C++ :: Inputting Text From A File?

Mar 27, 2013

I have to write this program that is to store the name, address, id number, etc of a student. The data is supposed to be brought in through main and there will be multiple students. I'm not sure what commands I should use to bring it in.

EDIT: This will make more sense. In the .txt file the info will be written like

Name
Last name
Address
etc.

I need to input that and use that for the appropriate number of students.

C++ :: Inputting TXT File Into 2 Parallel Arrays Via Void Function

Nov 10, 2014

I have a .txt file that I need to input into two parallel arrays. The first array needs to be on dimension and the second needs to be two dimensions.

This is a sample from the .txt file:

Australia62.762.163.359.7
Austria052.853.154.6
Belgium30.430.327.525.3
Canada61.356.257.754.5
Chile026.425.431.1
CzechRepublic038.327.325.2
Denmark65.067.162.355.0
Estonia51.732.929.834.3
Finland55.242.942.143.3
France35.728.330.228.8
Germany56.447.242.646.6
Greece30.326.925.013.1
Hungary032.521.818.6
Iceland068.271.666.0

this is what I have for code so far:

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
#include <iomanip>

using namespace std;
const int SIZE = 40;
const int COLUMN = 5;
void getData(ifstream& inf, string n[], double tstData[][COLUMN], int count);

[Code] .....

when I compile and run the code and have it display it does not read the first item into the 1-d array, instead it appears to read the 4th number from the left into the 1-d array and then into the second spot in the 2-d array, then again in its proper place and finally it has this number repeating through the rest of the arrays:

-92559631349317830000000000000000000000000000000000000000000.00 followed by the number 59.7 from the .txt and the long number again.

C :: File Operations - Fwrite Padding Extra Data In File Compare To Data Provided As Input

Oct 28, 2014

I am trying to write my files to another subfolder . Below is my program.

Code:
cat th6.c
#include <pthread.h>
#include <stdio.h>

C :: Losing Contents Of A String Between File I/O Operations

Oct 24, 2013

Here's the code I'm writing:

Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
char* getTeamCode(char* team);

[Code]....

Why the placement of the code on line 21 above matters.

It grabs the correct string just fine. If I write a printf just below it, it prints the string it should correctly. However, if I do a printf of the string OSUteamCode below the fopen call on line 23, it prints blank.

So the first thing I did was move it below the fopen line. It worked, finding and outputting the first game in "game.csv" just fine, but not the other 11. Debugging with printf shows that the contents of OSUteamCode again disappear after the fopen call in the addLineCSV function.

I'm not understanding why that happens. The only thing I can figure is there's something going on with the file I/O commands that I just don't understand, but I can't find anything online that explains what that might be.

C++ :: Program To Complete Mathematical Operations Using Matrices

Jul 10, 2014

I've been assigned to build a program which completes mathematical operations using matrices. I have to use dynamically allocated 2d arrays, and can only use * to dereference and not []. I have this code so far, but the multiply_matrix function does not work with most values. I've looked at other similar posts, which have a similar algorithm to mine, but mine does not work for some reason.

C :: Program To Calculate Students Grades From Input File And Write To Output File

Aug 29, 2014

One of my class assignments is to create a program that receive a .txt file containing a students name and their grades as follows:

John K. 99, 87, 57, 89, 90, 95
Amanda B. Jones 100, 88, 76, 99, 86, 92
etc..

The number of students is unknown until run time. You have to take those grades and average them weighing the first (4) at 10% a piece and the last (2) at 30% each.

Then return an output file with the students name and their letter grade A,B,C,D,F based on their computed score. In addition, on screen it needs to display the average scores for each Q1, Q2, etc. as well as the minimum and maximum for each test on the screen. I am having a hard time in assigning the scores to a variable so that they can then be computed as an average and then used to determine a letter grade. I have begun to write the code and am a bit stuck..here's what I have so far:

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <math.h>

[Code]....

C/C++ :: Program To Compute Students Grades From File And Write Them To File?

