I am trying to read in a file that contains digits operated by commas and store them in an array without the commas present.
For example: processes.txt contains
0,1,3
1,0,5
2,9,8
3,10,6
And an array called numbers should look like:
0 1 3 1 0 5 2 9 8 3 10 6
The code I had so far is:
FILE *fp1;
char c; //declaration of characters
fp1=fopen(argv[1],"r"); //opening the file
int list[300];
c=fgetc(fp1); //taking character from fp1 pointer or file
int i=0,number,num=0;
while(c!=EOF){ //iterate until end of file
if (isdigit(c)){ //if it is digit
sscanf(&c,"%d",&number); //changing character to number (c)
num=(num*10)+number;
}
else if (c==',' || c=='\n') { //if it is new line or ,then it will store the number in list
list[i]=num;
num=0;
i++;
}
c=fgetc(fp1);
}
But this is having problems if it is a double digit. Does anyone have a better solution? Thank you!
For the data shown with no space before the commas, you could simply use:
while (fscanf(fp1, "%d,", &num) == 1 && i < 300)
list[i++] = num;
This will read the comma after the number if there is one, silently ignoring when there isn't one. If there might be white space before the commas in the data, add a blank before the comma in the format string. The test on i prevents you writing outside the bounds of the list array. The ++ operator comes into its own here.
First, fgetc returns an int, so c needs to be an int.
Other than that, I would use a slightly different approach. I admit that it is slightly overcomplicated. However, this approach may be usable if you have several different types of fields that requires different actions, like a parser. For your specific problem, I recommend Johathan Leffler's answer.
int c=fgetc(f);
while(c!=EOF && i<300) {
if(isdigit(c)) {
fseek(f, -1, SEEK_CUR);
if(fscanf(f, "%d", &list[i++]) != 1) {
// Handle error
}
}
c=fgetc(f);
}
Here I don't care about commas and newlines. I take ANYTHING other than a digit as a separator. What I do is basically this:
read next byte
if byte is digit:
back one byte in the file
read number, irregardless of length
else continue
The added condition i<300 is for security reasons. If you really want to check that nothing else than commas and newlines (I did not get the impression that you found that important) you could easily just add an else if (c == ... to handle the error.
Note that you should always check the return value for functions like sscanf, fscanf, scanf etc. Actually, you should also do that for fseek. In this situation it's not as important since this code is very unlikely to fail for that reason, so I left it out for readability. But in production code you SHOULD check it.
My solution is to read the whole line first and then parse it with strtok_r with comma as a delimiter. If you want portable code you should use strtok instead.
A naive implementation of readline would be something like this:
static char *readline(FILE *file)
{
char *line = malloc(sizeof(char));
int index = 0;
int c = fgetc(file);
if (c == EOF) {
free(line);
return NULL;
}
while (c != EOF && c != '\n') {
line[index++] = c;
char *l = realloc(line, (index + 1) * sizeof(char));
if (l == NULL) {
free(line);
return NULL;
}
line = l;
c = fgetc(file);
}
line[index] = '\0';
return line;
}
Then you just need to parse the whole line with strtok_r, so you would end with something like this:
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
FILE *file = fopen(argv[1], "re");
int list[300];
if (file == NULL) {
return 1;
}
char *line;
int numc = 0;
while((line = readline(file)) != NULL) {
char *saveptr;
// Get the first token
char *tok = strtok_r(line, ",", &saveptr);
// Now start parsing the whole line
while (tok != NULL) {
// Convert the token to a long if possible
long num = strtol(tok, NULL, 0);
if (errno != 0) {
// Handle no value conversion
// ...
// ...
}
list[numc++] = (int) num;
// Get next token
tok = strtok_r(NULL, ",", &saveptr);
}
free(line);
}
fclose(file);
return 0;
}
And for printing the whole list just use a for loop:
for (int i = 0; i < numc; i++) {
printf("%d ", list[i]);
}
printf("\n");

I have a file that contains words and their synonyms each on a separate line.
I am writing this code that should read the file line by line then display it starting from the second word which is the synonym.
I used the variable count in the first loop in order to be able to count the number of synonyms of each word because the number of synonyms differs from one to another. Moreover I used the condition synonyms[i]==',' because each synonym is separate by a comma.
