Thread: unwanted inverted triangle in console text

Here's my code on my github:
GitHub - jeremyduncanartificialintelligence/musical-artificial-intelligence

Here's the console output, note the inverted triangle at the second line of the program generated text at the start of the line:

Code:

Enter your sentence, end it with a period: to infinity and beyond.

Input sentence to program, from input.txt;
to: value: 1: musical value C: 261Hz: red
▼infinity: value: 4: musical value C: 261Hz: red
▼and: value: 2: musical value g sharp: 415Hz: cyan
▼beyond: value: 2: musical value g sharp: 415Hz: cyan

How do I get rid of that upside down triangle?

It was the shift of the char pointer. I commented that out and the program runs fine now. Here was the bad code with the bug commented out:

Code:

void wordtomusicvalue::write_file_three()
{
    char c;

    ifstream theInputString("file_out.txt");
    ofstream fout3("file_out_3.txt", fstream::app);
    while (theInputString.get(c))
    {
        if(c == 32)
        {
            //c -= 1;
            fout3 << "\n";
        }
        else if(c == 46)
        {
            continue;
        }
        fout3 << c;
    }

    theInputString.close();
    fout3.close();
}

And here is the program results now everything is working good:

Code:

Enter your sentence, end it with a period: to infinity and beyond.

Input sentence to program, from input.txt;

to
value: 1: musical value C: 261Hz: red

infinity
value: 4: musical value C: 261Hz: red

and
value: 2: musical value g sharp: 415Hz: cyan

beyond
value: 2: musical value g sharp: 415Hz: cyan

Code:

if(c == 32)

// ...

else if(c == 46)

You should be using character constants:

Code:

if(c == ' ')

// ...

else if(c == '.')

Thanks. I fixed that.