Aug 31, 2014

We have to write a program that reads an input file containing data in the form:

Martha J, 80, 90, 90, 100, 89, 99, 85
Anna Smith, 65, 72, 77, 68, 62, 70, 65
Bill Gates, 60, 54, 89, 62, 65, 60, 50
...etc...

and then use that information to determine their letter grade and write that information to a .txt file. I have been able to successfully pass that information to a function to determine their letter grade and have been able to successfully compute their letter grade. However, I can get this information to successfully post within the *computeGrade () function. Yet, I don't know how to pass this information back to the main() on a student by student basis so that I can open a new .txt file and write just their name and letter grade to it.

Another issue I'm having is when it comes to computing the averages of the class. Each score is either a quiz (there are 4), a midterm (there are 2) or a final (there is 1). I'm a little stuck on how to pass say all of the quiz 1 grades as one entity to the function averagesminmax(). Is there a way to compile each of the grades for a specific quiz or midterm as one array and pass that to the function to then do the computation. Also we need the min and max so again from compiling the grades of a particular quiz or exam together as one.

Here's the code that I have so far.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <math.h>
const char *computeGrade();
int averagesminmax();
int main() {
char fName[20];
char lName[20];

[code]....

Do I need to re-read the input file and assign them to different variables?

Here's a sample of the output so far:

Enter input .txt file name
Graded
Thui Bhu, 91, A
Ariana B. Smith, 96, A
Emily Gonzales, 83, B
Jennifer L, 89, B
Maria Jones, 67, D
Bill Gates, 55, F
Escobar Morris, 78, C
Anne Latner, 88, B
Program ended with exit code: 0

Also in my output file, the only thing that it prints will be the first name of whatever the last student in the input file list is.

C++ :: File Writing - Input Your Login Info And Program Writes That Info To A Text File

Jan 30, 2013

I'm trying to make a program that you input your login info and it writes that info to a text file. Then, later on once I get my problem fixed, the program will read the info to the user. my code is as follows(the input part is a bit lengthy):

// Password Log
#include <iostream.h>
#include <fstream.h>
#include <string>
#include <time.h>
using namespace std;
ofstream login;

C++ ::  how To Combine A Function Call And Inputting A Value

Mar 15, 2014

We're working on classes in my programming class, and I have a question about function calls.

Bascially, I have all my set and get functions set up and ready to go.

I was wondering if it was possible to have the user input a variable while calling a function.

for example

cin >> getname();

the user inputs a value that gets passed into getname.

Or does it have to be something like

cin >> name;
getname(name);

mind you all, this isn't code from my program i'm just spitballing here.

C/C++ :: Inputting True For A Boolean Variable?

My assignment : "Input the answer as the words true or false and put the user's answer in a boolean alphabetic variable."

My code:

bool T;
cout << "Type 'true' for lowercase or 'false' for uppercase";
cin >> T;
if (T == "true") {
cout << "Enter a whole number in decimal base: ";
cin >> dec;
cout.setf(ios::showbase);
cout << "Decimal " << dec << " to Hexadecimal with lowercase: " << setbase(16) << dec;
}

I'm not sure how to get 'true' as user-input as true for bool.

C/C++ :: Inputting Data Into Two-dimensional Array

Apr 19, 2014

So I have a two-dimensional array named temperatures[7][2] and I am trying to promt the user to input the highest temperatures for a 7 day period in the first column and the lowest temperatures in the second column. So far all I am getting when I test my code is the temperatures in the second column.

/*Intermediate23.cpp - This program inputs the highest and lowest temps. for seven days. It then displays the average high and low temps. and also diplays the highest temp. that's stored in the first column of the array and displays the lowest temp. stored in the second column of the array.*/

#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;
int main() {
//Declare array and variable
int temperatures[7][2] = {0};
int avg = 0;
int totalTemp = 0;

Visual C++ :: CFileDialog Saves File In Project File - Not Specified File

Apr 12, 2013

I'm very new to MFC & VisualC++. I'm using MSVS2010 Pro. I am trying to write/debug a simple form that saves and restores the content of some edit controls. It seems to work as expected, except the file saves only to the Project Folder, regardless of where I browse and select to save the file.

