I have to write a program (on linux) which will count character, words and lines like wc linux command. I'm trying to write this for last 3 days... First part of app I did and it works fine - command line options to choose. Then I've got a function read_file which I have to use to read a file. One of the options is to get the file name from user and if user will not type any name then the standard file is ubuntu dict file /usr/share/dict/words, this is not working as well...
Counting characters and lines is working fine but because I don't know how to get text from read_file wrote code to read file interior this functions. Words counting is working partly - everything is fine until there are two or more spaces, tabs one after another then counts extra words. Finally I need child processes in words and lines counting functions. Parent process should waits for all childs to finish and should be pipes to submit character counts back to parent process. How to do all this things with processes...
Code:
#include <getopt.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <ctype.h>
#include <errno.h>
/*size of character buffer to read in a file. */
#define BUFFSIZE 1000000

I am trying to read lines from a CSV file and put the values into vectors. The CSV contains a large amount of data and I would like the program to only read certain lines from the CSV into the vectors. An example of the data is below. In my code the user inputs a secid. I would then like the code to only read lines from the csv where the secid matches what the user inputs. The secid's are also not in order so I can't just use a while loop.
My current code is below the data.

My task is to write a function for borrowing books form library called borrow(name,surname, student_id, book_id), which will connect information of borrowed book's ID and student's information in the file.
File looks like this:
John Jackson 45 0
Michael Gregory 34 56
Ann Cawitch 23 0
Chris Lamb 34 50
...
First two words are name and surname of students. First number represents student's ID and second one represents ID of book. If ID of book is 0, it means that student hasn't borrowed book yet, so he can borrow some book. If ID of book is not 0, it means that student can't borrow a book until he returns the old one. So, when student borrows book, ID of book in file should change from zero to some number
This is my code:
void borrow(string name, string surname, int student_id,int book_id ) {
string a;
string b;
int c=0;
int d;
fstream f2;
f2.open("students.txt", ios::out |ios::in);
[Code] ....
Whenever I call function (for example borrow(John, Jackson,45,15)), I get answer "Student isn't sign up library."
Am I on a right path? How to make this code to work?

I have to txt files, and want them to read into an array line by line and after then a split the lines with delimeters, at the first file I use ";", at the second file I want to split the lines to single words by spaces. My aim is to get the first word from the first file and compare with all the words from the other file, to check is there any matches.
My problem is, that at the first file works everything fine, and I want to do the with the second file, but after reading the lines into lines_input[], I check the an empty = null line, I get segmentation fault.
You can see the code below:
Code:
#include <stdio.h>#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <strings.h>
#include <unistd.h>

private void open(object sender, EventArgs e) {
OpenFileDialog openDialog = new OpenFileDialog();
if (openDialog.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK) {
string[] lines = File.ReadAllLines(openDialog.FileName);
int k = 0;
while (k < lines.Length)
[Code] ....
So in this code, the user basically opens a text file from the dialog. Then the file gets read on all the lines and gets stored in an array. Now the reason I did this is because there are more fields of text boxes I have to fill in after I fill in the table (6x3). I'm getting an out of bounds error however.

This is a sample text file that is being used. As you can see all the lines from start up until (excluding "110") will be used in the table. Now I want to read the last lines in this text file and put it in another text box. How do I do that?

I have a .txt file that contains, together with a few characters, columns of values that I want to save in different files like is written in the program (file 1, file2, file3 - a with x, b with y, c with z). The pattern of the source text file is like this:
known_vector frame1 151 65 0 frame2 151.000763 64.538582 0.563737
known_vector frame1 152 65 0 frame2 152.000702 64.542488 0.560822
known_vector frame1 153 65 0 frame2 153.000671 64.546150 0.558089
Until now I could manage to split the files, but the output gives me only zeros. First the program count the number of lines of the read text file, then it should display the desired columns of double values in three other .txt files.I've got for the three .txt files columns like this:
0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000
0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000
0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000

I'm new with C language. I got task to do . Actually there are 2 points. Both should be done with reading text from file. write down all letters from text in reverse alphabetic order (each letter 1 time).write down all words in random order.
I'm stuck with first point. Below code gives me entire text, but i need unique characters only. Text file contains few sentences.
Code:
#include<stdio.h>
void main( ) {

How to read some characters from file, I know we can move a pointer to some position using seekg() & seekp() function, get current position of the pointer through tellg() & tellp() functions. By moving the pointer to appropriate position using seekg(), we can read the whole line using getline() function. But is there any function which read certain characters from the current position of the pointer and write certain characters from current position of the pointer.

