C++ :: Parse A Text File That Contains Information

Jul 31, 2014

I am trying to parse a text file that contains information and i cant seem to get started. For example, the text file looks like this:

idx=929392, pl= 12, name= someperson
age=19
state=ma
status=n/a

idx=929393, pl= 12, name= someperson2
age=20
state=ma
status=n/a

idx=929394, pl= 12, name= someperson3
age=21
state=ma
status=n/a

I want to parse the name and age into another text file like this format:

someperson 19
someperson 20
someperson 21

possibly include other attributes next to the age like idx?

C++ :: Parse Value From Text File?

May 16, 2014

Suppose i have a text file with ":" as delimiter, how to i find the average value of each column? For e.g. First column will be (3+2+5)/3 and second column will be (61+87)/2 for the third column.

Sample text file
================
3:290:61:100:
2:50:
5:346:87:

I have tried using getline in while loop, but it seemed more complicated because i think it requires much more than that.

C++ :: Parse And Edit A Text File?

Nov 14, 2014

I have this project for school where I basically need to write a program that will take any text file and convert it into html code.

string line;
int lineCount = 0;
while (!inFile.eof()) {
getline(inFile, line);
cout << line << endl;
lineCount++;
}
cout << lineCount - 1 << " lines of text read in this file." << endl;

I have this block of code to print each line of the text file into the terminal window and count the number of lines printed. But I don't know how to make it change a single character or set of characters to something else. For example, if a line of text begins with the number "1", I want to be able to change it to "<h1>".

C++ :: Using Getline To Parse From A Text File?

Nov 23, 2014

I'm trying to make a program where it reads a text file which contains "blocks" of questions like:

Type: multiple_choice
Question
Num_options: number of options
a) option1
b) option2
c) option3
d) option4
Letter of answer

and

Type: short_answer
Question
Answer text

what I'm trying to do is use parse those blocks and have it get handled by the classes, MultipleChoice and ShortAnswer.

I'm planning on using getline as a virtual function and have an if statement like
"if (string == "multiple choice)
** then get it handled by the MultipleChoice class "

how would i read this information into an array called

C :: Take Personality Information From User And Store It In Text File

May 17, 2014

I was trying to make a program in C that could take Personality Information from the user and store it in a text file. Then, when asked, could compare the results to other entries in the so called "data-base" and tell which is the best match. I tried a whole lot but couldn't think of a proper way.

(Stings and File IO are not my strong points)

I am using Code Blocks 10.05 and the standard GCC compiler.

You will come here in 15min.
He stayed here for 20min.

from the above sentances, I want to seperate " I have to go to school for " and "10" and put them into two different variables and also 10 should be in integer format.

C/C++ :: How To Parse Contents Of File To Remove Comments

Mar 12, 2015

I am working on a program where I am reading in a text file to be parsed to load data objects into their appropriate classes. I have a class to load in this file and to parse its contents. I am at the point where I would like to include the ability to have both C and C++ style comments in this text file. My current class has a constructor that takes in const std::string for its file name. Upon construction I have a while loop that calls a member function getNextLine() as long as this is true this loader class object then calls parseGui(). All of this works correctly so far. Within the function getNextLine() looks like this:

// ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// getNextLine()
// Returns True If It Got A Line Of Text (Could Be Blank If It Is All Commented Out Or
// If It Truly Was A Blank Line). False Is Returned When There Is No More Data In The File
bool GuiLoader::getNextLine() {
if ( !_file.readLine( _strLine ) ) {
return false;

[Code] ....

As you can see this getNextLine() method reads in a single line of text and saves it into its member variable which is a std::string. It increments the line number, then a utility function trims out leading and ending white spaces. The next part is where this class calls a member function to remove comments. It is in here where I need to parse the string to look for comments either "//" C++ style line comments or "/* ... */" C style block comments that can span multiple lines. I have tried many different ways to go about doing this, and I am stuck on the C style comments. A note to consider is this: the way this code is designed is reading in a line of text from the file into a string variable and in doing so it is not logical for me to read in the complete file and do a pre-parse scan or analyzer.

This is what I have so far, however there are still cases that this code will fail on

// ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// removeComments()
void GuiLoader::removeComments() {
const unsigned tokenLength = 1;
static std::string::size_type indexA;
static std::string::size_type indexB;
const std::string commentStartingToken( "/" );
const std::string blockCommentStartingQualifier( "*" );

[Code] .....

An example of where this code will fail is when it encounters a single '/' any where on a line of text as it goes into an infinite loop. I am not sure on how to go about skipping this lonely '/' and advanced the index to look for a possible next '/' that belongs to a '//' or a '/*'. I know that this is sort of trivial, but for some reason or another I am having writers block.

