This program takes a word from text and puts it in a vector; after this it compares every element with the next one.
So I'm trying to compare element of a vector like this:
sort(words.begin(), words.end());
int cc = 1;
int compte = 1;
int i;
//browse the vector
for (i = 0; i <= words.size(); i++) { // comparison
if (words[i] == words[cc]) {
compte = compte + 1;
}
else { // displaying the word with comparison
cout << words[i] << " Repeated : " << compte; printf("\n");
compte = 1; cc = i;
}
}
My problem in the bounds: i+1 may exceed the vector borders. How to I handle this case?
You need to pay more attention on the initial conditions and bounds when you do iteration and comparing at the same time. It is usually a good idea to execute your code using pen and paper at first.
sort(words.begin(), words.end()); // make sure !words.empty()
int cc = 0; // index of the word we need to compare.
int compte = 1; // counting of the number of occurrence.
for( size_t i = 1; i < words.size(); ++i ){
// since you already count the first word, now we are at i=1
if( words[i] == words[cc] ){
compte += 1;
}else{
// words[i] is going to be different from words[cc].
cout << words[cc] << " Repeated : " << compte << '\n';
compte = 1;
cc = i;
}
}
// to output the last word with its repeat
cout << words[cc] << " Repeated : " << compte << '\n';
Just for some additional information.
There are better ways to count the number of word appearances.
For example, one can use unordered_map<string,int>.
Hope this help.
C++ uses zero-based indexing, e.g., an array of length 5 has indices: {0, 1, 2, 3, 4}. This means that index 5 is outside of the range.
Similarly, given an array arr of characters:
char arr[] = {'a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e'};
The loop for (int i = 0; i <= std::size(arr); ++i) { arr[i]; } will cause a read from outside of the range when i is equal to the length of arr, which causes undefined behaviour. To avoid this the loop must stop before i is equal to the length of the array.
for (std::size_t i = 0; i < std::size(arr); ++i) { arr[i]; }
Also note the use of std::size_t as type of the index counter. This is common practice in C++.
Now, let's finish with an example of how much easier this can be done using the standard library.
std::sort(std::begin(words), std::end(words));
std::map<std::string, std::size_t> counts;
std::for_each(std::begin(words), std::end(words), [&] (const auto& w) { ++counts[w]; });
Output using:
for (auto&& [word, count] : counts) {
std::cout << word << ": " << count << std::endl;
}
My problem in the bounds: i+1 may exceed the vector borders. How to I
handle this case?
In modern C++ coding, the problem of an index going past vector bounds can be avoided. Use the STL containers and avoid using indices. With a little effort devoted to learning how to use containers this way, you should never see these kind of 'off-by-one' errors again! As a benefit, the code becomes more easily understood and maintained.
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <map>
using namespace std;
int main() {
// a test vector of words
vector< string > words { "alpha", "gamma", "beta", "gamma" };
// map unique words to their appearance count
map< string, int > mapwordcount;
// loop over words
for( auto& w : words )
{
// insert word into map
auto ret = mapwordcount.insert( pair<string,int>( w, 1 ) );
if( ! ret.second )
{
// word already present
// so increment count
ret.first->second++;
}
}
// loop over map
for( auto& m : mapwordcount )
{
cout << "word '" << m.first << "' appears " << m.second << " times\n";
}
return 0;
}
Produces
word 'alpha' appears 1 times
word 'beta' appears 1 times
word 'gamma' appears 2 times

If some book or person is teaching you to write code full of
for (i = 0; i < ...
then you should run away quickly and learn modern coding elsewhere.
Same repeated words counting using some C++ STL goodies via multiset and upper_bound:
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <string>
#include <set>
int main()
{
std::vector<std::string> words{ "one", "two", "three", "two", "one" };
std::multiset<std::string> ms(words.begin(), words.end());
for (auto it = ms.begin(), end = ms.end(); it != end; it = ms.upper_bound(*it))
std::cout << *it << " is repeated: " << ms.count(*it) << " times" << std::endl;
return 0;
}

