I'm having difficulties with a particular piece of code I'm learning from "Programming Principles And Practice Using C++".
I can't get an output from a loop refering to a vector. Am using std_lib_facilities and stdafx because the book and MVS told me so.
#include "stdafx.h"
#include "../../std_lib_facilities.h"
int main()
{
vector<string>words;
for(string temp; cin>>temp; )
words.push_back(temp);
cout << "Number of words: " << words.size() << '\n';
}
This will produce nothing. I'll get the prompt, type in some words, then enter, then nothing.
Tried some variations I got here and from other websites as well, such as:
//here i tried the libraries the guy used in his code
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <vector>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
cout << "Please enter a series of words followed by End-of-File: ";
vector<string> words;
string word;
string disliked = "Broccoli";
while (cin >> word)
words.push_back(word);
cout << "\nNumber of words: " << words.size() << endl;
// cycle through all strings in vector
for (int i = 0; i < words.size(); ++i)
{
if (words[i] != disliked)
cout << words[i] << endl;
else
cout << "BLEEP!\n";
}
return 0;
}
Still nothing.
After trying some things, by elimination I'm pretty certain the problem is with the loop-to-vector communication, because all of these work fine:
int main()
{
vector<string>words = { "hi" };
words.push_back("hello");
cout << words[1] << "\n"; // this will print hello
for (int i = 0; i < words.size();++i) {
cout << words[i] << "\n"; // this will print out all elements
// inside vector words, ( hi, hello)
}
cout << words.size();// this will print out number 2
for (string temp; cin >> temp;) {
words.push_back(temp);
}
cout << words.size();// this won't do anything after i type in some
// words; shouldn't it increase the size of the
// vector?
}
Neither will this alone:
int main()
{
vector<string>words = { "hi" };
for (string temp; cin >> temp;) {
words.push_back(temp);
}
cout << words.size();
}
What am I missing, please? Thank you in advance.
