PostPosted: Sun Jan 29, 2006 4:00 pm    Post subject: reading lines from file Reply with quote


The question is pretty simple, i have a file called "primes.txt" and
funny enough it contains alot of primes (one per line)
Besides that i have an empty vector:
vector<__int64> P(0);

How do i fill that with the contents of the file?
P.push_back(line 1);
P.push_back(line 2);
ect.

I have tryed different stuff with getline() but it just wont work.
Hope someone can help ASAP.

Regards

The file provides a sequence of values, and you need to copy that
sequence into a vector:

ifstream input("primes.tx");
copy(istream_iterator<__int64>(input), istream_iterator<__int64>(),
back_inserter(p));

This is a fundamental idiom. Learn it.

What about:

#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <iterator>
#include <algorithm>
#include <fstream>

int main ( void ) {
std::fstream primes ( "primes.txt" );
std::vector< int > p_vect;
// read
std::copy( std::istream_iterator<int>( primes ),
std::istream_iterator<int>(),
std::back_inserter( p_vect ) );
// write
std::copy( p_vect.begin(), p_vect.end(),
std::ostream_iterator<int>( std::cout, "\n" ) );
}

The first piece of code suplyed by Pete worked fine, heres the code so
you can correct me if i have made a bummer ;-)

#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <math.h>
#include <fstream>
#include <iterator>

using namespace std;

vector<__int64> P(0); // an empty vector to cotain the primes.
int prime_pointer = 0; // is used to make sure that the same prime
// isnt writen to file more than once.

void find_prime() { // searches for primes.
int p_size = P.size();
bool loop;
int i;
for (__int64 test = P.back() + 2; test > 0 && p_size == P.size();
test += 2) {
for (loop = true, i = 0; P[i] < sqrt(test) && loop == true;
i++) {
if (test % P[i] == 0) {
loop = false;
}
else if (P[i+1] > sqrt(test)) {
loop = false;
P.push_back(test);
}
}
}
}

void print_primes() { // print the complete P vector on
screen.
for (int i = 0; i < P.size(); i++) {
cout << P[i] << endl;
}
}

void read_primes() { // read primes from file.
ifstream primes("primes.txt");
if (!primes && P.size() == 0) {
P.push_back(2);
P.push_back(3);
}
else if (P.size() == 0) {
copy(istream_iterator<__int64>(primes),
istream_iterator<__int64>(), back_inserter(P));
prime_pointer = P.size();
}
primes.close();
}

void write_primes() { // write primes to file.
ofstream primes("primes.txt",ios::out | ios::app);
for (int i = prime_pointer; i < P.size(); i++) {
primes << P[i] << endl;
}
primes.close();
prime_pointer = P.size();
}

int main() {
// some code.
}

By the way i have only been coding c++ for about a week, so cut me some
slack eh? Wink

Questionable practice: you will want to avoid this in header files.
Also: what you show below might give rise to a header.

Generally, I frown upon the use of global variables. Looks like this wants
to be a class PrimeNumberTable.

Will this outer for loop ever loop? P.size() will increase but where is
p_size updated. If this for loop executes only once, why is it a loop?

Quote:
for (loop = true, i = 0; P[i] < sqrt(test) && loop == true;
i++) {
if (test % P[i] == 0) {
loop = false;
}
else if (P[i+1] > sqrt(test)) {
loop = false;
P.push_back(test);
}
}
}
}

Are you sure find_primes() is a good name. Looks like you really want to add
primes to the table.

Quote:

void print_primes() { // print the complete P vector on screen.
for (int i = 0; i < P.size(); i++) {
cout << P[i] << endl;
}
}


std::copy( P.begin(), P.end(),
std::ostream_iterator<unsigned long>(std::cout, "\n") );

Quote:
void read_primes() { // read primes from file.
ifstream primes("primes.txt");
if (!primes && P.size() == 0) {
P.push_back(2);
P.push_back(3);
}
else if (P.size() == 0) {
copy(istream_iterator<__int64>(primes),
istream_iterator<__int64>(), back_inserter(P));
prime_pointer = P.size();
}
primes.close();

The stream closes automaticall upon destruction.

Quote:

void write_primes() { // write primes to file.
ofstream primes("primes.txt",ios::out | ios::app);

}
primes.close();

Quote:

}

int main() {
// some code.

As I said, it looks like this wants to be a data structure. Something like

class PrimeNumberTable {

std::string file_name;
std::vector< unsigned long > data;
unsigned long file_size;

void read_file ( void );
// fills data from file

void update_file ( void );
// flushes additionally computed primes to file.

public:

PrimeNumberTable ( std::string f_name = "primes.txt" );
// init file_name
// read_file()
// set file_size

~PrimeNumberTable ( void );
// update the file on disk and store all additionally computed
// primes.

void extend_table ( unsigned long new_max_entry );
// add all prime numbers <= new_max_entry

}; // PrimeNumberTable

the for loop might as well have been an if statement, u r right about

number of loops.
the reason i need an if statement is that i dont want the program to do
some thing weird when it reaches value higer than the __int64 can
contain. in my experience ull get some weird negative number if thats
the case, and thats the reason for the test > 0 statement.

math.h is a C header. Most of the C headers can be included by cxxxxx xxxx
being the old name without .h. The main reason to use cxxxx instead of the
old headers is to respect namespace (afaik). So the old header <string.h>
would be <cstring> <math.h> would be <cmath>, etc...