His task is to check whether it is possible from the given Each number is less than the sum of the two adjacent ones.
(each number is less than both of two adjacent ones)
But there is a problem - with a large number of numbers, the code takes too long. Please help me to optimize it, or just give some advice.
numbers cаn not be null.
time limit: 3.0 s
n <= 500000
You are given n numbers a1, a2,…, an. Is it possible to arrange them in a circle so that each number is strictly less than the sum of its neighbors?
For example, for the array [1,4,5,6,7,8], the left array satisfies the condition, while the right array does not, since 5≥4 + 1 and 8> 1 + 6.
Input data
The first line contains one integer n (3≤n≤105) - the number of numbers.
The second line contains n integers a1, a2,…, an (1≤ai≤109) - the numbers themselves. The given numbers are not necessarily different.
Output
If there is no solution, print "NO" on the first line.
If it exists, print "YES" on the first line. After that, on the second line print n numbers - the elements of the array in the order in which they will stand on the circle. The first and last elements you print are considered neighbors on the circle. If there are multiple solutions, output any of them. You can print a circle starting with any of the numbers.
First I'll only briefly analyze technical shortcomings of your code - without analyzing its meaning. After that I'll write my solution of the problem you defined.
Performance problems of your code are due to some strange decisions:
(1) passing std::vector<int> by value and not by reference to SearchInt function - this implies allocating and copying of the whole array on each function invocation,
(2) call SearchInt two times per loop iteration in function main instead of only one,
(3) sort array within each invocation of SearchInt - it is already sorted before the loop.
To be honest your code feels ridiculously time-consuming. I'm only wondering if that was your intention to make it as slow as you possibly can...
I will not analyze correctness of your code according to problem description. To be honest even after fixing technical shortcomings your code seems to me utterly sub-optimal and quite incomprehensible - so it is just easier to solve the problem from scratch to me.
The answer to the problem as defined is YES if the biggest number is smaller than the sum of the second big and the third big and NO otherwise - this follows from the fact that all numbers are positive (in range 1 - 109 according to newly found problem description). If the answer is YES then to make a circle that satisfies the problem description you just need in a sorted sequence of input numbers switch places of the biggest number and the next big one - that's all.
Here is my code for that (for slightly relaxed input format - I'm not checking if number of items is on a separate line and that all items are on the same line - but all correct inputs will be parsed just fine):
#include <set>
#include <iostream>
int main()
{
std::multiset<unsigned> input_set;
unsigned n;
if( !( std::cin >> n ) )
{
std::cerr << "Input error - failed to read number of items." << std::endl;
return 2;
}
if( n - 3U > 105U - 3U )
{
std::cerr << "Wrong number of items value - " << n << " (must be 3 to 105)" << std::endl;
return 2;
}
for( unsigned j = 0; j < n; ++j )
{
unsigned x;
if( !( std::cin >> x ) )
{
std::cerr << "Input error - failed to read item #" << j << std::endl;
return 2;
}
if( x - 1U > 109U - 1U )
{
std::cerr << "Wrong item #" << j << " value - " << x << " (must be 1 to 109)" << std::endl;
return 2;
}
input_set.insert(x);
}
std::multiset<unsigned>::const_reverse_iterator it = input_set.rbegin();
std::multiset<unsigned>::const_reverse_iterator it0 = it;
std::multiset<unsigned>::const_reverse_iterator it1 = ++it;
if( *it0 >= *it1 + *++it )
{
std::cout << "NO (the biggest number is bigger than the sum of the second big and the third big numbers)" << std::endl;
return 1;
}
std::cout << "YES" << std::endl;
std::cout << "Circle: " << *it1 << ' ' << *it0;

