Do you know the syntax for each of these, used to read and write to data files?
Pointers: think of it as the memory address of the file
fopen()
fclose()
fscanf()
fprintf()
fopen() returns a FILE pointer back to the pRead variable
#include <cstdio>
}
{
Main()
FILE *pRead; pRead = fopen(“file1.dat”, “r”); if(pRead == NULL) printf(“\nFile cannot be opened\n”); else printf(“\nFile opened for reading\n”);
“r”
“w”
“a”
“r+“
Mode
“w+“
“a+“
Meaning
Open a file for reading
Create a file for writing
Append to a file
Open a file for read/write
Create a file for read/write
Open a file for read/write
Already Exists read from start destroy contents write to end read from start destroy contents write to end
Does Not Exist error create new create new error create new create new
Pretty basic.
Reads a single field from a data file
“%s” will read a series of characters until a white space is found
can do fscanf(pRead, “%s%s”, name, hobby);
#include <stdio.h>
{
Main()
FILE *pRead; char name[10]; pRead = fopen(“names.dat”, “r”); if( pRead == NULL ) printf( “\nFile cannot be opened\n”); else printf(“\nContents of names.dat\n”); fscanf( pRead, “%s”, name );
}
} while( !feof(pRead) ) { printf( “%s\n”, name ); fscanf( pRead, “%s”, name );

Can you write a program that prints out the contents of this information.dat file?
#include <stdio.h>
{
Main()
FILE *pRead; char name[10]; char birthdate[9]; float number; char hometown[20]; pRead = fopen(“information.dat”, “r”);
} if( pRead == NULL ) printf( “\nFile cannot be opened\n”); else fscanf( pRead, “%s%s%f”, name, birthdate, &number, hometown ); while( !feof(pRead) ) { printf( “%s \t %s \t %f \t %s\n”, name, birthdate, &number, hometown ); fscanf( pRead, “%s%s%f”, name, birthdate, &number, hometown );
}
The fprintf() function sends information (the arguments) according to the specified format to the file indicated by stream. fprintf() works just like printf() as far as the format goes.
}
#include <stdio.h>
{
Main()
FILE *pWrite; char fName[20]; char lName [20]; float gpa; pWrite = fopen(“students.dat”,”w”); if( pWrite == NULL ) printf(“\nFile not opened\n”); else printf(“\nEnter first name, last name, and GPA separated” printf(“Enter data separated by spaces:”); scanf(“%s%s%f”, fName, lName, &gpa); fprintf(pWrite, “%s \t %s \t % .2f \n”, fName, lName, gpa); fclose(pWrite);
Can you write a program that asks the user for their
Name
Phone Number
Bank account balance
And then prints this information to a data file called accounts.dat ?
Summary
Include #include <iostream> directive at beginning of program
Use cin to take data from user
Use cout to display data on screen
▪ Display multiple strings and integers in the same cout statement by separating items with <<
#include <iostream>
#include<string> using namespace std; string name = “”;
}
{ int main(void) cout<<“What is your name?”; cin>>name; cout<<endl<<“Hello”<<name.c_str(); return 0;
#include <iostream> using namespace std; int x = 25; string str2 = “This is a test”;
}
{ int main( void ) cout<<“Test”<<1<<2<<“3”; cout<<25 %7<<endl<<str2.c_str(); return 0;
Test 1234

What do each of the following evaluate to?
1. long elves = 8; int dwarves = 8; if(elves==dwarves) //true or false?
if(elves!=0) //true or false?
2. int elves = 4; int dwarves = 5; if(dwarves > (2/3)) //true or false?
3. if(0 < x < 99) //true or false?
4. if(0<= (0<1))//true or false?

Purpose
Exits the nearest enclosing “switch” statement or iteration statement
Starts the next loop of the nearest enclosing iteration statement
Jumps to a particular place in your code
Ends a function and returns a value
Can you write a program that prints out the following?
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
}
{ for ( int count = 0; count < 10; count ++) cout <<count<<“”;
1.
Write a conditional statement that will assign x/y to x if y doesn’t equal 0.
2.
Write a while loop that calculates the summative of positive integers from 1 to some number n.
3.
Write a conditional statement that assigns x*y if x is even; otherwise , if x is odd and y doesn’t equal 0, assign x to x/y; if neither of the preceding cases is true, output to the screen that y is equal to 0.
Function declaration

Function call
#include <iostream> using namespace std; int add(int a, int b);
{ int main(void) int number1, number2; cout << “Enter the first value to be summed:”’ cin >> number1; cout << “\nEnter the second:”;
} cin >> number2; cout << “\n The sum is: “ << add (number1, number2) <<endl;
}
{ int add(int a, int b) return a+b;
Write a function, called multiply that multiplies two numbers and returns the result
Declare classes
Create objects
3 MAIN PRINCIPLES OF OOP
Data abstraction – hiding data members and implementation of a class behind an interface so that the user of the class corrupt that data
Encapsulation – each class represents a specific thing or concept. Multiple classes combine to produce the whole
Polymorphism-objects can be used in more than one program
Classes are general models from which you can create objects
Classes have data members either data types or methods
Classes should contain a constructor method and a destructor method
See handout for example of a program that utilizes a class
{ class ClassName memberList
}; memberList can be either data member declarations or method declarations
{
Class Bow
//data member declarations string color; bool drawn; int numOfArrows;
Bow(string aColor); //constructor
~Bow(); //destructor
};
//methods void draw(); int fire();
}
{
Return_type
ClassName::methodName(argumentList) methodImplementation
//draws the bow
}
{
Void Bow::draw() drawn = true; cout<< “The “<<color<<“bow has been drawn.”<<endl;
Arrays
Pointers
data_type array_name [number-of-elements];
Two Dimensional Array array_type array_name [number_ofelements1][number_of_elements2];
type* pointer_name;
ex.
int my_int; int* my_int_pointer = &my_int;
Assigns the address of my_int to the pointer
Copying strings from one to another
char* strcpy(char* p, const char* q);
char s[6]; strcpy(s, “Hello”);
To combine strings
char* strcat(char* p, const char* q);
char s[12] = “Hello” strcat(s, “World”);
To copy n characters from q to the of p.
char* strncpy(char* p, const char* q, int n);
char s [7] = “Say “; char t[] = “Hi”; strncpy (s, t, 2)
Can you write a program using C++ that uses a FOR loop to initialize a 2D array that looks like the following {0,5,10,15}{0,2,4,6}
#include<iostream> using namespace std; int main(void)
{ int array[4][4]; for( int i = 0; i< 5; i++)
{

Used to create functions, classes, and variables of the same name
Ex.
}
{
Namespace combat void fire()
{
}
Namespace exploration void fire()
To call a namespace combat::fire()
Say (to avoid having to put combat:: every time using namespace combat; fire()
}
{ class aClass public: int anInt;
{ class aDerivedClass : public aClass protected: float aFloat;
};
Used in place of a specific data type. For example, use a template to add data types together, whichever data type the user wishes (i.e integers, floats)