C# :: Using Split Method To Parse Line In CSV File

Jun 6, 2014

I'm using the Split method to parse line in a csv file. The following code works if there are no commas in the text of my data.

string csvLine;
string[] splitLine;
csvLine = "Jim Borland,1234,Never dreams in code";
splitLine = csvLine.Split(',');

But if I have commas in the some of the text as below I get then wrong output. So I need split on a commas which are not enclosed in double quotes.

string csvLine;
string[] splitLine;
csvLine = ""Jim,C,Borland",1234,"Never dreams in code"";
splitLine = csvLine.Split(',');

The output I want is:

Jim,C,Borland
1234
Never dreams in code

I found this :

If your strings are all well-formed it is possible with the following regular expression:

String[] res = str.split(",(?=([^"]|"[^"]*")*$)");

The expression ensures that a split occurs only at commas which are followed by an even (or zero) number of quotes ... and thus not inside such quotes).

Nevertheless, it may be easier to use a simple non-regex parser.

But the .split gives me an error and .Split doesn't work either.

C++ :: Parse TXT File - How To Get X And Y Coordinates Of Each Control Points From 2 Images

Jan 30, 2013

I have a text file with the following format

//MAIN OBJECT

C :: Using Strtok In Conjunction With Fgets Function To Parse File Data

Feb 17, 2013

In the assignment we are forbidden to use fscanf(). I have been trying to get this to work, but I've started to realize that I do not have a complete understanding of what strtok() actually does. I'm getting this warning when debugging: "assignment makes integer from pointer without cast."

This warning happens when assigning str to goal and assist, and I think it is because they are, when dereferenced, integers. The code below correctly assigns the name into the correct spot, but leaves nonsense data in the goal and assist arrays.

ex:-7880, -7888 file example: NAME GOALS ASSISTS JOHN 1 2

Code:
void readLinesFromFile( FILE* Ptr, int* goal, int* assist, char** name, int lines ){/*
* Reads lines from files and populates the arrays with the corresponding info.
*/
int index;
char hold[ MAX_LINE ] = { 0 };
char* str = NULL;

[Code] .....

From what I understand about strtok(), it returns a string, and takes in a character array and a key value that tells it when to stop. In the online examples I've seen, they use NULL in the first field. I'm not sure why.

C :: Reading From File Certain Information

Jul 31, 2013

//---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
//FUNCTION: vDelEditStudents()
//---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

void vDelEditStudents() {
FILE *file = fopen("C:UserForCtxtgiro.txt", "rb");
Student StdStruct;
fseek(file, -sizeof(StdStruct) , SEEK_END);
fread(&StdStruct, sizeof(StdStruct), 1, file);

[Code] ....

The problem is that ... Even though it is reading from a a file, it is not reading a one struct. In this piece of code I'm trying to read the last struct, which should be k... The struct itself is here

Code:

typedef struct {
char StudentName[30];
uint16 StdAge;
uint16 StdNumb;

}Student;

And here is my input and output:

INPUT:
4
1 g 1 2
1 h 3 4
1 j 5 6
1 k 7 8

C++ :: Reading Information Out Of File?

Apr 12, 2014

I need to read some infos out of a .txt-file.

The problem is that i dont know how to do because 'getline' won't work i think.

the file looks like this:

*******************
Inventory of MyInventory
*******************
Some info
More info
-------------------
000 Toys 6.25
a short description
126/44 Cards 2.25
some text
*******************
Inventory of MyInventory2
*******************
Some info
More info
-------------------
000 Toys 6.25
a short description
126/44 Cards 2.25
some text

So what I need to know:

- the name of the Inventory (MyInventory, MyInventory2...)

- the numbers in each row (000,126/44...)

- the name what it is (Toys,Cards...)

- the price (6.25,2.25...)

- and the description(problem here is, that there are not the same amount of words for each description)

I tried it with 'getline' but this is not working because the lines are so different each time.

C :: Add More Student Information To The Specific Txt File?

Mar 12, 2013

I'm trying to add more student information to the specific txt file. I did struct my student information and separated it with an array with max size of 200.

The inside of my current file looks like

Toshi
Aka
Nonal
Donald

The first one represent student[0] and next one is student[1] and so on till student[199]. Right now, only 4 space is occupied, which means the array has information till student[3] but not from student[4] (I guess it has null condition).

What I want to do is, I want to add a new student information to student[4] and till student[199] once at each time.

So, my prompt will look like
Would like to add a new student? Y/N
(if yes goes to below statement and exit if NO)
Hi. Please enter the information of new student. ___________
Student added. Please press any key to continue.

If the key is pressed, it goes back to my initial prompt and continues till I press N.

I sure I'm not using for loop to do this thing, because I'm adding student name one by one.

However, the array is already occupied by other student name till student[3] so, I want to add a new student information to student[4] (I don't want to overwrite the current information). And if student[4] is occupied, then [5] and so on.