The purpose of me writing such code is to put them in a binary search tree in order to have a full dictionary.
The code doesn't contain any error yet it is not working.
I have tried to each the loop but that didn't work too.
Sample input from the file:
abruptly - dead, short, suddenly
acquittance - release
adder - common, vipera
Sample expected output:
dead short suddenly
acquittance realse
common vipera
Here is the code:
void LoadFile(FILE *fp){
int count;
int i;
char synonyms[50];
char word[50];
while(fgets(synonyms,50,fp)!=NULL){
for (i=0;i<strlen(synonyms);i++)
if (synonyms[i]==',' || synonyms[i]=='\n')
count++;
}
while(fscanf(fp,"%s",word)==1){
for(i=1;i<strlen(synonyms);i++){
( fscanf(fp,"%s",synonyms)==1);
printf("%s",synonyms);
}
}
}
int main(){
char fn[]="C:/Users/CLICK ONCE/Desktop/Semester 4/i2206/Project/Synonyms.txt";
FILE *fp;
fp=fopen(fn,"rt");
if (fp==NULL){
printf("Cannot open this file");
}
else{
LoadFile(fp);
}
return 0;
}
Here is my solution. I have split the work into functions for readability. The actual parsing is done in parsefunction. That function thakes into account hyphenated compound words such as seventy-two. The word and his synonyms must be separated by an hyphen preceded by at least one space.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <ctype.h>
// Trim leading and trailing space characters.
// Warning: string is modified
char* trim(char* s) {
char* p = s;
int l = strlen(p);
while (isspace(p[l - 1])) p[--l] = 0;
while (*p && isspace(*p)) ++p, --l;
memmove(s, p, l + 1);
return s;
}
// Warning: string is modified
int parse(char* line)
{
char* token;
char* p;
char* word;
if (line == NULL) {
printf("Missing input line\n");
return 0;
}
// first find the word delimiter: an hyphen preceded by a space
p = line;
while (1) {
p = strchr(p, '-');
if (p == NULL) {
printf("Missing hypen\n");
return 0;
}
if ((p > line) && (p[-1] == ' ')) {
// We found an hyphen preceded by a space
*p = 0; // Replace by nul character (end of string)
break;
}
p++; // Skip hyphen inside hypheneted word
}
word = trim(line);
printf("%s ", word);
// Next find synonyms delimited by a coma
char delim[] = ", ";
token = strtok(p + 1, delim);
while (token != NULL) {
printf("%s ", token);
token = strtok(NULL, delim);
}
printf("\n");
return 1;
}
int LoadFile(FILE* fp)
{
if (fp == NULL) {
printf("File not open\n");
return 0;
}
int ret = 1;
char str[1024]; // Longest allowed line
while (fgets(str, sizeof(str), fp) != NULL) {
str[strcspn(str, "\r\n")] = 0; // Remove ending \n
ret &= parse(str);
}
return ret;
}
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
FILE* fp;
char* fn = "Synonyms.txt";
fp = fopen(fn, "rt");
if (fp == NULL) {
perror(fn);
return 1;
}
int ret = LoadFile(fp);
fclose(fp);
return ret;
}
I think the biggest conceptual misunderstanding demonstrated in the code is a failure to understand how fgets and fscanf work.
Consider the following lines of code:
while(fgets(synonyms,50,fp)!=NULL){
...
while(fscanf(fp,"%49s",word)==1){
for(i=1;i<strlen(synonyms);i++){
fscanf(fp,"%49s",synonyms);
printf("%s",synonyms);
}
}
}
The fgets reads one line of the input. (Unless there is an input line that is greater than 49 characters long (48 + a newline), in which case fgets will only read the first 49 characters. The code should check for that condition and handle it.) The next fscanf then reads a word from the next line of input. The first line is effectively being discarded! If the input is formatted as expected, the 2nd scanf will read a single - into synonyms. This makes strlen(synonyms) evaluate to 1, so the for loop terminates. The while scanf loop then reads another word, and since synonyms still contains a string of length 1, the for loop is never entered. while scanf then proceeds to read the rest of the file. The next call to fgets returns NULL (since the fscanf loop has read to the end of the file) so the while/fgets loop terminates after 1 iteration.