Code:
void CMFC_FileDialogDlg::OnBnClickedbtnsave() {
this->UpdateData();
CFile f;
//Kinda Correct, Works but still saves in Project Folder
BOOL b_OpenFileDialog = FALSE;//this doesn't act as bool in CFileDialog?

[Code] ....

My only experience is a little simple VB programming in Excel, so any specific examples??? Also, rules seem to change from version to version? I have to "update" a number of undocumented programs.

C/C++ :: Program Which Removes Notes From Program File

Mar 10, 2014

so my homework assignment is to make a program of which removes any notes in a program file.

for example, you run my program it will ask for a filename, when entered it opens the file, copies everything in it and removes any double forward slashes (//) and anything after that up to the new line character ( ) and anything between /* and */ including the /* and */.

i created the entire program and it removed the // and anything after that up to the new line character but will not remove anything after the first / when it finds a /*. This includes the */ at the end of the comment.

the section of code that removes the comments is

//this loop removes all notes
for(i=0;i<buf.st_size;i++) {
if((filecontent[i]=='/')&&(filecontent[i+1]=='/'))//removes notes using //
{
for(i=i;filecontent[i]!='
';i++)
filecontent[i]=' ';}

[Code]....

i know that the section that removes the multi line comments would not remove the final */ at the end if it did work, i was planning to fix that later once it removed the comment.

C :: Inputting Data From Multiple Lines Using Scanf?

Aug 1, 2013

How would I go about inputting data from multiple lines using scanf?

So far I have tried a loop and somehow checking for '' but can't seem to figure it out..

E.g I want to be able to scanf the ints below line by line and print them( if that makes sense) .

5 15 20 30 5 6
5 6 8 20 34
5 6 7
5 2
2 6 7 2 1 6

This is what i've tried so far, but am really lost!

Code:

int input;
while(scanf("%d", &input)){
printf("%d",input);
if(input == '
'){
continue;}}

C++ :: Inputting Into Double-sized Vector Freezes?

Whenever the code reaches:

matrix[atoi(tmp[1].c_str())][atoi(tmp[2].c_str())] = strtod(tmp[3].c_str(), NULL);

The app just blocks. Could it be due to a lack of RAM (since its inside a massive loop and I'm currently using an old-ass pc with 1GB RAM) or is it bad programming? If I remove that line everything runs smoothly.

C :: How To Create A Program That Take AVI File

Jan 26, 2015

I want to create a program that would take an AVI file, alter each frame (ex: change contrast, invert colors, etc.) and dump a new AVI. I've wrote a simple program for this experiment that loads up the header information from the video and dumps it. It also dumps a list of the frame data chunks within the 'movi' chunk.

The info I've gathered from coding this:

1. The recommended buffer size for each type of stream (vids, auds, etc.) is the size of the largest frame of corresponding type, plus 1 or two extra bytes.

2. numFrames in main header is the total number of frames for all types of data (video,audio,etc.) The 'length' value within stream header of type 'vids' is the number of video frames. The sizeImage value within BITMAPINFOHEADER is 921600 (==640*480*3) and the specification states that, quoth, "This can be set to 0 for uncompressed RGB bitmaps."

3. This video uses DIVX encoding.

Now my problem is this: How do I get the data within each video frame in a simple BMP like format? Even the uncompressed frames (with chunk id 'nndb') have variable sizes...let alone the compressed ones.

Information about a software that converts AVIs to a format with fixed sized uncompressed frames. Or at least some information about the frame decompression techniques.

Here's a dump made by the program for a 9 sec, 640x480 video I recorded from Pokemon. (Without the frame dump that is, it'd have made the post too long.)

Code:

AviMainHeader
-------------
size = 56
usecPerFrame = 66666
maxBytesPerSec = 7680000
padSize = 0
flags = 0x00000810
numFrames = 162
initialFrames = 0
numStreams = 2
