program that will read in a file of names. Names should be read until there are no more names to be read. Use LineUp.txt as a test file for your program.

Once all the names have been read in display which student will be at the front of the line and which one would be at the end of the line. You may assume that no two students have the same name.

These are the name in the LineUp.txt file if needed:
Cooper
Gavin
Joseph
Sierra
Kacie
Dylan
Kaylee
Will

and so on .....

C :: Convert List Of Names From One Text File To Email Format In New File

Jan 19, 2014

I have almost a hundred names in a text file that I want to convert to email addresses and save to another file. I seem to have it working, but it doesn't print the full names in the email prefix. The output I'm looking for is Doe_John@livebrandm, but I'm only getting D_J@livebrandm. I'm not sure what I should specifically be reading up on that applies to this directly.

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main(void)
{
FILE *fpin=fopen("namesIN.txt", "r");
FILE *fpout=fopen("emailOUT.txt", "a");
char first[20],last[20],inbuff[1500];

C++ :: Program To Read Middle Names Within Text File - Full String Not Appearing

Oct 24, 2014

I've a problem here...

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <conio.h>
#include <string>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;
int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])

[Code] ....

The program needs to be able to read the middle names within the text file named Info2.txt

Simply adding the Mname or any related value where the other to name values doesn't do anything and only the 1st line appears on the output.

Don Jon111012
Jack Bo Todd151015
Jill Jo Jane161011
Bob Jack Chuck 131513
Da Fu111012

That is the correct way it appears in the text file. Also I know it's commented out, but that just to keep the program from crashing.

current output

Survey Results:

Name Results
Don Jon 33.00

This is the Info1.txt file info by the way.

Ken A202017
Gus B151015
Bill C151512
Jara C151720
Lu E101510
Chow B171015

And the output

Survey Results:

Name Results
Ken A 57.00
Gus B40.00
Bill C42.00
Jara C52.00
Lu E35.00
Chow B 42.00

Which when ran with Info1 selected, it is the correct output I'm looking for. I've tried getline and other solutions and they didn't work.

C/C++ :: Text Based Game - Adding Players Names?

Mar 28, 2015

I am trying to make a very simple text based game and I want the players to be able to name their characters. Thus, I am trying to have the game ask "how many players will be playing:" and then taking that number (X) and create a place to store that information. I'm trying to get the game to ask, "What is the name of Player1?" Then once the user enters the name it would ask "What is the name of Player2" and that cycle would continue until PlayerX has entered their name. Is what I am doing close?

Here are the errors:

error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before 'string'(ln 29 col 1)
Error2error C2678: binary '<<' : no operator found which takes a left-hand operand of type 'std::basic_istream<char,std::char_traits<char>>' (or there is no acceptable conversion) (ln 30 col 1)

int NumberOfPlayers;
if (Response1 == "Yes") {
cout << "
How many players will be joining us on our adventure: ";

C :: How To Arrange Input / Output Order

Sep 22, 2014

for our school project, we have to make a program which involves three students and the prices each of them paid for the meals. The program has to calculate how much each of the students has to pay/receive to/from the others. Most of it, we got from our teacher. The error we are getting is that we have to 'take care of the input/output order'. So if you type in the names/numbers of the students in a different way, so for example if you type first number 1, then 0, then 2 and 0 and 1 have to pay money to number 2, number 0 has to be in front of 1. Our output is that number 1 is in front of number 0.

insert
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <math.h>
#include <string.h>

C++ :: Switch Structures - Program To Arrange Values

Mar 5, 2012

Write a program that accepts three values (int) from the keyboard into three variables a, b and c. After loading the variables, your program will arrange the values into a, b, and c, so that a contains the larger, be the next and c the smallest.

You can use any other variables in addition to a, b c, as you see fit.

You will have to use some variation(s) of the if construct.

There are many ways to program this, but your challenge will be to achieve this without doing all possible comparisons. In fact, three comparisons woudl be enough, if you , for example, determine the largest number first, and keep track of its position in some way , so you can compare the other two.

I think I might use a code similar to the one below.

switch (expression) {
case constant1:
group of statements 1;
break;
case constant2:

C++ :: Reads User Input And Arrange Letters In Ascending Order?

Apr 21, 2014

I am trying to build a c++ that reads user input and arrange letters in ascending order.

for example, if the user input: Hello my name is Moe! the output will be: !aeeehillmmmnoos (ascending order)

my problem is that when i input hello my name is moe the output will be ehllo (not completing other letters) also when i change class size to 50, it outputs unknown weird letters.