I believe the intention was for the scanfs inside the while/fgets to operate on the line read by fgets. To do that, all the fscanf calls should be replaced by sscanf.
I have the following text file:
13.69 (s, 1H), 11.09 (s, 1H).
So far I can quite happily use either fgets or fgetc to pass all text to a buffer as follows:
char* data;
data = malloc(sizeof(char) * 100);
int c;
int n = 0;
FILE* inptr = NULL;
inptr = fopen("NMR", "r");
if(NULL == fopen("NMR", "r"))
{
printf("Error: could not open file\n");
return 1;
}
for (c = fgetc(inptr); c != EOF && c != '\n'; c = fgetc(inptr))
{
data[n++] = c;
}
for (int i = 0, n = 100; i < n; i++)
{
printf ("%c", data[i]);
}
printf("\n");
and then print the buffer to the screen afterwards. However, I am only looking to pass part of the textfile to the buffer, namely:
13.69 (s, 1H),
So this means I want fgetc to stop after ','. However, this means the that the text will stop at 13.69 (s, and not 13.69 (s, 1H),
Is there a way around this? I have also experimented with fgets and then using strstr as follows:
char needle[4] = ")";
char* ret;
ret = strstr(data, needle);
printf("The substring is: %s\n", ret);
However, the output from this is:
), 11.09 (s, 1H)
thus giving me the rest of the string which I do not want. It's an interesting one and if anyone has any tips it would be much appreciated!
If you know that the closing parenthesis is the last character you want, you can use that as your stopping point in the fgetc() loop:
char data[100]; //No need to dynamically allocate if we know the size at compile time
int c;
int n = 0;
FILE* inptr = NULL;
inptr = fopen("NMR", "r");
if(inptr == NULL) //We want to check the value of the file we just opened
{ //and plan to use
printf("Error: could not open file\n");
return 1;
}
//We'll keep the original value guards (EOF and '\n') below and add two more
//to make sure we break from the loop
//We use n<98 below to make sure we can always create a null-terminated string,
//If we used 99, the 100th character might be a ')', then we have no room for a
//terminating null-char
for (c = fgetc(inptr); c != ')' && n < 98 && c != EOF && c != '\n'; c = fgetc(inptr))
{
data[n++] = c;
}
if(c != ')') //We hit EOF, \n, or ran out of space in data[]
{
printf("Error: no matching sequence found\n");
return 2;
}
data[n]=')'; //Could also write data[n]=c here, since we know it's a ')'
data[n+1]='\0'; //Add the terminating null character
printf("%s\n",data); //Since it's a properly formatted string, we can use %s
(Note that this example will handle null input characters differently from yours. If you expect null characters to be in the input stream (NMR file) then change the printf("%s",...) line back to the for loop you originally had.
Well with only one example of the format you are trying to parse it's not totally possible to give an answer, however if your input is always like this I would simply have a counter and break after the second comma.
int comma = 0;
for (c = fgetc(inptr); c != EOF && c != '\n' && c != ',' && comma < 1; c = fgetc(inptr))
{
if (data[n] = ',')
comma++;
data[n++] = c;
}
In case the characters inside the parenthesis can be more complex I would simply maintain a boolean state to know if I am actually inside or outside a parenthesis and break when I read a comma outside of it.
Simply read using fgets and store desired string in char * using sscanf-
char *new_data;
new_data=malloc(100); // allocate memory
...
fgets(data,100,inptr); // read from file but check its return
sscanf(data,"%[^)]",new_data); // store string untill ')' in new_data from data
strcat(new_data,")"); // concatenating new_data and ")"
printf("%s",new_data); // print new_data
...
free(new_data); // remember to free memory
Also you should check return of malloc though not done in my example and also close the file opened .
I have two files .csv and I need to read the whole file but it have to be filed by field. I mean, csv files are files with data separated by comma, so I cant use fgets.
I need to read all the data but I don't know how to jump to the next line.
Here is what I've done so far:
int main()
{
FILE *arq_file;
arq_file = fopen("file.csv", "r");
if(arq_file == NULL){
printf("Not possible to read the file.");
exit(0);
}
while( !feof(arq_file) ){
fscanf(arq_file, "%i %lf", &myStruct[i+1].Field1, &myStruct[i+1].Field2);
}
fclose(arq_file);
return 0;
}
It will get in a infinity loop because it never gets the next line.
