Arrays and File input
I must read two text files into memory using arrays. Then, allow a user to input a name. The porgram should search through both arrays, and, when there is a match, output the popularity and number of namings.
Like this:
Bob is ranked 1 among boys with having 7893 namings.
the text files look like: (name, blankspace, number)
Bob 7893
Jake 6567
Ken 5605
etc...
I just want to know how do I read the files into into memory using arrays?
NOTE: I must NOT use Vectors.
thanks :-)

# 1 Re: Arrays and File input
char array[biggestfilesize];
ifstream inf;
inf.open("filename");
inf.read // I forget the order of the parameters here... look in your help.
// seek end of file and tell to get the filesize or use a CFile(microsoft) or other extension to get this info. look up the members of ifstream to get parameters etc on that.
done, its in a char array. Probably not what they wanted, but it will do the job and its short. What is probably desired is to iterate and read one item at a time into an array.
