Visual C++ :: Find Specific String Of Lines In A Text File
Oct 15, 2013
I am trying to print a specific line from a textfile
e.g
I have a text file called info.txt and inside it contains the id,item name, price, quantity
Code:
1,shirt,100,10
2,pants,50,9
3,pen,20,8
I know how to find a specific word at the line in the file but how do I find and print out the specific line e.g(print out just the entire contents of line 2)?
Code:
string temDescription;
ofstream fout;
int curLine = 0;
[Code].....

I have a text file called (Test.txt) with the following text:
This is line one
This is line two
This is line three
How do I go about writing a program that will print a line of text (e.g. "This in line two" on the console screen?
All I can seem to do is display the entire text file.

Program background: Ticket Sales Details You will sell tickets in advance and at the door. Prices for buying in advance and at the door will be given. Also, the total number of tickets sold in advance will be given. Each guest will have a unique number. If there are n tickets sold in advance, then these guests will be numbered 0 through n-1. As the event starts, requests to buy tickets at the door may be made and these guests will be numbered sequentially, starting at the lowest unassigned number. The maximum number of guests will be 1000. The first line of the file contains the following three values, separated by spaces: Cost of the presales tickets (in dollars), Cost of the tickets at the door (in dollars), and the number of presale tickets. The first two values will be positive real numbers to two decimal places and the last will be a positive integer.
The second line of the file will contain one positive integer representing the number of auction items followed by a positive real value to two decimal places (at most) representing the minimum bid increment, in dollars. The first value is guaranteed to be 1000 or less and the second will be in between 1 and 50, inclusive.
The third line of the file will contain all the prices of the auction items, in dollars, separated by spaces, in order. Thus, the first price is the price of item 0, the next price is the price of item 1, and so on. These values will be real numbers represented to up to 2 decimal places.
The fourth line of the file will contain the three following positive integers pertaining to the raffle: the number of raffle tickets available, the cost of a raffle ticket in dollars, and the number of raffle prizes. (It's strange to have raffle tickets that don't cost a whole number of dollars.)
The fifth line of the file will contain each of the values of the raffle items, in dollars, separated by spaces, in order. Thus, the first price is the price if item 0, the next price is the price of item 1, and so on. These values will be real numbers with upto 2 decimal places.
The sixth line of the file will contain ten positive integers representing the number of each of the drinks 0 through 9, in order, that are in stock.
The seventh line of the file will contain ten positive real numbers with upto 2 decimal places representing the price of each of the drinks 0 through 9, in order.
The eighth line of the file will contain a single positive integer, numEvents, representing the number of events that occur at the charity ball. These events are split into two groups: actions by guests at the ball and awards given (raffle, auction, person, totalrevenue). All of the actions precede all of the awards. You will produce exactly one line of output for each event described. Here are the formats of each event that could occur:
If a patron buys a ticket at the door, a command will be on a line by itself:
BUY TICKET k
where k is a positive integer indicating the number of tickets bought at the door. These guests will be numbered as previously mentioned. You are guaranteed that the total number of tickets bought, including presales, will not exceed 1000. This is what I have so far and I cannot figure out why it wont calculate the total revenue. I am not completely sure if it is even accessing the if statement in main.
Code:
#include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#define N 1000

I am trying to read lines from a .txt file like this:
// "file.txt"
This is the first line.
This is the second line.
To do this, I tried using the following code:
int main() {
std::ifstream data;
data.open("file.txt");
[Code] ....
The output I want is:
This is the first line.
This is the second line.
However, all I am getting is:
This is the first line.
I can't quite see why this isn't working. I am decently familiar with file streams in C++, so I thought I would know what I was doing, but apparently not.

FILE *f1,*f2;
char oneword[100],filename[25];
int c;
long int i,j;
char *norstring[500000]; /* I count from 1 */

I have a text file with repeated lines, and i would like to get rid of the duplicate information, an algorithm to achieve this?
Example of my text file (the actual file may be huge, up to 500MB):
+Hello
+Bye
*The sun
-The moon
+Bye
/One coin
+Bye
+Bye
+Hello
*The sun
And i would expect to get something like this:
+Hello
+Bye
*The sun
-The moon
/One coin
I know how to open and read a file with fstream and getline(), but i don't know how to make the comparison.

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 made a program which read a text file and copies text in an another text file if line doesn't contain a specific string(code is below), how can I make it after it finds out a line which contains this string to skip n lines ? I tried to use a for loop but without any luck..
Here is what I did until now :
rfile.open("test.txt");
wfile.open("out.txt");
while(std::getline(rfile,line)){
n=line.find(name);
if(n == std::string::npos){
wfile<<line<<std::endl;
}
//Here is the "problem"

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 creating a program to read information about class schedules at my school, reformat the information, and allow the user to search for specific semesters. There are eight fields of information. I'm reading the info from a text file using eight parallel arrays, but I'm having trouble declaring the arrays. I can run this code in one compiler (Dev-C++) with no problems, but I get errors when trying to compile it using Visual Studio stating that arrays must be declared with a constant value. I have a loop to run through the text file, with a counter to increment with each subsequent line, then I create a constant int equal to the counter, and declare the arrays of size equal to the constant int. Here's the section of code in question:
// Counting the number of lines in the text file
inFileForLines.open("CIS225HW1DA.txt");
string countLine;
int numberOfLines = 0;
//Discarding the first line of the text file containing only column headings
getline(inFileForLines, countLine);

What I have to do is write a small program in C++ to parse the symbols that are used on 5 different lines of text in each position until position 30 is reached on each line. The goal of the parsing program is to interpret the symbols (characters), if there are any per each position, on the 5 lines of text in order to output the actual data that the group of symbols represents.
My question for is this: Is there anything special from a C++ environment that should go in to something like this outside of using standard stuff like the math associated with the search algorithm that has to happen here? The symbols are located in a file, so I know I have to include "iostream" and a few other headers. But outside of header inclusions and the code necessary to iterate and streamline the search and interpretation process, am I missing anything special that I couldn't otherwise find through simple google searches?

I have a file that contain different content, some lines inside that file looks like that :
Time : xx:xx:xx
Time : xx:xx:xx
So, I want to grab lines that start with "Time : " and put them inside a list<string> for later use. I am using windows so I don't know if the newline character is '
' or '
' also I don't want my grabed line contain any special character.
I have this code, but didn't work well because some special characters remain inside the string.
Code:
string buf;
list<string> ls;
ifstream read("test.txt", ios_base::binary);
while(!read.eof())
{
getline(read,buf,'

I have problem with finding the maximum value in a column. This is my code
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main() {
FILE *fp;
fp = fopen ("C:
ocket1.txt", "r");
float time, altitude, velocity, acceleration, amax, bmax;
[Code] ....
The first loop will print out all of numbers in the velocity column. The second while loop is looking for the maximum value in that column. It is supposed to print out the max velocity in the end of the second loop. However, when I build and run the program, it's crashed. I run debugger and received "Segmentation fault" error. When I eliminate the second loop, it run just fine I use Code::Block for text editor.

I have a program that gives the user the option to create an employee ID, name, address and so on. It also has the option to search employee by employee ID.
What I want to know is how to add and replace employee info. For example employee changes address. Also how to delete employee information from text file.
Here's my code:
//This program uses file input and output for an employee information system.
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;
int main(){
ifstream inFile; //declare ifstream as inFile and ofstream as outFile
ofstream outFile;