This is my code:

#define CLASS_SIZE 10
#include <stdio.h>
#include <iostream>
void bubbleSortAWriteToB(const char a[], char b[]);
using namespace std;
int main(void){
int i;

C :: Array Of File Names

Feb 9, 2013

I am trying to create an array of file names such that when I want to open one of the files, who's name is given in the array, I can call that element of the array. My code for making the array is the following,

Code:
char file_name[40];
char *file_locations[N]; // array of N names (*)
for(ii=0; ii<=N-1; ii++){ // printing the names of all the files P1_8mag_1.txt - P1_8mag_N.txt
sprintf(file_name, "P1_8mag_%i.txt", ii+1);

[Code]....

The problem with this is that in the first step: all elements of the array "file_locations" are the name of the last file in the loop (in this case "P1_8mag_N.txt")What is wrong with this?

C# :: How To Get Column Names From Db3 File

Oct 2, 2014

I have .db3 file, and he has 14 tables,and every table has certain number of columns. Example i have table called "BASIC_INFO" and that table has columns "First Name", "Last Name" and "Age".

How can i get name of table and name of every column,so if i some day add column "Male" i get name of this column too. I need first to calculate number of columns,put that in some integer, and then for example create string array which will contain : array[0] = "First Name" ,array[1] = "Last Name"...

SQLiteConnection myConn = new SQLiteConnection("Data Source=" + DB3Path + ";Version=3;New=False;Compress=True;");
//string query = "Select * From " + DB3Path + ".INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS";
string query = "Select * From BASIC_INFO.INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS;";
SQLiteCommand sqCommand = new SQLiteCommand(query);

[Code] ....

I tried this too:

string query = "select * from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS"
+ "where TABLE_Name='BASIC_INFO'"
+ "order by ORDINAL_POSITION;";
string query = "SELECT TOP 0 * FROM BASIC_INFO";

C/C++ :: Taking In File Path Names From User

Jul 22, 2014

How can I take in a path name like "C:myfolderfile.txt" where the user enters exactly that? I've tried putting the arg into a string, then looping through the string to find the '\', but by that time it is too late as c++ considers the '' as a escape character.

Is this even possible? I've googled it and everyone just says to make the user input the path with double \ or with a /.

C++ :: Call Only Those Functions Whose Names Are Written In Disk File

May 26, 2013

Here is a working C++ program and its output that reads the names of a certain number of functions whose names are written in a disk file that provides the control parameters in a near-real time fashion. Based on this information, the program calls those functions whose names were given in this text file as parameters. The method I have used is to build a map of functions that connects the names of the functions to the actual functions. Once this map is created, then it is very easy to iterate in such a way that only those selected functions are called.

So far this is working well, and it makes the logic of the code easier because ultimately there will be a large inventory of functions (probably hundreds of functions), and this way of pre-building a map of functions avoids writing hundreds of if statements in the code. Of course, pre-building this reusable map in the background is still equivalent to writing that many if statements, but at least it makes the code very compact and much more automatic, since it is done only once.

But I now have a related question: In this case (when the selected subset of functions to call is given as incoming data as in this example), does C++ make it possible to avoid using maps of functions, by directly applying the string variable that holds the name of the function in order to call the original function immediately For instance, if a string variable s = "MyFunction", then is there a more direct way of using this string as if it were the actual function whose name is spelled exactly in that way? This would make the code even more compact.

Here is the sample test code for the map of functions, and its output:

First of all here is the text file "FileForNamesOfFunctions.TXT" that contains the part of the "data", which is the set of functions select from from the inventory and only call these:

Code:
function2
function3
function5 And here is the C++ code that uses this "data":

Code:
#include <fstream>
#include <iostream>
#include <sstream>
#include <string>
#include <vector>

C++ :: Program To Pick A Random Name From A File With List Of Names

I just recently started looking into C++ programming so I don't know much.

I was wondering is it possible to write a program to pick a random name from a list of names, which are in a .txt file? or if I could ask the user to input the list of names and then let the program pick a random name?

C++ :: Write A Program That Will Read Names From Input File

Apr 24, 2014

I have a lab with the following instructions:

Manually create an input text file called Lab22BInput.txt with the following data:

Dove
Doe
Alston
Zebra
Egg

Write a program that will read the names from the input file. Print out each of the names read to the screen. The program should go through the list of names and determine which comes 1st in the alphabet. The program should determine how many letters are in this name. Print out the name that comes first in the alphabet and the length of the name.

I have created the input file, and the data correctly outputs to the screen when I run the program. However, I do not know what kind of logic to use to sort them alphabetically and determine the amounts of characters.

So far I have the following:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
string str1, str2, str3, str4, str5;

C :: Sorting Words Alphabetically

Dec 10, 2014

I've tried searching for answers around the web but everyone is using syntax that We haven't been taught before in class yet. I understand that the string library is probably the most efficient way of doing this but is there a way without using that library? Like using if, for, while etc. instead?

I've been told that using anything else other than the string syntax is far to complex but I think the more complex it is the more I will understand it.