How could I reach the line below the one I just read?

I think an example is better than giving you hints, this is a combination of fgets() + strtok(), there are other functions that could work for example strchr(), though it's easier this way and since I just wanted to point you in the right direction, well I did it like this
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int
main(void)
{
FILE *file;
char buffer[256];
char *pointer;
size_t line;
file = fopen("data.dat", "r");
if (file == NULL)
{
perror("fopen()");
return -1;
}
line = 0;
while ((pointer = fgets(buffer, sizeof(buffer), file)) != NULL)
{
size_t field;
char *token;
field = 0;
while ((token = strtok(pointer, ",")) != NULL)
{
printf("line %zu, field %zu -> %s\n", line, field, token);
field += 1;
pointer = NULL;
}
line += 1;
}
return 0;
}
I think it's very clear how the code works and I hope you can understand.
If the same code has to handle both data files, then you're stuck with reading the fields into a string, and subsequently converting the string into a number.
It is not clear from your description whether you need to do something special at the end of line or not — but because only one of the data lines ends with a comma, you do have to allow for fields to be separated by a comma or a newline.
Frankly, you'd probably do OK with using getchar() or equivalent; it is simple.
char buffer[4096];
char *bufend = buffer + sizeof(buffer) - 1;
char *curfld = buffer;
int c;
while ((c = getc(arq_file)) != EOF)
{
if (curfld == bufend)
…process overlong field…
else if (c == ',' || c == '\n')
{
*curfld = '\0';
process(buffer);
curfld = buffer;
}
else
*curfld++ = c;
}
if (c == EOF && curfld != buffer)
{
*curfld = '\0';
process(buffer);
}
However, if you want to go with higher level functions, then you do want to use fgets() to read lines (unless you need to worry about deviant line endings, such as DOS vs Unix vs old-style Mac (CR-only) line endings). Or use POSIX
getline() to read arbitrarily long lines. Then split the lines using strtok_r() or equivalent.
char *buffer = 0;
size_t buflen = 0;
while (getline(&buffer, &buflen, arq_file) != -1)
{
char *posn = buffer;
char *epos;
char *token;
while ((token = strtok_r(posn, ",\n", &epos)) != 0)
{
process(token);
posn = 0;
}
/* Do anything special for end of line */
}
free(buffer);
If you think you must use scanf(), then you need to use something like:
char buffer[4096];
char c;
while (fscanf(arq_file, "%4095[^,\n]%c", buffer, &c) == 2)
process(buffer);
The %4095[^,\n] scan set reads up to 4095 characters that are neither comma nor newline into buffer, and then reads the next character (which must, therefore, either be comma or newline — or conceivably EOF, but that causes problems) into c. If the last character in the file is neither comma nor newline, then you will skip the last field.
I'm very new to C and I'm still learning the basics. I'm creating an application that reads in a text file and breaks down the words individually. My intention will be to count the amount of times each word occurs.
Anyway, the last do-while loop in the code below executes fine, and then crashes. This loop prints memory address to this word (pointer) and then prints the word. It accomplishes this fine, and then crashes on the last iteration. My intention is to push this memory address into a singly linked list, albeit once it's stopped crashing.
Also, just a quick mention regarding the array sizes below; I yet figured out how to set the correct size needed to hold the word character array etc because you must define the size before the array is filled, and I don't know how to do this. Hence why I've set them to 1024.
#include<stdio.h>
#include<string.h>
int main (int argc, char **argv) {
FILE * pFile;
int c;
int n = 0;
char *wp;
char wordArray[1024];
char delims[] = " "; // delims spaces in the word array.
char *result = NULL;
result = strtok(wordArray, delims);
char holder[1024];
pFile=fopen (argv[1],"r");
if (pFile == NULL) perror ("Error opening file");
else {
do {
c = fgetc (pFile);
wordArray[n] = c;
n++;
} while (c != EOF);
n = 0;
fclose (pFile);
do {
result = strtok(NULL, delims);
holder[n] = *result; // holder stores the value of 'result', which should be a word.
wp = &holder[n]; // wp points to the address of 'holder' which holds the 'result'.
n++;
printf("Pointer value = %d\n", wp); // Prints the address of holder.
printf("Result is \"%s\"\n", result); // Prints the 'result' which is a word from the array.