I have the following simple code. I declare a vector and initialize it with one value 21 in this case. And then i am trying to find that value in the vector using find. I can see that the element "21" in this case is in the vector since i print it in the for loop. However why the iterator of find does not resolve to true?
vector<uint8_t> v = { 21 };
uint8_t valueToSearch = 21;
for (vector<uint8_t>::const_iterator i = v.begin(); i != v.end(); ++i){
cout << unsigned(*i) << ' ' << endl;
}
auto it = find(v.begin(), v.end(), valueToSearch);
if ( it != v.end() )
{
string m = "valueToSearch was found in the vector " + valueToSearch;
cout << m << endl;
}
are you sure it doesn't work?
I just tried it:
#include<iostream> // std::cout
#include<vector>
#include <algorithm>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
vector<uint8_t> v = { 21 };
uint8_t valueToSearch = 21;
for (vector<uint8_t>::const_iterator i = v.begin(); i != v.end(); ++i){
cout << unsigned(*i) << ' ' << endl;
}
auto it = find(v.begin(), v.end(), valueToSearch);
if ( it != v.end() )
{// if we hit this condition, we found the element
string error = "valueToSearch was found in the vector ";
cout << error << int(valueToSearch) << endl;
}
return 0;
}
There are two small modifications:
in the last lines inside the "if", because you cannot add directly a
number to a string:
string m = "valueToSearch was found in the vector " + valueToSearch;
and it prints:
21
valueToSearch was found in the vector 21
while it's true that you cannot add a number to a string, cout
support the insertion operator (<<) for int types, but not uint8_t,
so you need to convert it to it.
cout << error << int(valueToSearch) << endl;
This to say that the find is working correctly, and it is telling you that it found the number in the first position, and for this, it != end (end is not a valid element, but is a valid iterator that marks the end of your container.)
Try it here
std::count returns a value and I need this value to reset to 0 for all characters in the variable 'counter' after executing the inner for loop. Goal is to count how many times a character appears. If this character appears twice in the string, add one to variable 'd'. If it appears three times, add one to variable 'e'.
Not sure what else to try or if there is potentially a better function to achieve my result.

The program works correctly on first inner for loop, but second and after return values that are too high (albeit correct) for the 'myCount' variable.
std::count doesn't just give you a random value, it gives you a specific value based on the contents of the range you give it. You can't change that behaviour, not should you want to.
Instead, look at that range. Why does std::count gives values that you don't expect? They are either "too high" or they are "correct" and cannot be both; fortunately they are the latter.
This is because you repeatedly std::back_insert to the vector inside your loop. As the loop progresses, you keep counting the old characters from the last time!
If you first cleared myChar then you wouldn't have the problem. Or, ideally, bring the declaration of myChar inside the loop.
A few fixes
1) On error the program should end, not continue:
if (!inFile)
{
std::cout << "oops";
return 1;
}
2) a)myChar is accumulating all the chars of all previously read words, so it has to be cleared before use with every pass of the loop, best to move it's declaration into the block required;
b) if you're using a counter just to count but not using it, better to iterate over the data - in this case get rid of i and iterate with chars checked_char:
while (inFile >> data)
{
std::vector< char > myChar;
std::copy(data.begin(),
data.end(),
std::back_inserter(myChar)); //copy from string data to vector myChar via back inserter.
for (char checked_char = 'a'; checked_char <= 'z'; ++checked_char)
{
int myCount = std::count(myChar.begin(), myChar.end(), checked_char);
if (myCount == 2)
{
d++;
}
else if (myCount == 3)
{
e++;
}
std::cout << "Counter : " << checked_char << " myCount : " << myCount << "\n";
}
}
The program adds different strings to a set. The iterator checks the set for a certain string, what i want to achieve is to get the line where the iterator finds this certain string. Is it possible to get this with a set or do i have to create a vector? The reason i use sets is because i also want not to have duplicates in the end. It is a bit confusing i know, i hope you'll understand.
Edit: i want to get the line number of the original element already existing in the set, if a duplicate is found

for (int i = 0; i < 6; i++)
{
crossproduct[i] = i+1;
}
crossproduct[6] = 1;
crossproduct[7] = 2;
crossproduct[8] = 3;
for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++)
{
ostringstream cp; cp.precision(1); cp << fixed;
ostringstream cp1; cp1.precision(1); cp1 << fixed;

it = test.find(cpstot);

