How to read a integer value from a string in C++? [duplicate] - c++

Question

I realize that this question may have been asked several times in the past, but I am going to continue regardless.
I have a program that is going to get a string of numbers from keyboard input. The numbers will always be in the form "66 33 9" Essentially, every number is separated with a space, and the user input will always contain a different amount of numbers.
I'm aware that using 'sscanf' would work if the amount of numbers in every user-entered string was constant, but this is not the case for me. Also, because I'm new to C++, I'd prefer dealing with 'string' variables rather than arrays of chars.

Answer 1

I assume you want to read an entire line, and parse that as input. So, first grab the line:
std::string input;
std::getline(std::cin, input);
Now put that in a stringstream:
std::stringstream stream(input);
and parse
while(1) {
int n;
stream >> n;
if(!stream)
break;
std::cout << "Found integer: " << n << "\n";
}
Remember to include
#include <string>
#include <sstream>

Answer 2

The C++ String Toolkit Library (Strtk) has the following solution to your problem:
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <deque>
#include <algorithm>
#include <iterator>
#include "strtk.hpp"
int main()
{
std::string s = "1 23 456 7890";
std::deque<int> int_list;
strtk::parse(s," ",int_list);
std::copy(int_list.begin(),
int_list.end(),
std::ostream_iterator<int>(std::cout,"\t"));
return 0;
}

#include <string>
#include <vector>
#include <iterator>
#include <sstream>
#include <iostream>
int main() {
std::string input;
while ( std::getline( std::cin, input ) )
{
std::vector<int> inputs;
std::istringstream in( input );
std::copy( std::istream_iterator<int>( in ), std::istream_iterator<int>(),
std::back_inserter( inputs ) );
// Log process:
std::cout << "Read " << inputs.size() << " integers from string '"
<< input << "'" << std::endl;
std::cout << "\tvalues: ";
std::copy( inputs.begin(), inputs.end(),
std::ostream_iterator<int>( std::cout, " " ) );
std::cout << std::endl;
}
}

#include <string>
#include <vector>
#include <sstream>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int ReadNumbers( const string & s, vector <int> & v ) {
istringstream is( s );
int n;
while( is >> n ) {
v.push_back( n );
}
return v.size();
}
int main() {
string s;
vector <int> v;
getline( cin, s );
ReadNumbers( s, v );
for ( int i = 0; i < v.size(); i++ ) {
cout << "number is " << v[i] << endl;
}
}

Answer 5

// get string
std::string input_str;
std::getline( std::cin, input_str );
// convert to a stream
std::stringstream in( input_str );
// convert to vector of ints
std::vector<int> ints;
copy( std::istream_iterator<int, char>(in), std::istream_iterator<int, char>(), back_inserter( ints ) );

Answer 6

Here is how to split your string into strings along the spaces. Then you can process them one-by-one.

Answer 7

Generic solution for unsigned values (dealing with prefix '-' takes an extra bool):
template<typename InIter, typename OutIter>
void ConvertNumbers(InIter begin, InIter end, OutIter out)
{
typename OutIter::value_type accum = 0;
for(; begin != end; ++begin)
{
typename InIter::value_type c = *begin;
if (c==' ') {
*out++ = accum; accum = 0; break;
} else if (c>='0' && c <='9') {
accum *= 10; accum += c-'0';
}
}
*out++ = accum;
// Dealing with the last number is slightly complicated because it
// could be considered wrong for "1 2 " (produces 1 2 0) but that's similar
// to "1 2" which produces 1 0 2. For either case, determine if that worries
// you. If so: Add an extra bool for state, which is set by the first digit,
// reset by space, and tested before doing *out++=accum.
}

Answer 8

Try strtoken to separate the string first, then you will deal with each string.