I have program that is supposed to read in a story from an input file and separate the words and output the lines on which the word occurs. It needs to read in another input file that has a list of words (1 per line) to ignore. i.e. skip them when running through the story. This is what I have so far, I've changed multiple things trying to get it running....
#include<iostream>
#include<fstream>
#include<map>
#include<set>
#include<vector>
#include<string>
#include"split.h"

I am looking for a way to correctly count the lines between two specified characters/strings in a file. Here's the part I need work on:
getline( file, lines );
do {
if(lines.find("character")
{
++counter;
}
} while( !lines.find("story") );
I want the code to search for the first occurence of the word "character," and start counting the lines from that line until it hit the first occurrence of the word "story."
Right now, I am only getting a counter value of 1.

Simple program to convert files to XML files. However I am trying to narrow down why my code is not working. I am reading a line that looks like "2001 Joe Dirt Los Angeles", then the next few lines are followed by text and the the fifth line looks like "---End of Description---".
So here is the file
2001 Joe Dirt Los Angeles
Home is where you make it
Best movie ever(but not really)
But seriously
---End of Description---
Here is example code to test the process
string line;
while(dataFile >> line) {
getline(dataFile, line);
cout << line << endl;
}
My returning output is
[space]Joe Dirt Los Angeles
[space]Home is where you make it
[space]Best movie ever(but not really)
[space]But seriously
My test code is skipping the date on the first line but replacing it with a space. Then it is skipping my fifth line which reads "---End of Description---". Now if I take the code out of the while loop and hard code in five lines of output (x5 getline(dataFile,line); cout << line << endl;) then my code works as expected. I get all of the information. Date and the fifth line.
It looks like when I am testing for the EOF it is also taking in the numeric value at the beginning of the first line. However, that does not explain why it is dropping that fifth line.

I have a file that is like the following, with patterns of pipes in it:
Code:
||| || | |
| ||| | | |
|| || ||
I have to consider each row of pipe characters to be in blocks of 3 characters each (e.g. - positions 1-3, then 4-6, etc, etc...) but I have to capture all of the pipes, in sequence, like so:
positions 1-3 for lines 1-3, then positions 4-6 for lines 1-3, etc, etc...
How to get this done besides writing severely redundant control structures like loops, one after the other?

I'm doing an exercise that prints all input lines that are longer than 80 characters. I rather not use any libraries so I decided to write my own function that counts characters to use it in my main program. However when integrate things my function returns zero all the time.
Here is my full code:
/* Exercise 1-17 Write a program to print all input lines that are longer than 80 characters */
#include<stdio.h>
/* Declarations*/
#define MAX_STRING_LEN 1000
int count_characters(char S1[]);
int main() {
[Code] .....
So I was trying to debug my count_characters() function and this is the code if I was to run it seperately:
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
/* counts character of a string*/
main() {
int nc = 0;
int c;
for (nc = 0; (c = getchar()) != '
'; ++nc);
printf("Number of characters = %d
", nc);
}
which works...

This code works, but not fully This code reads com ports, when a string is available, I check to see if it contains some keywords defined in array If it does, i print out the string itself.
The problem i am having is that it seems to stop processing the data at some point but I do know that there are more strings to be read. So, it does keep reading more lines of data
using System;
using System.Text;
using System.Collections.Generic;

Write a program that reads a string of characters including punctuation and writes what was read but with the punctuation removed.
This is how i did it:
string x("#punctuation!?=");
cout << x << endl;
for(unsigned i = 0; i < x.size(); ++i) {
if(ispunct(x[i]))
x[i] = ' ';
cout << x << endl;
I am just not sure if thats how they want you to do it because it doesn't remove the punctuations it just replaces them with a space.

I'm writing a program that reads and counts all the printable characters (ASCII 32-126)found in a text file.
For example if the text file read: Why so serious?
The output to the screen would display(in order of ascii value however):
Character-----Total
W--------------1
h--------------1
y--------------1
s--------------3
o--------------2
etc...
However, I don't think it's reading any of the characters.
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <fstream>
#include <cmath>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main() {
int i, count[127];