{
//Display here the line where "1 2 3" was found
cout << "i: " << i << endl;
}

}
"Line number" is not very meaningful to a std::set<string>,
because as you add more strings to the set you may change the
order in which the existing strings are iterated through
(which is about as much of a "line number" as the set::set template
itself will give you).
Here's an alternative that may work better:
std::map<std::string, int> test.
The way you use this is you keep a "line counter" n somewhere.
Each time you need to put a new string cpstot in your set,
you have code like this:
std::map<std::string>::iterator it = test.find(cpstot);
if (it == test.end())
{
test[cpstot] = n;
// alternatively, test.insert(std::pair<std::string, int>(cpstot, n))
++n;
}
else
{
// this prints out the integer that was associated with cpstot in the map
std::cout << "i: " << it->second;
// Notice that we don't try to insert cpstot into the map in this case.
// It's already there, and we don't want to change its "line number",
// so there is nothing good we can accomplish by an insertion.
// It's a waste of effort to even try.
}
If you set n = 0 before you started putting any strings in test then
(and don't mess with the value of n in any other way)
then you will end up with strings at "line numbers" 0, 1, 2, etc.
in test and n will be the number of strings stored in test.
By the way, neither std::map<std::string, int>::iterator nor
std::set<std::string>::iterator is guaranteed to iterate through
the strings in the sequence in which they were first inserted.
Instead, what you'll get is the strings in whatever order the
template's comparison object puts the string values.
(I think by default you get them back in lexicographic order,
that is, "alphabetized".)
But when you store the original "line number" of each string in
std::map<std::string, int> test, when you are ready to
print out the list of strings you can copy the string-integer pairs
from test to a new object, std::map<int, std::string> output_sequence,
and now (assuming you do not override the default comparison object)
when you iterate through output_sequence you will get its
contents sorted by line number.
(You will then probably want to get the string
from the second field of the iterator.)
I have made this code to store the position of each bit 1 entered in a binary sequence. The output of the program is not what it is desired. The output I get for 10100 is 0x7fff9109be00. Here is the code:
#include <iostream>
#include <bitset>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
bitset <5> inpSeq;
int x = 0;
int xorArray[x];
unsigned int i;
cout << "Enter a 5-bit sequence: \n";
cin >> inpSeq;
for ( i = 0; i < inpSeq.size(); i++)
{
if ( inpSeq[i] == 1 )
{
x = x+1;
xorArray[x] = i;
}
}
cout << xorArray << "\n";
}
Update for clarity: What I had in mind was that 'cout << xorArray' will print bit 1's positions.
cout << xorArray << "\n";
This does not print the elements of xorArray; it prints its address.
You must iterate ("loop over") it:
for (auto x : xorArray)
cout << x << ' ';
cout << '\n';
Your other problem is that you're trying to use a variable-length array, which does not exist in C++. Use a vector instead.
Now it gives you your desired output:
#include <iostream>
#include <bitset>
#include <vector>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
bitset<5> inpSeq("10111");
std::vector<int> xorArray;
for (unsigned int i = 0; i < inpSeq.size(); i++) {
if (inpSeq[i] == 1)
xorArray.push_back(i);
}
for (auto x : xorArray)
cout << x << ' ';
cout << '\n';
}
If you're not using C++11 for whatever reason, you can perform that final loop the traditional way:
for (std::vector<int>::const_iterator it = xorArray.begin(),
end = xorArray.end(),
it != end; ++it) {
cout << *it << ' ';
}
Or the naive way:
for (unsigned int i = 0; i < xorArray.size(); i++)
cout << xorArray[i] << ' ';
I am a little unclear on exactly what you are trying to achieve, but I think the following might help.
#include <iostream>
#include <bitset>
#include <list>
using namespace std;
int main() {
bitset<5> inpSeq;
unsigned int i;
list<int> xorList;
cout << "Enter a 5-bit sequence: \n";
cin >> inpSeq;
for (i = 0; i < inpSeq.size(); ++i) {
if (inpSeq[i] == 1) {
xorList.push_back(i);
}
}
for (list<int>::iterator list_iter = xorList.begin();
list_iter != xorList.end(); list_iter++)
{
cout << *list_iter << endl;
}
return 0;
}
The reason why I am using a list is because you mentioned wanting to store the positions of the 1 bit. The list is being used as the container for those positions, in case you need them in another point in the program.
One of the problems with the original code was that you assigned variable 'x' the value 0. When you declared xorArray[x], that meant you were essentially creating an array of length 0. This is incorrect syntax. It looks like you actually were trying to dynamically allocate the size of the array at runtime. That requires a different syntax and usage of pointers. The list allows you to grow the data structure for each 1 bit that you encounter.
Also, you cannot print an array's values by using
cout << xorArray << endl
That will print the memory address of the first element in the array, so, xorArray[0]. Whenever you want to print the values of a data structure such as a list or array, you need to iterate across the structure and print the values one by one. That is the purpose of the second for() loop in the above code.
Lastly, the values stored are in accordance with the 0 index. If you want positions that start with 1, you'll have to use
xorList.push_back(i+1);
Hope this helps!