Well, using namespace std; totally defeats the purpose of having namespaces
in the first place. Namespaces were created to get over the problem of name
collision. You declare a function MyFunction() in your program, but some
header your include also happens to have a MyFunction() declared, you get
name collision. But, if the header you include is using the std namespace,
then there is no collision. Your function is in the unnamed namespace, the
one you included is in the std namespace. Your function is gotten to by
MyFunction(), the one you included is gotten to by std::MyFunction().

Now, you say using namespace std; now you just brought everything you
included into the unnamed namespace, and you can get name collision. I know
it's a pain to keep typing std:: but you get used to it real quick so that
if you actually do it you soon don't even notice.

output for my compiler is:

Yes, the stream closes automatically upon destruction, but I also close my
streams when I'm done with them. I feel it's kinda like a documentation in
the code saying I ain't gonna be using this stream no more in the current
method/function.

Actually, read_primes loads the table. Find primes seems to search the
table, so it seems like a good name to me. Although I didn't look at the
function real close.

For some standard headers there are two versions. In this case, you used
<math.h>. The header <cmath> provides the same functions, except that it
defines everything within the namespace std. That is usually a Good Thing

If you say

using namespace std;

in a header file (e.g., prime_numbers.h), then every file including that
header will also have all identifiers from std dumped into global
namespace. It is considered Bad Practice (tm) for a library designer to
make such a decision for the clients.

__int64 does not exist on all platforms. On my machine, your program simply
does not compile. __int64 is *not* standard C++. Your compiler happens to
support it, mine does not. Portability is a plus. In this case, you ca
achieve it without loosing anything.

The standard library has some very nifty concepts that interact quite
nicely:

* containers
* iterators
* algorithms

Containers encapsulate and abstract data structures like doubly linked lists
or balanced trees into things like std::list< some_type > or std::map< key,
value >. Iterators provide a uniform abstraction for access and traversal
of those data structures. Finally algorithms usually work on ranges defined
by pairs of iterators. This way, iterators decouple algorithms from
containers.

[code snipped]

Ok, and here is some code for you to chew on. You may find it worthwhile
figuring out how it does what it does. In particular, notice how the class
PrimeNumberTable encapsulates the file and vector handling.

Here goes:


#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <cmath>
#include <fstream>
#include <iterator>
#include <string>
#include <cassert>

class PrimeNumberTable {

typedef std::vector< unsigned long > Table;

public:

typedef Table::size_type SizeType;

private:

std::string file_name;
Table data;
SizeType file_size;

// prevent copying
PrimeNumberTable ( PrimeNumberTable const & );
PrimeNumberTable & operator= ( PrimeNumberTable const & other );

bool ungarded_is_prime ( unsigned long candidate ) const {
assert( data.back() >= std::sqrt( candidate ) );
for ( SizeType index = 0;
data[index] < std::sqrt( candidate );
++ index ) {
if ( candidate % data[index] == 0 ) {
return ( false );
}
}
return ( true );
}

void extend_by_bound ( unsigned long max_entry ) {
unsigned long next_candidate = data.back() + 2;
while ( next_candidate <= max_entry ) {
if ( ungarded_is_prime( next_candidate ) ) {
data.push_back( next_candidate );
}
next_candidate += 2;
}
}

void extend_by_length ( SizeType length ) {
unsigned long next_candidate = data.back() + 2;
while ( data.size() < length ) {
if ( ungarded_is_prime( next_candidate ) ) {
data.push_back( next_candidate );
}
next_candidate += 2;
}
}

public:

PrimeNumberTable ( std::string name = "primes.txt" )
: file_name ( name )
{
std::ifstream primes ( file_name.c_str() );
std::copy( std::istream_iterator<unsigned long>( primes ),
std::istream_iterator<unsigned long>(),
std::back_inserter( data ) );
file_size = data.size();
if ( data.size() < 2 ) {
data.clear();
data.push_back( 2 );
data.push_back( 3 );
}
}

~PrimeNumberTable ( void ) {

If you look closely enough, you will find that most of this is actually
inspired by the code you provided. Most of it, I just reorganized.

What about:

int main ( void ) {
std::fstream primes ( "primes.txt" );

No error handling when open fails.

Quote:
std::vector< int > p_vect;
// read
std::copy( std::istream_iterator<int>( primes ),
std::istream_iterator<int>(),
std::back_inserter( p_vect ) );

No error handling. What happens when a read error occcurs or when an
invalid 'prime' (some text) is read from "primes.txt"?
What if the user wants to know the line of the error?

Quote:
// write
std::copy( p_vect.begin(), p_vect.end(),
std::ostream_iterator<int>( std::cout, "\n" ) );

Always returns EXIT_SUCCESS