//sl_push_front(&wp); // Push address onto stack.
} while (result != NULL);
}
return 0;
}
Please ignore the bad program structure, as I mentioned, I'm new to this!
Thanks
As others have pointed out, your second loop attempts to dereference result before you check for it being NULL. Restructure your code as follows:
result = strtok( wordArray, delims ); // do this *after* you have read data into
// wordArray
while( result != NULL )
{
holder[n] = *result;
...
result = strtok( NULL, delims );
}
Although...
You're attempting to read the entire contents of the file into memory before breaking it up into words; that's not going to work for files bigger than the size of your buffer (currently 1K). If I may make a suggestion, change your code such that you're reading individual words as you go. Here's an example that breaks the input stream up into words delimited by whitespace (blanks, newlines, tabs, etc.) and punctuation (period, comma, etc.):
#include <stdio.h>
#include <ctype.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
char buffer[1024];
int c;
size_t n = 0;
FILE *input = stdin;
if( argc > 1 )
{
input = fopen( argv[1], "r");
if (!input)
input = stdin;
}
while(( c = fgetc(input)) != EOF )
{
if (isspace(c) || ispunct(c))
{
if (n > 0)
{
buffer[n] = 0;
printf("read word %s\n", buffer);
n = 0;
}
}
else
{
buffer[n++] = c;
}
}
if (n > 0)
{
buffer[n] = 0;
printf("read word %s\n", buffer);
}
fclose(input);
return 0;
}
No warranties express or implied (having pounded this out before 7:00 a.m.). But it should give you a flavor of how to parse a file as you go. If nothing else, it avoids using strtok, which is not the greatest of tools for parsing input. You should be able to adapt this general structure to your code. For best results, you should abstract that out into its own function:
int getNextWord(FILE *stream, char *buf, size_t bufsize)
{
int c;
size_t n = 0;
while(( c = fgetc(input)) != EOF && n < bufsize)
{
if (isspace(c) || ispunct(c))
{
if (n > 0)
{
buf[n] = 0;
n = 0;
}
}
else
{
buffer[n++] = c;
}
}
if (n > 0)
{
buffer[n] = 0;
printf("read word %s\n", buffer);
}
if (n == 0)
return 0;
else
return 1;
}
and you would call it like
void foo(void)
{
char word[SOME_SIZE];
...
while (getNextWord(inFile, word, sizeof word))
{
do_something_with(word);
}
...
}
If you expect in your do...while code, that result could be null (this is the condition for loop break), how do you think this code-line:
holder[n] = *result;
must work? It seems to me, that it is the reason for crashing in your program.
Change do while loop to while
use
while (condition)
{
}
instead of
do {
}while(condition)
It is crashing because you are trying to derefrance a NULL pointer result in do while loop.
I work mostly with Objective-C and was just looking at your question for fun, but I may have a solution.
Before setting n=0; after your first do-while loop, create another variable called totalWords and set it equal to n, totalWords can be declared anywhere within the file (except within one of the do-while loops), but can be defined at the top to the else block since its lifetime is short:
totalWords = n;
then you can set n back to zero:
n = 0;
Your conditional for the final do-while loop should then say:
...
} while (n <= ++totalWords);
The logic behind the application will thus say, count the words in the file (there are n words, which is the totalWords in the file). When program prints the results to the console, it will run the second do-while loop, which will run until n is one result past the value of totalWords (this ensures that you print the final word).
Alternately, it is better practice and clearer for other programmers to use a loop and a half:
do {
result = strtok(NULL, delims);
holder[n] = *result;
wp = &holder[n];
printf("Pointer value = %d\n", wp);
printf("Result is \"%s\"\n", result);
//sl_push_front(&wp); // Push address onto stack.
if (n == totalWords) break; // This forces the program to exit the do-while after we have printed the last word
n++; // We only need to increment if we have not reached the last word
// if our logic is bad, we will enter an infinite loop, which will tell us while testing that our logic is bad.
