C++ :: Check Wrong Input Data

Jan 20, 2013

i'm making a for loop for a mini game which required the user to enter the input number.Let say if the user accidently entered a character instead of integer the whole program will go haywire so is there anyway to check for the error and prompt the user to input the data again?Here is the simple program...

for(row=0;row<4;row++)
{
printf("Enter Row%d:",row);
for(col=0;col<4;col++)
{
scanf("%d",&num[row][col]);
}

C++ :: How To Check For Data Type When Input Value Into Program

Apr 11, 2013

How would I check for proper data type when someone is to input a value into the program? Ex:

int i;
string a;
cout << "Enter a number: ";
cin >> i;
cout >> "Enter a string: ";
cin >> a;

How would you check to make sure that int i would be an actual number and not a letter like "a"?

C++ :: Cin Input Validation Returns Wrong

Jul 11, 2014

I have this function that is supposed to take a float as a parameter and then call the getLine() method to accept the users input. The function basically just checks to see if what the user input was of the same data type, if it is it returns the input value, if not then it keeps looping through taking new input until its correct. The problem is no matter what number you put in the output always returns as 140734799803512.

float InputValidation(){
float num;
string strInput;
while (true){
getline(cin, strInput);

[Code] ....

You also need to include <string> and <sstream>.

C++ :: WAV File Reading Wrong Data

Jan 19, 2015

I have been experimenting with a program that loads WAV file and tries to read 1s and 0s from audio file (binary coded information). So far I got working code, but the problem is that I'm not getting correct data. I do get somewhat similar data. The problem is that I get data that amplifies low amplitudes, so instead some noise and binary data I get lots of noise and hard to recognize binary data. My code is this

#include <stdio.h>
#include <iostream>
#include <math.h>
using namespace std;
// An unsigned char can store 1 Bytes (8bits) of data (0-255)

[Code] .....

This is wav file in binary viewer (after header)

0030 0032
00300035003200320035003A0048004A
004C0049004A00510049004300360038

and translated to decimal

48 50
4853505053587274
7673748173675456

and this is output from "wavosaur" program (and this one is correct)

0.001465
0.001526
0.001465
0.001617
0.001526
0.001526
0.001617
0.001770
0.002197
0.002258
0.002319
0.002228
0.002258
0.002472
0.002228
0.002045
0.001648
0.001709

You can see it's not the same. I do get the same data like I do from binary viewer, but I don't understand how they are translated to amplitude value. ? Where is the catch?

So this is not really question about c++, but about wav file structure and reading data.

C++ :: Correct Answer From File - Cin Getting Wrong User Input

May 31, 2014

So I'm writing a program that will read a text file and it will do certain "functions" the text file will be like a game, and the program will be able to run many different games. The problem i'm having is in one of the "functions" i believe it's the one meant to get a correct choice from a file and a user input and put them into strings, it gets the wrong input. I know this because i tested both strings the "function" writes too. it gets the correct file answer but the user input is always "c" for some reason.

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
#include <stdlib.h>
using namespace std;
int progfiles() {

[Code] ....

This is the code, most likely the section that is surrounded with "///" contains the problematic "functions." This is the command Line output...investigate why they're dieing or continue on your journey?(i-investigate/c-continue) got input and answer

i
c
i
Press any key to continue . . .

The got input and answer are tests to make sure it got both, the first 'i' is my input, the 'c' is what it says my input is, and the 'i' is the correct answer from the file. this is the part of the file that the program reads to get that output

"1 Do you want to go investigate why they're dieing or continue on your journey?(i-investigate/c-continue) 2 8 i 7 3 4 You continue on picking up speed to get to the egg first.. and.. Oh No, You accidentally bumped into the walls! 2 12 5 1 You go over, and as you realize the walls are acidic and that's why the other sperm are dieing.. 2 6"

C++ :: How To Check If Input Is Integer

Jan 15, 2013

I have an assignment to do..i have done it..but i need to do one more thing. Things sound like this: user inputs 6 integers program needs to check them if there are integer if not it has to output a message for the user if the input is integer it has to go further and work with the input. I have used this structure :

if ( ! ( cin >> temp ) ) {
cout<<"Input is not integer.This program will end ! "<<endl<<endl<<endl;
system("pause");
return 0;
}

Where I declared temp as being int since i started, the problem is after it gets the last input still waits for an input i will attach the source code if needed.

C :: Check If Input Is Integer Using Only Loops?

