    file i/o

    When i read in from an input file how do i know if a word in that file ends with an s.

    And what if I have to change the word shoe to sock everytime the word shoe is in the file. How would i do this

    thanks

    What do you have so far?
    Naturally I didn't feel inspired enough to read all the links for you, since I already slaved away for long hours under a blistering sun pressing the search button after typing four whole words! - Quzah

    Here's a start:
    Code:
    using namespace std;
    ifstream fin("in.dat");
    
    string input;
    while (getline(fin, input))
    {
         if (input == "shoe")
             // Do something
    }
    
    fin.close();
    Hope this helps.