} while (true);
I have an input file I need to extract words from. The words can only contain letters and numbers so anything else will be treated as a delimiter. I tried fscanf,fgets+sscanf and strtok but nothing seems to work.
while(!feof(file))
{
fscanf(file,"%s",string);
printf("%s\n",string);
}
Above one clearly doesn't work because it doesn't use any delimiters so I replaced the line with this:
fscanf(file,"%[A-z]",string);
It reads the first word fine but the file pointer keeps rewinding so it reads the first word over and over.
So I used fgets to read the first line and use sscanf:
sscanf(line,"%[A-z]%n,word,len);
line+=len;
This one doesn't work either because whatever I try I can't move the pointer to the right place. I tried strtok but I can't find how to set delimitters
while(p != NULL) {
printf("%s\n", p);
p = strtok(NULL, " ");
This one obviously take blank character as a delimitter but I have literally 100s of delimitters.
Am I missing something here becasue extracting words from a file seemed a simple concept at first but nothing I try really works?
Consider building a minimal lexer. When in state word it would remain in it as long as it sees letters and numbers. It would switch to state delimiter when encountering something else. Then it could do an exact opposite in the state delimiter.
Here's an example of a simple state machine which might be helpful. For the sake of brevity it works only with digits. echo "2341,452(42 555" | ./main will print each number in a separate line. It's not a lexer but the idea of switching between states is quite similar.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
int main() {
static const int WORD = 1, DELIM = 2, BUFLEN = 1024;
int state = WORD, ptr = 0;
char buffer[BUFLEN], *digits = "1234567890";
while ((c = getchar()) != EOF) {
if (strchr(digits, c)) {
if (WORD == state) {
buffer[ptr++] = c;
} else {
buffer[0] = c;
ptr = 1;
}
state = WORD;
} else {
if (WORD == state) {
buffer[ptr] = '\0';
printf("%s\n", buffer);
}
state = DELIM;
}
}

If the number of states increases you can consider replacing if statements checking the current state with switch blocks. The performance can be increased by replacing getchar with reading a whole block of the input to a temporary buffer and iterating through it.
In case of having to deal with a more complex input file format you can use lexical analysers generators such as flex. They can do the job of defining state transitions and other parts of lexer generation for you.
Several points:
First of all, do not use feof(file) as your loop condition; feof won't return true until after you attempt to read past the end of the file, so your loop will execute once too often.
Second, you mentioned this:
fscanf(file,"%[A-z]",string);
It reads the first word fine but the file pointer keeps rewinding so it reads the first word over and over.
That's not quite what's happening; if the next character in the stream doesn't match the format specifier, scanf returns without having read anything, and string is unmodified.
Here's a simple, if inelegant, method: it reads one character at a time from the input file, checks to see if it's either an alpha or a digit, and if it is, adds it to a string.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <ctype.h>
int get_next_word(FILE *file, char *word, size_t wordSize)
{
size_t i = 0;
int c;
/**
* Skip over any non-alphanumeric characters
*/
while ((c = fgetc(file)) != EOF && !isalnum(c))
; // empty loop
if (c != EOF)
word[i++] = c;
/**
* Read up to the next non-alphanumeric character and
* store it to word
*/
while ((c = fgetc(file)) != EOF && i < (wordSize - 1) && isalnum(c))
{
word[i++] = c;
}
word[i] = 0;
return c != EOF;
}
int main(void)
{
char word[SIZE]; // where SIZE is large enough to handle expected inputs
FILE *file;
...
while (get_next_word(file, word, sizeof word))
// do something with word
...
}
I would use:
FILE *file;
char string[200];
while(fscanf(file, "%*[^A-Za-z]"), fscanf(file, "%199[a-zA-Z]", string) > 0) {
/* do something with string... */
}
This skips over non-letters and then reads a string of up to 199 letters. The only oddness is that if you have any 'words' that are longer than 199 letters they'll be split up into multiple words, but you need the limit to avoid a buffer overflow...
What are your delimiters? The second argument to strtok should be a string containing your delimiters, and the first should be a pointer to your string the first time round then NULL afterwards:
char * p = strtok(line, ","); // assuming a , delimiter
printf("%s\n", p);
while(p)
{
p = strtok(NULL, ",");
printf("%S\n", p);
}