Nov 3, 2013

I have a homework that needs to verify if the input of the user is an integer using only loops no if statements Here's the problem:

A program is required that prompts the user for a number. The program will then print a series of asterisks to represent the number. If the user enters a number less than 1, the program stops. For example:

Enter a number: 5
*****
Enter a number: 3
***
Enter a number: 9
*********
Enter a number: 0

All user input must be validated:
- Check for non-numeric input when reading numeric input
- Check that values entered are within the expected range for their purpose, or in range based on the requirements statement

C++ :: Check Input And Store Value In Array

Nov 8, 2013

This program works but i need to build an additional loop that will re-prompt a user if his initial entry (int y_n) is other than 'Y', 'y', 'N', 'n'. For instance if a user tries to enter 'Yup', he will be prompted "That isn't a valid entry" and then re-asked to enter int y_n.

Note: If user answers Y he is asked to enter a value that is entered into an array. If the user at any point answers N, the program ends and final stats are cout.

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main(){
char y_n;
int i = 0;
float input_value;
float myarray[100];

C# :: Check Input Date Between 2 Dates (not SQL)

Oct 8, 2014

In my WinForm, Our client insists to use Textbox instead of DateTimePicker field, and they want to input in ddmmyy format.

Using Visual Studio 2010 C# 4.0.

PC date time setting: GMT +08:00 dd-MMM-yy.

Assumed today date is 291014 (29-Oct-14).

CodeBehind:

DateTime inputDate;
// the WinForm allows user to input date not earlier than 2 years before today date and not more than 1 months from today date too.
//Assumed I input date as 261014 (26-Oct-14)
if(DateTime.TryParseExact(input, "ddMMyy", new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-US"), System.Globalization.DateTimeStyles.None, out inputDate)) {
DateTime minDate = DateTime.Now.AddMonths(-24);//Assumed it is 29-Nov-14
DateTime maxDate = DateTime.Now.AddMonths(1);//Assumed it is 29-Oct-12

I tried many methods but none works (I have checked many threads/forums also).

//Method 1
if(inputDate >= minDate && inputDate <= maxDate)
return true

//Method 2: B return true but A ***always*** return false, Why??
if (inputDate >= minDate)
A = true;

Visual C++ :: Check If Input Is Integer Or Not

Jun 20, 2014

I have been trying to make a very simply programme that checks if the inputted information is an integer or not (i.e: that it contains no other characters).

I have tried using the isdigit function (but this only works for single characters). I have tried cin.clear, cin.ignore (1000) but this doesn't work either..

Any effective way to check if x in the following programme has been entered correctly

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main() {
cout << "Please enter an integer (positive or negative)" << endl;
int x;
cin >> x;
HERE I WOULD LIKE CODE TO CHECK IF THE USERS INPUT IS VALID
}

C :: Check To See If String From Standard Input Is Alphanumeric Or Not?

Dec 25, 2014

I'm trying to check to see if a string from standard input is alphanumeric or not. I feel as though there may be a function for this but...

Code:
for(test_pass = i; test_pass < i; i++){
if(test_pass[i] == ('1', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6', '7', '8', '9', '0'))
printf("Your password is alphanumeric!
");
}

The compiler wasn't too happy with this.

I wonder how can I improve my validity check for user input? I only want them to key in certain range of digit.

Also for my validity check, when I key in character such as ABC, it lead to infinity loop

I am working on this project where I need to see if data in a struct has changed and if so I need to do something. With that being said, is there a way to check to see if data in a struct has changed. My first approach was to make a copy of the struct and compare the original struct with the copy but I was having problems with the operator==.

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

C++ :: How To Error Check If User Input Is Letters And Not Numbers

Jun 9, 2014

How do I error check if the user is inputting letters and not numbers? For example, if the user inputs "Lab.txt" I need to display an error message. If they input "Lab2part2.txt" then this is correct and what I want.

I've found a lot of information online on how to error check for numbers or a single letter (EX: 1,2,3, etc. or 'A' 'B' 'C') but nothing for actual WORDS or maybe I should refer to it as a string of characters?

Is there any way to do this? Because my program requires I ask the user to input the name of the file. But the way my code is currently set up is even when the user inputs the wrong file name it still opens the file. I want to prevent this from happening so my thought was to error check user input.

/*Program to determine company's weekly payroll*/

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;
void OpenTheFile() {
ifstream inputFile;
string filename;
char letter;
int number;
