I want to take the below code and modify it, so that it reads the text from example.txt and then creates a variable for each character in that document, so if the .txt said, "Hello" the program should do
pos1=H;
pos2=e'
pos3=l;
pos4=l;
pos5=o;
Code:#include <iostream.h> #include <fstream.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <conio.h> int main() { char str[100]; ifstream b_file("example.txt"); b_file.getline(str,100,'\n'); cout << str << endl; b_file.close(); getch(); return 0; }

You would need to create the variables on the heap. By using the new keyword you could do this. But I am too new to help. Sorry.
You'll need an array, like you're using... or you can flex your C++ muscles and use an std::string
Also, opt for the new standard headers <iostream> <fstream> etc. Drop the .hCode:#include <iostream> #include <fstream> #include <string> int main(int argc, char** argv) { std::ifstream fin("example.txt"); std::string buffer; std::getline(fin, buffer); std::cout << buffer << std::endl; std::cin.get(); return 0; }
whatever this :: stuff is, Borland C++ 5.02 doesnt seem to recognize it

Do you know arrays, pointers, and strings?
if you don't go learn them.
If you know them, rewrite that program using them.
Then post when you have some difficulties.
none...
This might be what your looking for :
Code:#include <iostream> #include <fstream> using namespace std; int main( int argc, char *argv[] ) { fstream file("test.txt", ios::in | ios::out); file.seekp(0, ios_base::end); int length = file.tellg(); file.seekp(0, ios_base::beg); char *buf = new char[length]; char ch; int counter=0; while (!file.eof()) { file.get(ch); buf[counter++] = ch; } for (int x=0; x < length; x++) cout << buf[x]; cout << endl; return 0; }
