I want to write a tool to change the word to another one, as I give! It matches that already some day and all the time there is a problem that my word is cut off or something is wrong. then I want a better program with the use of std :: regex but I can't cope with this problem anymore ..
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
void display_members()
{
std::string oldWord;
std::string newWord;
std::string tmp;
std::string getcontent;
std::ifstream openfile ("test", std::ios::in | std::ios::app);
std::cin >> oldWord;
std::cin >> newWord;
// if(openfile.is_open())
// {
while(! openfile.eof())
{
getline(openfile,tmp);
while((tmp.find(oldWord)) != std::string::npos)
{
tmp.replace(tmp.find(oldWord),newWord.length(),newWord);
}
std::cout << ","<<tmp << " " << " ";
// openfile >> getcontent;
// std::cout << getcontent<< " ";
}
// }
openfile.close();
}
int main()
{
display_members();
}

Try something more like this instead:
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
void display_members()
{
std::string oldWord, newWord, tmp;
std::string::size_type pos;
std::cin >> oldWord;
std::cin >> newWord;
std::ifstream openfile("test");
while (getline(openfile, tmp))
{
pos = 0;
while ((pos = tmp.find(oldWord, pos)) != std::string::npos)
{
tmp.replace(pos, oldWord.length(), newWord);
pos += newWord.length();
}
std::cout << "," << tmp << " " << " ";
}
}
int main()
{
display_members();
}

Inputting char and int in int variable using cin in C++ [duplicate]

This question already has an answer here:
How can I validate an integer input [duplicate]
(1 answer)
Closed 2 years ago.
I am writing a code to take an integer ID from the user which is later validated from a file.
Now when I don't enter a valid input in the cin it doesn't work (obviously). I have attached a sample code below like this:
std::cout << "Enter ID : " << std::endl;
std::cin >> id;
It's simple as that.
Now if I enter an input like a or any other character, I can check for any error using cin.fail()
But if I enter an input like 11a that doesn't seem to work. I have searched a lot on the internet but couldn't find any suitable solution.
Welcome to Stack firstly. Try this
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
int main() {
std::string theInput;
int inputAsInt;
std::getline(std::cin, theInput);
while(std::cin.fail() || std::cin.eof() || theInput.find_first_not_of("0123456789") != std::string::npos) {
std::cout << "Error" << std::endl;
if( theInput.find_first_not_of("0123456789") == std::string::npos) {
std::cin.clear();
std::cin.ignore(256,'\n');
}
std::getline(std::cin, theInput);
}
std::string::size_type st;
inputAsInt = std::stoi(theInput,&st);
std::cout << inputAsInt << std::endl;
return 0;
}
I made an output to visualize it. The variable "inputAsInt" would be the one you have to further work with.

Write a program that “bleeps” out words that you don’t like; that is, you read in words using cin and print them
again on cout. If a word is among a few you have defined, you write out BLEEP instead of that word. Start with
one “disliked word” such as
string disliked = “Broccoli”;
When that works, add a few more.
So i was thinking on how i could create a code that would do that with a set of words using a vector, but all i could come up with was
int main()
{
vector<string> disliked = { "damn","stupid","fat" };
string word = "";
while (cin >> word) {
bool bad = false;
for (string x : disliked) {
if (x == word)
bad = true;
}
if (bad)
cout << "Bleep\n";
else
cout << word << "\n";
}
return 0;
}
i feel like that code can be shortened with taking out one of the if statements but i can't find a working way to do it.
overall it seems like more code than it should be for this simple check, also could the for part be done better? doing a whole loop of the whole vector seems to be too resource intensive in a case where the vector has lets say a 1000 words, maybe separating it by an if statement checking for a-d, f-j... etc, and then only running a for loop would be less heavy?
Sort your vector and use std::binary_search:
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <algorithm>
int main()
{
std::vector<std::string> disliked = { "damn","stupid","fat" };
sort(std::begin(disliked), std::end(disliked));
std::string word = "";
while (std::cin >> word)
{
if ( binary_search(std::begin(disliked), std::end(disliked), word))
{
std::cout << "Bleep ";
}
else
{
std::cout << word;
}
}
}
or use std::set instead of vector:
#include <iostream>
#include <set>
#include <algorithm>
int main()
{
std::set<std::string> disliked = { "damn","stupid","fat" };
std::string word = "";
while (std::cin >> word)
{
if ( disliked.find(word) != std::end(disliked) )
{
std::cout << "Bleep ";
}
else
{
std::cout << word;
}
}
}
Both of these solutions have logarithmic complexity for the word lookup instead of linear.
Use the std::find operation on a vector.
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <algorithm>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
vector<string> disliked = { "damn","stupid","fat" };
string word = "";
while (cin >> word) {
if ( std::find(disliked.begin(), disliked.end(), word) != disliked.end() )
{
cout << "Bleep ";
}
else
{
cout << word;
}
}
return 0;
}

