Visual C++ :: Error When Trying To Read A Random Word From A File

May 8, 2015

I am currently writing a password generator in Microsoft Visual Studios 2010 Professional. The section I am having a problem with is the practical password. It is suppose to randomly read 3 words from a text file and then display it in the text box. The program will compile and run but when I hit generate I get "True True True" and not three random words. Then this warning shows up:

Warning C4800: 'char *' : forcing value to bool 'true' or 'false' (performance warning)

//Code is from the form1.h file. I can post the rest of the code if need be but I just included my includes and the problematic section

Code:
#pragma once
#include <cstdlib>
#include <ctime>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <cmath>
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>

[Code] ....

Screenshot of the warnings: [URL] .....

Picture of the output: [URL] ....

C++ :: How To Read A Specific Word From A File

Aug 12, 2014

How would one go about doing this? I am very fond with Windows I/O, but not so much with this subject. I am decent with fstream, probably not as skilled at it as I should be, but I assume <fstream> would be a better choice, since it isn't locked to Windows.

Anyway, say I have a .txt file like this:

Bill is a cow.
Bill likes meat.
Bob is a pig.
Bob and Bill are friends.

And I want to count the number of times "Bill" is written. How would I do that?

C++ :: For Loop In Hangman Game - Read A Word From Text File Randomly And Matches It With Definition

Jun 26, 2014

Ok here I have a program that reads a word from a text file randomly and matches it with the definition. The user has to guess what the word is according to the definition.

I'm having trouble with my for loop, I'm not getting any errors. But I just know something is off.

#include <string>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <ctime>

using namespace std;
int main(){
int number;
int count = 0;
int numOfGuess = 0;

[Code] ...

This is words.txt:

boat#a vessel for transport by water
horse#a solid-hoofed plant-eating domesticated mammal with a flowing mane and tail, used for riding
television#a system for transmitting visual images and sound that are reproduced on screens
soup#a liquid dish, typically made by boiling meat, fish, or vegetables, etc.

Visual C++ :: Counting A Word From Text File

Nov 24, 2012

The user will first enter the file name to be processed. The program can do the following 5 tasks:

1. Count the number of words
2. Count the number of alphabets (without punctuation marks)
3. Count number of sentences.
4. Count the frequency of each vowel.
5. Count frequency of the following three words individually: FAST, computer and engineering

There should be a proper menu through which the user can select the desired task. The program should continue until the user asks to terminate it.

Here is what i have done so far:

#include <iostream>
#include <cstring>
#include <fstream>
#include <cstdlib>
using namespace std;
int main(void)
{
int opt=0; //option number
ifstream fin;
string filename;

[Code]...

There are a few problems.

1- When I enter option 'q', an infinite loop starts.
2- The first time, the program gives the correct value. After that, each time it gives answer ZERO.
3- The last part is not working. I experimented something which failed. I don't know how to do the last part.

C :: Error While Using Struct In Code To Read From File

Jan 31, 2014

I am trying to use struct to store variables from a text file and use them in the main program. I have first tried running the program without using struct and declaring the variables within the main program and it runs fine. But after using struct, it gives no compilation error and a segmentation fault as output. Also, if the size of file/variable size is unknown can I declare variables as char string[]??

The code is as below:

Code:

#include<stdio.h>
struct test {
char string1[10000];

C/C++ :: Read From Dat File And Produce Output On Screen - Error C2664

Feb 5, 2014

My professor wants me to write a program that will read from a dat file, and produce an output on the screen based on the file. I don't understand why I am getting this error. I suspect it has something to do with the number of characters I've told it to read.

#include<iostream>
#include<iomanip>
#include<fstream>
#include<assert.h>
#include<string>
using namespace std;
using namespace System;
struct TStudent {

I am currently using Flash. Here are two images I will be referring through without this post:

1: [URL] ....

2: [URL] ....

So basically, when I click the generate buttonon the first image it takes you to the second image. What I want is when I click the generate button it comes to this screen, aswell as choose a random word from each list that I will make (Who List, What List, When List, Where List, and Why List) and place the word next to its position. When you click New Idea I want it to also generate another set of random words from the lists. How can I do this?

C++ :: Read Word Then Add To List

Jun 4, 2013

So I'm trying to complete this part of a program where I have to read a text file from Stdin and add it to the 'word list' wl. I get how to read from a text file but I don't know how to go about adding 'words' to a list, if that makes sense. So here's what I got:

string getWord(){
string word;
while (cin >> word){
getline(cin, word);
} return word;

[Code] .....

Source is an array that determines how many words are read from the text and length is the amount printed on screen. Here's the program I'm writing the implementation for:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <vector>
#include "ngrams.h"

[Code] ....

I'm supposed to use this as a reference.

C++ :: Using Istringstream To Read Each Word Of Each Element In Vector

Mar 6, 2014

Consider I have a vector of strings and then I use an istringstream to read each word of each element in the vector, why do I nescessarily use an istringstream?

This is the code that does what I just described (I think)..

Code:
for(auto &elem : svec) {
istringstream strm(elem);
while (strm >> word)
//Magic
}

What would be the equivalent of using something else than an istringstream in this scenario and how does the istringstream work?

Read in n, then n lastnames, and check to see if the first in the list is ever repeated again.Here's what I have so far:

#include <stdlib.h>
int strcmp(char *w1, char *w2);
int main() {
int j, n;
char string1[30], string2[30];

Current output:
