C++ :: Read From A File And Store Information In Separate Variables?
Dec 8, 2014
So I have to read from a file, and store the information in separate variables. My problem is that for some of the information I need multiple words, and for others I don't, so I cant simply store 1 word into a variable and store the next in another in so on. To demonstrate what I mean let me give an example.
Dog Cat Blue Bird Snake White Horse
I am able to store "Dog","Cat","Blue","Bird"...etc in variables but I don't know how to make it so I can store "Dog" in one variable, "Cat" in a second variable. and "Blue Bird" in a third variable. "Snake" would be the 4th and "White Horse" would be the fifth. How can I read a file and manipulate the pointer to grab what I need?

Im trying to read and store several students information so that i can have an options menu where i can enter a student number and the program prints all the information stored about that student. The way i have it set up now, doesn't work for this because all info is reinitialized to stud1. Is there another way to store this info other than defining stud1, stud2,.....,stud200?
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <math.h>
#include <string.h>
struct student_info {
char first[20];
char last[20];

how I can read information from a text file into an array so afterwards I can display the array and it will show the contents of the text file?
the information inside my text files consist of names and numbers like so: "Collins,Bills 80" should I separate the numbers and names into two separate text files one for names and one for numbers?
My code so far is this:
#include <iostream> //for cin and cout
#include <fstream> //for input/output files
#include <conio.h> //for getch
[Code]....

I can't get my code to compile, i need to read in lines from a file and store them in variables. Then i have to construct instances of my class for how many lines there are in the file and take those variables into them.
I'm getting this error :
"a2.cpp:40: error: cannot convert `Employee' to `Employee*' in assignment"
#include<iostream>
#include<string>
#include<fstream>
void displayInfo();
using namespace std;
class Employee{

So I have this text file that I am trying to read from and store the values of each line in multiple variables. Let's say my text file contains
AXSYZ3482 Tom 100 112 and my code below here works fine when the lines in the text file is separated by spaces.
Code:
while (fscanf(fp, "%s %s %d %d
", userID, name, &startLoc, &endLoc) != EOF) {
printf("%s %s %d %d
", userID, name, startLoc, endLoc);
}
But let's say my file was to look like this instead.
AXSYZ3482:Tom:100:112
But if i try this below...
Code:
while (fscanf(fp, "%s:%s:%d:%d
", userID, name, &startLoc, &endLoc) != EOF) {
printf("%s %s %d %d
", userID, name, startLoc, endLoc);
}
It seem to store the entire line in userID including the ":". I want to ignore the ":"'s and store everything in between in respective varibles in the order specified above.
So first string in userID, then ignore the :, then second string in name, and ignore the next :, and so forth.

I'm trying to open a file (contains member information) and store the information in an object, which is then inserted into a linked list. However, the current code just leaves a blank command window hanging with nothing happening.
main.cpp - [URL] ....
MemberProf.h - [URL] ....
MemberProf.cpp - [URL] ....
LinkedList.h -[URL] ....

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.

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"

Perhaps my original wording on this was confusing so I will ask a different way.
if I have a text file called
data.txt
and it has the following in it.
12345
67890
12345
67890
how would i read this information into an array called
int data[4][5]
This is in C.

For my intro to c programming class, our homework requires us to read a data file and emit various bits of information. the data file looks like this
#Domain: the URL
#Alexa: some kind ranking, small numbers are better
#Rank: another sort of ranking, big numbers are better
#Domain Alexa Rank Site Name
#------------ ----- ------- ---------
amazon.com 13 1177136 Amazon.com
google.com 1 4533883 Google
youtube.com 3 3637788 YouTube
[Code] ....
I've started and am able to get the correct number of lines, and the alexa number, but I keep getting some errors and am just unsure where to correct my code. This is what it looks like;
Code:
// Lexi Anderson
//CS 156
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
[Code] .....
and once compiled, I get errors.

How to use a function twice to calculate two different variables. How to have a function compute the city tax, then it uses the function a second time to compute the county tax.
My program compiles, and runs fine, however it only outputs the city tax calculation. It seems it never attempts to calculate the county tax.
One thing: All of the directives I used is what we are limited to, no more, no less. He requires a set format and will dock points of you use anything but those directives and void main().
Here is my code so far:
/* function for city tax calculation */
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
#include <string>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <cmath>
#include <iomanip>
const double city_tax_rate=0.03;
[Code] ....
I am using Visual studio 2010.

