C++ :: String Array Sorting Into Alphabetical Order
Apr 14, 2014
I am trying to read information in from a file, each line of which contains a name in the form 'last, first middle'. I can successfully open the file and read it into an array that is roughly 2500 string in size. The problem comes when I try to sort the array into alphabetical order. I am using a sorting algorithm that we were instructed to use, found in our book. It is shown in the code. I would add the file that needs to be opened, but it is a few thousand lines long.
The error I am getting is:
Unhandled exception at 0x00A28628 in PeopleSearch.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x00CC400C.
and I know it has to do with the sorting algorithm from using break points and running the program with that section commented out. I am stumped to why it is giving this error, as it seems that it is trying to access the array outside of the bounds of the array, but it shouldn't be
So I been working on this c++ project and I need to be able to take three seperate strings and send them to function to put them in alphabetical order through a-z and use the swap function to return them in order. I been searching for problems like this but I haven't fame across any. I can copy my code onto here as well as a more detailed description of what I'm needing to do onto here if needed.
I need to find the Mean, median, mode, and make a histogram of a 99 value array. How ever my sorting function is not sorting the array at all how can I fix this.
I am writing a function called swap that sorts the elements of an array in order from highest to lowest values where they descend and ascend. A particular thing about this function is that swap does NOT re-arrange elements in the array so it just uses a second array of indexes for the elements in the original array and then swap sorts the second array based on the values in the original array. A sorted version of the original array can then be produced with these sorted indexes. You can declare and initialize the original array without any user input.
For example, int arr[10] = {1, 5, 22, 14, 6, -5, 7, 9, 12, 15 };
Header of the function swap must be as shown below: void swap(int array[],int swapedIndexes [], int size, char mode) When mode is 'a', the function sorts the array in the ascending order, and when mode is 'd', the function sorts it in the descending order. int swappedIndexes[5];swap(array,swappedInde… 5, 'a');
So far I have this code that randomly generates arrays of 10 elements and I found the max and min, but I am confused on what to do about the swapping part? Also, how to make the numbers ascend or descend in numerical order?? Here is what i have done so far:
#include<ctime> #include <iostream> using namespace std; int min(int [],int); void max(int [],int , int &); void main() { srand(time(0)); //1-declare
This compiles fine but when I run the .exe for the first time an error message comes up saying program has stopped working. If I run the program again without recompiling it seems to work as expected.
I'm trying to use a priority queue sorting in reverse order to take a vector or 2d array. The problem is that I want to sort by the vector/array cell value but keep the reference to the vector/array index of the value. I don't know quite howto keep them both related so when I pop. I can find the corresponding cell.
I'm trying to create a program that counts the amount of alphabetical characters, numbers, blanks and total amount of characters in a string a user gets to enter. The user also quits the program manually by pressing CTRL + D (in linux terminal).
These are the results I get from the code so far by typing in "hello cplusplus 123 c++" CTRL + D.
The string had: Alphabetical characters...: 0 Numbers...................: 0 Blanks....................: 3 Total amount of characters: 20
So I can't seem to find a way to count the amount of alphabetical characters and numeric characters.
Here's my code:
#include <iostream> #include <string> #include <iomanip> #include <cctype> #include <sstream> using namespace std; int main() { string tecken;
[Code] ....
The reason why I declared cctype is that I think I should use the isalpha, isdigit and isblank functions but how I am supposed to do that.
I have been reading up on arrays and string array. I created a string string text[0] and it is defined by user input. I am trying to sort the input. I want Michael to read Macehil.
When I wasn't using an array and just a string I did this:
return sort(text.begin(), text.end()); a
And it worked fine. Do I need to change my string into a char? If so, would I static cast that?
I have a code right here that i worked on with my teacher. I can say that he did most of the work. Basically i'm sorting elements in a dictionary order.
Code: #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <string.h> #define MAXWORD 50 // max word size void swap(char **p, char **q) // Q1: Why do I need a double pointer?
This program I am trying to write has a structure of persons with a first name last name and age for each.
What I need it to do it display the order of the persons before sorting and then display the persons after sorting by age.
So far I have written the overall program but am stuck at the most important step...which is defining the functions that will be doing all of the work.
For sort_by_age I want use bubble sorting by writing the function myself and for print_person_info I am confused on how to print data out of the struct.
Code:
#include <stdio.h> struct person { char first_name[20]; char last_name[20]; int age; }; void print_person_info(struct person clone); void sort_by_age(int n, struct person a[]);
What kind of code should i use for sorting numbers in both ascending and descending order? I don't know how to use bubble sorting either, is there another easy way to sort this out?
I have two vectors of float that I need to sort in reverse order. reverse() seems to work for one of them, but not the other. I have toggled between sort() and reverse(). for one vector, the expected behavior is seen and the order reverses. For the other, there is no change in order.
This is very simple code, so it's hard to imagine what is going wrong.
You can see that the order of the first vector did not change. Am I right in suspecting that the numbers are too similar for what ever method reverse() uses to determine the difference between values?
I have a vector which contains vectors containing 7 integers each. I'd like to sort these vectors based on the value of the first integer (int IOT), in ascending order. I know this type of question can be found everywhere, but I'm lost as to why this doesn't compile.
#include <fstream> #include <iostream> #include <vector> #include <string> #include <algorithm> #include <stdio.h> #include <math.h> #include <windows.h> using namespace std; class orders { public: int IOT; // Incoming Order Time
