C :: Create Word Search By Reading In Characters From A File Into Array
Sep 30, 2013
So the plan is to create a word search by reading in characters from a file into an array. This is my code so far, nowhere near finished but have encountered a problem already:
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#define ROWS 20
#define COLUMNS 20
int main()
{
[Code]...
My question is to do with the section highlighted in red... I can't really see why it is not printing out my array (wordsearch), it's probably very basic but I have no C experience so am not too confident in what I'm doing.

I am currently working on writing a word search program. However, I am stuck on reading the used input into the 2-D array. The code I've posted below is only dealing with the user input (I'll work on the word search part once I know i am correctly reading in the user input). I know the coding is bad practice with the use of hexadecimal, and getchar() ect. But I am currently using a microblaze microprocessor and this is just the way microblaze can interpret the information. As for the infinite while loops...that can be changed just trying to figure out how.
My question is how could I change my code to correctly read in the user input into the 2-D array?
Code:
#include "platform.h"#include "xparameters.h"
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#define MAX 20
int main() {
char grid[MAX][MAX], word[30];
int i, j, arr[2],num;
[Code] ....

The function should search the array of strings to find how many times the word 'the' was used. but its only returning a 0.
int FindThe (int The, char Paragraph[], char Pattern[]) {
for (int i(0); i < 500; i++) {
if (Paragraph[i] == Pattern[0] {

i've been trying to figure out to search for a word in a text file and then display everything in the same row as the word found int ie this is whats in the file
john doe 3/21/1920 tech support review team 45,000
so user wants to find tech..and everything associated with it.
so program search for tech, when it does it then display the whole row.
john doe 3/21/1920 tech support review team 45,000
I can figure out how to search for a word, but no clue how to get it to then print out the row. This is all I can figure out to do.
ifstream FileSearch;
FileSearch.open("employee");
if(FileSearch.is_open())
{string letters;// search word would be store here
string row; ??stores entire row as string
while(1)

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?

I have some files for input that look like this:
Carlitos, Gauleses , Terra das Vagabundas, SN., 350, 12, 5.83
EMPIRE STATE, Gauleses , EMPIRE STATE, FÊNIX™, 298, 12, 7.00
bigorna, Gauleses , Aldeia d bigorna, DDT@D, 318, 12, 10.44
akemif, Romanos , Aldeia Akemif, DDT@D, 19, 12, 13.04
Black Mason, Gauleses , Kindorim, DDT@D, 424, 12, 15.03

I get this data from a site and I copy paste them to create a .txt file for input (I do this my self, no program involved).
When the program runs it ends up like this on netbeans:
0 [main] program 2336 open_stackdumpfile: Dumping stack trace to program.exe.stackdump
When I type the input file my self it works fine. When I copy the data from the site that the problem occurs, it looks like those strange characters are causing the problem (notice the ????? are some drawings on text).

My goal is to open a .txt file and replace words in it then overwrite it. My goal is half way done. It couts it perfectly, but I am having a hard time overwriting the whole text file exactly how it couts it. I want the text to be exactly how it is displayed. In this example, I want to replace "ABC" with "DEF".
Text file "A.txt":
1 2 ABC 4 5
6 ABC 8
#include<iostream>
#include<string>
#include<fstream>
using namespace std;
int main() {
string Y;
fstream IN("A.txt", ios::in | ios::out);

I think it comes from having to align the data in the output file. How to start this is to use a function to read in all the characters using a while loop. Then read in all the digits in a separate function. When it comes to outputting the data in the correct format I'm lost, so for now if I could figure out the functions that would be awesome. A final note we have not gotten to using strings so the I'm trying to use getc, fgetc, and ungetc.
Write a program to compute average grades for a course. The course records are in a single file and are organized according to the following format: Each line contains a students first name, then one space, then the students last name, then one space, then some number of quiz scores that, if they exist, are separated by one space. Each student will have zero to ten scores, and each score is an integer not greater than 100. Your program will read data from this file and write its output to a second file. The data in the output file will be the same as the data in the input file except that there will be one additional number at the end of each line: the average of the students ten quiz scores.
The output file must be formatted such that first and last names appear together in a left justified column that is 20 characters wide. Each quiz score should be listed in a right justified column that is 4 characters wide, and the average should appear in its own right justified column that is 10 characters wide.
Note that if a student has fewer than 10 scores, the average is still the sum of the quiz scores divided by 10; these students are assumed to have missed one or more of the quizzes. The output file should contain a line (or lines) at the beginning of the file providing appropriate column headings. Use formatting statements to make the layout clean and easy to read.

I need to open a file that has multiple lines that look something like this, " black box 100.01 33.5 78.93". What this shows is the coordinates of the black box. Lines will have different objects with different coordinates. I need to create a loop that will read this file and tell me when a black box is found by displaying a message. I don't need to know how to create this file. I don't need to display the entire file but rather have it search for black boxes.

I need to read Unicode characters from a file. The only thing I need to do from them is to extract their Unicode number.
For example if file has u I need to extract its corresponding Unicode number.