I want my program to read variables from file "input.txt":
Please choose the crystal lattice. Type 1 for BCC, 2 for FCC, and 3 for HCP: 2
Please enter lattice parameter (a): 1
For HCP please enter second lattice parameter (c): 1
Please enter the number of translated cells along X axis: 2
Please enter the number of translated cells along Y axis: 2
Please enter the number of translated cells along Z axis: 2
Moreover, I want program to read only the numbers after colon. How can I do it?
Code:
#include <iostream>#include <fstream> // to read from file
using namespace std;
int main () {
int latticeType;
int dimX, dimY, dimZ; // number of translated cells along each axis
float d; // lattice parameter

I am trying to fscanf a file and need to read the variable name 'f9' and 'a2' for example in the sample below and get their corresponding values '8' and '2' and then in my C program set the variables f9 and a2 accordingly (which I can declare as variables). Is this possible?
I making a Sudoku Solver and am thinking I would store the puzzle solution in a 2D array with a1=0, a2=1, etc... where 0, 1 are the array indices... then just print the array as the solution.
Note: The a1, a2, a3, etc... is my own numbering of the indices where the letter corresponds to the row and the number corresponds to the column (starting from 1) which I use when feeding to the solver.
I have a file that has the following format (output of Z3 SMT solver):
sat
(model
(define-fun f9 () Int
8)
(define-fun a2 () Int
2)
(define-fun c5 () Int
6)
)

I am trying to use an array to keep track of the numbers of channels created and how many times a particular channel has been copied. At the moment, the program sets a number for a new channel (1-20), but the user enters the channel name. The channel name is stored in 'ChannelName' variable and if the user copies the channel, it becomes ChannelName_Copy. I want to change the '_Copy' into an incremental identifier such as _C1, _C2, etc.. and to do this i would need to keep track of the channel name and the number of times it has been copied, which i planned to do using arrays but i am not quite sure how to approach this.

Trying to read/write from a file located only in the virtual store. Having trouble loading the file in using
outputFile.open("%localappdata%virtualstoreProgram Files (x86)AGC est.txt");
and
outputFile.open("%localappdata%virtualstoreProgram Files (x86)AGC est.txt");
Although I can get it to work using:
inputFile.open("C:UsersNewlanceAppDataLocalVirtualStoreProgram Files (x86)AGCsettingsV5.cfg");
But I need it to work on other machines IE: Not Newlance.

I am trying to transfer information of Variables. How to get this to work and everything I follow shows that this SHOULD work but some reason does NOT work... I
What I CAN get to work is if I put frm.show(); on one specific section that ONE section will show up... so I tried putting all of the variables at the end button to get them to show up with the one Frm.show and it still only does the very last one and the rest are just blank I dont really understand as to why.
Also if I put a FRM.show at each step it will just keep creating a new instance of form 2 each with a different line that is changed.
Form1 code
public Form1() {
InitializeComponent();
} public void Enter_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) {
Form2 frm = new Form2();
Employee FirstName = new Employee();
[Code] .....
Form2 Code
public partial class Form2 : Form {
public Form1 frm1;
public Form2() {

Directions: Write a program that uses the structure named MovieData to store the following information about a movie:
Title
Director
Year Released
Running Time
Include a constructor that allows all four of these member data values to be specified at the time MovieData variable is created. The program should create. The MovieData variable and pass each one in turn to a function that displays the information about the movie in a clearly formatted manner. Pass the MovieData Variables to the display by value.
Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
struct MovieData {
[Code] ....
I sort of hit a wall did it do something wrong because the whole create two MovieData variables is confusing me.

How would i write a functor for this code. The code is written to read data from a file and store in a multimap.
The data has numbered lines. E.g.:
1 This is a string
2 This is a string too
So the aim is to store each word in the line with the number and then to enter a word to search for the line numbers it appears on. I do not know how to go about and write a functor
#include<iostream>
#include<sstream>
#include<fstream>
#include<cstdlib>
#include<map>
using namespace std;
int main() {
multimap<int, string>myMap;

A company uses two text files: one to store employees' details and another to log their sign in/out time.
The details file - called details.txt" has the following format: ID, Name, Date of Birth, SSN, Department, Position - separated by spaces.
An extract from the file looks like this:
10 alice 4/23/1972 123-45-6789 support assistant

Create a structure to store information about products for sale in a store. It should store information about the product name, the price, and the product number and then create an array of products called Inventory. Add five products to your inventory.
But for some reason, which is unknown to me, I always seem to get a compiler error. And this is what i have so far -
