    read data

    How can I modify the code to input the second columns of the following data file into array x[N]

    VELOCITY
    3 4 5
    4 5 6
    ...N

    x[] = 4, 5 ...N


    Code:
    int main(){
    
    	double x[N];
    
    	ifstream in("file.txt");
    
    	int i = 0;
    	while (i < N && in >> x[i])
    	{
    		i++;
    	}
    }
    Thanks

    Read in a line at a time (3 values), throw away (or do something else with) the two values you don't want and store the other (the 2nd column):
    Code:
    double temp1, temp2;
    while( i < N && in >> temp1 >> x[i] >> temp2 )
    {
        ++i;
    }
