C++ :: Converting String To Char And Float

Nov 15, 2013

So I have to convert ("a499.9") into a char and a float while ignoring the a.

I have the string stored in a buffer and found how to get the char, 4. But I don't know how to get 99.9 as a float.

Here is my code so far.

#include <string>
using namespace std;
main() {
buffer = "a499.9";

[Code] ....

My output:

4
0

How to get that double out?

Visual C++ :: Converting Float To String?

May 16, 2014

I have an assignment that is due on monday I am stuck on this function. I have to convert my netpay which is a float to a string So if i have 356.26 it should output the sum of three hundred fifty-six and 26/100 dollars my program function works for the sum of three hundred but after that it spits out garbage.

Code:
void convertNetPay(float netPay, char *netPayString) {
int numHuns, numTens, numOnes;
char OnesTable[9][8]={"One","Two","Three","Four","Five","Six","Seven","Eight","Nine"};
char ResultString[10+1];

C/C++ :: How To Split A String Into Various Types (integer / Float / Char)

Nov 28, 2012

I'm reading lines from a text file in C++ which contains integer + string + float number(like 3,67 with comma) + string in this order. I need the float number to sort the lines but I couldn't manage to separate the data into the types I can use so far. I tried different kind of functions and the best I could do was such a code;

void main (){
     ifstream records;
     records.open("records.txt");  
    int id;
    string line;
    char name[100];
    float gpa;

[Code] ....

This fails at reading the floating number which has comma in it and then last string is read as string starting with the comma and rest of the number. An output example is:

698 John 3 ,67

It doesn't read last string on the line as well. I understand that part but simply I need another read but what I want exactly is to separate one line using "tab" as a seperator into proper data types and then using the numbers as integers, and the grades as floating numbers. How Can I do this?

C++ :: Converting String To Char Array

Mar 30, 2014

In this program, I have to ask the user for an employee, then the program will check to see if the file for that employee exist, if it doesnt then it will automatically create the file.

ReadNew function reads the file....check to see if it exist

CreateNew function creates a new file.

In my code I have no problem with the first part of reading file.. and my createnew function works in other programs where I am asking for input of file name to create the file name. However in this code I cannot figure how to automatically pass the input filename from the ReadNew function to the CreateNew function. I can't ask the user to enter the name a second time, so I have to pass the input filename into both functions. Here is my code.

Code:

//Create a file, append to it, and read it.
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdio.h>
using namespace std;
char filename[256];
string n;
string filelist;
void CreateNew(ofstream & FileNew);

[Code]...

C++ :: Converting A String Input To Char?

Feb 8, 2015

I am writing a program that asks the user for their gender. I know that atoi converts arrays into integers, but I need the input from the user in the form of F or M into a char, and return it to the main function to be displayed at the end of the program.

string Employee::getgender(char gen)
{
cout << "Please enter your Gender: " << endl;
//atoi function would go here, what for char?
getline(cin,gen)

C/C++ :: Converting From Float To Decimal?

Sep 11, 2014

Question: A computer uses 10 bits to store integers with 1 bit for a sign. It stores an approximation of real numbers in 10 bits. The first bit of the first five is the sign of the mantissa and the other four bits are the mantissa. The first bit of the second five is the sign of the exponent and the other four the exponent.

1)What is the range of integers?

2)what is the range of real numbers(Float Type)

The first question was simple. I just found the smallest 10 digit binary number 1000000000 = -512 and then found the largest 10 digit binary number which would have to be 0111111111 = 511, therefore the range of integers is from -512 to 511.

For the second question - I am either making this harder than it is, or it really is a challenging question. So I followed the steps and first I was thinking I would take the number 1000000000 and convert this to a decimal (assuming its a 10 bit float)...But, can you even do this with a 10 bit float??

I ended up getting 1000000000 (after denormalizing) = .000100000 = 0.625.. would that be the minimum range? If so, then I know what I need to do to find the maximum , but if not - then I am really lost.

