Thread: translation code

actually i need to program a translation system for malay-english texts using c++.

i am still new with c++...do u have any suggestion about any suitable book for me to focus only on translation words.

i have try to translate syntax to syntax but i do not know how i can modify the code so that it can translate all string enter by user?


plz help me.....

thank 4 your feedback....
act this is my coding to translate a syntax but i don't know how to translate multiple words ....for example if I translate a syntax "saya" it will produce an english syntax "I"..but how if I want to translate " saya suka" mean " I like".....

anybody know????

Code:

#include <iostream>
#include <cstdio>
using namespace std;

int main() {

int i;
char str[80];
char numbers[10][80]= {
"saya", "i",
"suka", "like",
"makan", "eat",
"nasi", "rice",
"ayam", "chicken" };

cout<<"Enter Malay word to translate: \n";
cout<<"============================== \n\n";
cout<<"\t";
cin>>str;
cout<<"\n\n";

for (i=0; i<10; i+=2)
    if(!strcmp(str, numbers[i])) 
	{
	cout<< "English word is : \n"<<"================================\n\n\n"<<"\t"<<numbers[i+1]<<"\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n";
	break;
	}

if(i==10) cout<< "Not found\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n";

return 0;

}