I currently have this code and all of the formatting is correct... I just can't seem to get it to create rows in the output text file... How would I do this? I've tried to do a for loop in the function and in the main() but it seems to not work if I do that so I am very confused right now.
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <fstream>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;
void output(string flightnumber, int arrival1, int arrival2, int realarrival1, int realarrival2, char dummy1, char dummy2)
{
ofstream flight;
flight.open("flightdata.dat");
if (flight.fail())
{
cout << "Error..." << endl;
exit(1);
}
cout << "Enter the flight number: ";
cin >> flightnumber;
if (flightnumber == "end")
{
exit(1);
}
flight << flightnumber << setw(4);
cout << "Enter the scheduled/actual arrival times (hh:mm hh:mm):";
cin >> arrival1 >> dummy1 >> arrival2 >> realarrival1 >> dummy2 >> realarrival2;
flight << arrival1 << dummy1 << arrival2 << setw(4) << realarrival1 << dummy2 << realarrival2;
flight << ('\n');
}
int main()
{
string flightnumber;
int arrival1, arrival2, realarrival1, realarrival2;
char dummy1, dummy2;
output(flightnumber, arrival1, arrival2, realarrival1, realarrival2, dummy1, dummy2);
return 0;
}
You are not appending your file whenever you write it truncates and creates a new file, add appending flag and open your file as.
flight.open("flightdata.dat", ios_base::app);
You are using uninitialized variables in main. They serve no purpose in there anyway. Remove variable declarations from main and put them in output:
void output()
{
string flightnumber;
int arrival1, arrival2, realarrival1, realarrival2;
char dummy1, dummy2;
ofstream flight;
flight.open("c:\\test\\___flightdata.txt", ios::app);
...
}
int main()
{
output();
return 0;
}
You may want to add ios::app flag as pointed out in the other answer.

I have
std::vector<string> x;
std::cout << "Please enter in values ";
std::getline(std::cin, numbers);
numbers.push_back(x)
Let's say the user inputted
3.9823 m/s 34.0 km/s 222 m/s
I was wondering how I'm able to only grab only the numbers in the string and disregard the units?
I want the values 3.9823, 34.0, and 222
A simple workaround
std::vector<string> x {"3.9823 m/s", "34.0 km/s", "222 m/s"};
for (int i=0; i<x.size(); i++)
{
stringstream ss(x[i]);
float t;
ss >> t;
cout << static_cast<int>(t) << endl;
}
Output
3
34
222
Well, no comment on the robustness of handling input this way, and your question's too self-inconsistent to answer exactly, but to give you an idea:
std::vector<double> results;
double n;
for (int i = 0; i < 3 && std::cin >> n; ++i)
{
results.push_back(n);
std::string units;
std::cin >> units;
}
Here is a way; (using strtof or strtol if you literally wanted only the integers.)
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <cstdlib> // strtof()
int main(){
std::vector<std::string> x;
x.push_back("3.9823 m/s");
x.push_back("34.0 km/s");
x.push_back("222 m/s");
char *pEnd;
float numbers[x.size()];
for(int i = 0; i<x.size(); ++i){
numbers[i] = strtof(x[i].c_str(), &pEnd);
}
for(int i = 0; i<x.size(); ++i){
std::cout<< numbers[i] << '\n';
}
}
Output;
3.9823
34
222
In the general case, you can use std::stringstream with error checking:
#include <iostream>
#include <sstream>
#include <vector>
#include <string>
int main()
{
std::string line;
std::cout << "Please enter in values ";
std::getline(std::cin, line);
std::stringstream is( line );
std::vector< double > x;
double temp;
while (1) {
is >> temp;
while ( !is.eof() && (is.bad() || is.fail()) ) {
is.clear(); // clear the error flag.
is.ignore(256, ' '); // ignore upto space.
is >> temp; // try to read again.
}
if (is.eof()) {
break;
}
x.push_back( temp );
}
for ( int i = 0; i < x.size(); i++ )
std::cout << x[i] << " ";
return 0;
}

C++ -reading file lines [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
Line by line reading in C and C++?
(7 answers)
Closed 8 years ago.
Im using the folowing code to read a file with first and last names in it.
firstname lastname
firstname lastname
do
{ in >> tmp2;
cout << tmp2;
} while(tmp2 != '\n');
this however doesn't detect the end of the line so I cannot progress as I get a infinite loop. Note tmp2 is a char.
how can I fix this.
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;
int main() {
ifstream fin("file");
string first, last, comment;
while (fin >> first >> last) {
cout << first << ' ' << last << endl;
getline(fin, comment); // get the rest annoying strings
}
fin.close();
return 0;
}
One solution: use a stringstream
std::stringstream sstrm;
std::string instr;
while (std::getline(std::cin, instr)) {
sstrm.str(instr);
std::string fname, lname;
sstrm >> fname >> lname;
std::cout << fname << ' ' << lname << '\n';
}
This discard anything after the first two tokens in a line.