My Process was:

1.00000 X 2^(-4) = my final result of 0.625 after converting.

C++ :: Converting Char To Hex

Nov 8, 2014

Having trouble converting char to hex.

according to here [URL] ....
ô in decimal is 147 and print ô using alt 147

and here [URL] ....
ô in dec is 244 but prints ⌠ using alt 244

put on console

char c = ô;
cout << (int)c << endl;

prints -109 and print m using alt -109

I am using alt to test char output. Why I'm getting a negative value? Which of the tables are correct? I have string of char that I want to print in hex. I get a hex string but the hex value don't correspond to any of the two tables on the websites because the console converts special char to negative values.

C++ :: Typecasting Char Array To Int (Not Converting)

Jun 1, 2014

I am looking for the correct syntax to typecast a character array as an int. So I would be able to do something like this:

char ch[4];
//...Read characters from file into ch or something, etc...
int i = ( int ) &ch;

or

char ch[4];
//...Read characters from file into ch or something, etc...
int i;
strncpy ( ( char* ) &i, ch, 4 )

I want all the 4 characters ( or bytes ) of ch to be classed as an int. So we are taking the 4 bytes of the character array and placing them in 4 bytes of the integer? How would i go about this?

C++ :: Float / Double To String Conversion

Oct 22, 2013

I want a code that can convert floating/double value into string/char array(char arr[]) and also it can be run on Boreland C++ 5.02

Here I've a code but it doesn't show all the numbers. Instead, it's showing in exponential form which I don't want!!

int main() {
char* str = new char[30];
float flt = 2.4567F;
sprintf(str, "%.4g", flt );
cout<<str<<endl; //Exponential form even after 6 digits without decimal

C++ :: Making Float To String Function

Jan 23, 2015

I have this:

void reverse(char *in, int isize) {
char t = 0;
for( int a = 0; a < isize / 2; a++ ) {
t = in[a];
in[a] = in[(isize - 1) - a];
in[(isize - 1) - a] = t;
[Code] .....

s:
float:123456
s:123456

The function i made is working fine, exacly how cout << float is working. The problem is i think my function is not really effective. By that i mean my function is doing alot of useless stuff to do what i want and there have to be a better way.

The rule is that you can not use other functions, only playing with loops and operators.

C/C++ :: Unlimited Number Of Arguments - Float To String Conversion

Mar 21, 2015

So, I'm supposed to do : Create a function with unlimited number of arguments, which forms a dynamic string based on the following form (%d, %s, %f, %lf, %c), with the following prototype:

char*create(char*form, ...);

The function is supposed to have the following output:

create("Peter is %d years old and is in %s-%c class.",7,"second",'A');
-> Peter is 7 years old and is in 7-A class.
create("His GPA is %lf.",4.96);
-> His GPA is 4.96.
create("His favourite subject is math!");
-> His favourite subject is math!

I've managed to do the following :

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdarg.h>
char *create(char *form, ...) {
char *res =(char*)calloc(1,1),*pos_int,*pos_float,*pos_str,pos_char,*pos_long;

[Code] ....

The part with %d and %s string was not that hard, but now I'm supposed to convert %f and %lf to string, I've tried using sprintf but I've had no luck so far, another problem is the fact that I've gotta use lists to complete the task. I've been trying to convert float to string for the past 2 hours, but I'm drawing a blank now.

C++ :: Debug Error When Taking A String And Casting It To Float With File Stream

May 9, 2014

Debug Error

ProjectsFinal ProjectGrItemDebugGrItem.exe

R6010 - abort() has been called

I was going over this with a friend and it seems as though getline() is not reading anything in and thus throwing the abort error. I'm not sure why this is because I've included the textfile, with the correct name of course, in both the regular file location and the debug folder. I ask for user input and the user then inputs the name of the file they want, I do some required things behind the scenes and display the results for them in a cmd window. I've included pastebin files for both my header and cpp files because it is far to large for one post I shall, however, post the full code in the comments.

Quick Code

The problem occurs on line 159. I'm assuming once this line is fixed, line 163 will have the same problem.

// Read regular price
getline(nameFile, input, '$');
vectorList[count].regPrice = stof(input.c_str());// Casts string to a float
// Read sale price
getline(nameFile, input, '#');
vectorList[count].salePrice = stof(input.c_str());