So I am supposed to create a program that reads a file and replaces "<" with "<" , ">" with ">" , "&" with "&" , and " " " with """.........
The program takes a file "test.txt" and reads it, replaces the characters above with the corresponding strings, and then writes the output to "scrubbed.txt".
A sample input would be: <something>
and the output would be: <something>
for some reason I am getting garbage In my new file. What am I doing wrong with the code?
#include<stdlib.h>
#include<stdio.h>
#include<ctype.h>
#include<string.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv){
char *inFileName = NULL;
char *outFileName = NULL;
FILE *instream = fopen("test.txt", "r");
FILE *outstream = fopen("scrubbed.txt", "w");

string textWord;
int wordCount = 0;
while((*file) >> textWord)

wordCount++;
}
return wordCount;
}
for some reason, (*file) >> textWord will not read words into the string. What am I doing wrong?

I am writing a program that determines how many times a word is repeated in a file without a main function. I almost have it correct but it doesn't exit after it finds how many of the last word and it just loops.
Here is my coding
int count_the_word(string filename, string word) {
ifstream word_search;
int number_the = 0
int number_is = 0
int number_of_romeos = 0
int number_case = 0
string user_input;
[Code] ....
there is also two more lines from a different txt file i just havn't coded them yet.
the main function that is used to test it is as follows
cout << count_the_word("raj.txt", "the") << endl;
cout << count_the_word("raj.txt", "is") << endl;
cout << count_the_word("raj.txt", "Romeo") << endl;
cout << count_the_word("raj.txt", "case") << endl;
it works like its supposed to but like i earlier mentioned it outputs another number after it finds how many "case" are in the file and then it loops asking for a filename.

Been trying for a while now to complete a physics degree first year computing task I've been assigned, which is to create a wordsearch solver to read to an array a wordsearch from a .txt file and find words in all directions (x+,x-y+ etc.).
I have a feeling the program is almost complete, but will stop looking for the word once the first character of the word has already come up. For example, if I'm searching for computer, and a c exists in an array element before it, the program will stop searching. I have included my code and the wordsearch file beneath.
Code:
#include <stdio.h>#include <stdlib.h>
#include <math.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <ctype.h> //Used for the'toupper' functio
int main()
}

Basically I have a text file called words. I'm supposed to extract a word randomly form the file and have the user guess the word. If they guess the word correctly in x number of tries they will receive the definition.
I'm having trouble receiving that random word and I'm getting the definitions from the file.
Here's my code:
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>
using namespace std;
[Code] ....
This is what is in the words.txt file
apple#the usually round, red or yellow, edible fruit of a small tree
boat#a vessel for transport by water
horse#a solid-hoofed plant-eating domesticated mammal with a flowing mane and tail, used for riding
television#a system for transmitting visual images and sound that are reproduced on screens
soup#a liquid dish, typically made by boiling meat, fish, or vegetables, etc.
bottle#a container, typically made of glass or plastic and with a narrow neck
barber#a person who cuts hair
toast#sliced bread browned on both sides by exposure to radiant heat
radar#a system for detecting the presence, direction, distance, and speed of aircraft, ships, and other objects
red#of a color at the end of the spectrum next to orange and opposite violet

I am trying to generate possible combinations of 4 lower case letters from aaaa - zzzz. The words will then be used against a file that contains encrypted passwords that each relate to a 4 lower case word. I have successfully generated the words. Now all i need to do is put the created words (aaaa, aaab, etc...) to an array so I can use crypt((array[i+1]), buff) and print the encrypted 4 letters that come from the file. I am having a lot of trouble complete this though.
New problems that are occurring
The main problem is in the all function and main. I'm not wanting to print the aaaa, aaab, aaac, etc to the screen but I want to put it in an char array so that i can compare each individually to each line from the file using crypt. How to put all 456976 combinations into an array, compare it to each line of code, and print the solutions to the screen.
File:
$1$6gMKIopE$I.zkP2EvrXHDmApzYoV.B.

For my data-structures class, I am attempting to create a binary search tree template to be used to create an AVL tree. I've written a Generic_Tree template for the BST to inherit from, and before I jump into implementing the AVL tree I'm testing the BST member functions. Everything was compiling fine until I added the BST insert() function. Now, I'm getting the following error message from my linker:
undefined reference to 'BST<void>::insert(int, void*)'
Stemming from the call in main line 16.
my makefile compiles with:
g++ -Wall -g Generic_Tree.cpp BST.cpp barfing.cpp main.cpp
Generic_Tree:
template < typename NODE_DATA, unsigned MAX_KIDS >
class Tree {
protected:
struct NODE {
NODE_DATA* contents;
Tree* child[MAX_KIDS];
Tree* parent;
[Code] ....
I'm use to c and havn't used classes or templates before (except for declaring instances of them). The whole syntax is mystifying to me,.

inputting a search array. I tried putting a binary search but I can't get it to work. everything else works up until I put the value I am searching for in the array, then it just crashes.
How it suppose to work: input 2 coordinates with a value each then it calculates the distance between them then it suppose to let user search the coordinates for a value and state if found which coordinate it is at.
#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip> //for setprecision

I can not cope with the task.Create a function that will take a string of characters (including spaces) and print the numbers of characters (including commas, periods, etc.) in it. The output will be arranged alphabetically. Distinguish case sensitive!
