Now you may see lvlbox[j*20+i], just change it to lvlbox[j*lvlWidth+i]. I need help with the following: 1. counting the number of characters per line while excluding the comma (or counting the commas seperately and then subtracting the total by the number of commas, whatever is easier). I also need something to count the number of lines. The reason being is I want to be able to put the number of characters in lvlWidth and the number of lines in lvlHeight. 2. what if I decide to have double digits between the commas? like 01 instead of 1. how would I be able to do that? (going back to no. 1, how could i still put it into lvlWidth, just divide the total by 2 or something?) 3. I may be getting ahead of myself, but if I were to make "-end-" the last line of the .txt file, how could I make the code understand that (while not counting -end- as another line, because I would like to put variables after -end-)? Thanks ____________ |

could you also show me how to count this?

I can't answer anything precisely because I'm too lazy. However here are some pointers. 1.) um, just count the commas? int commaCount = 0; for (int i = 0; line[i] != 0; i++) { if (line[i] == ',') commaCount ++; } The total number of numbers on a line is obviously commaCount plus one. 2) personally I would be using strtok or something http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/cstring/strtok/ split each line by commas, and then pass each sub string to some function to convert strings to numbers: http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/cstdlib/atoi/ 3) http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/cstring/strstr/ while iterating through the lines: if (strstr(line, "-end-") != 0) // "-end-" was found in the line string { ...do something different } There are a lot of other string functions too. Study them all. http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/cstring/ Or if you want to operate on proper C++ style string objects (rather than old school C arrays), you can use the methods of the String class: http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/string/string/ e.g. you might use String.find rather than strstr() http://www.cplusplus.com/refer … ng/string/find/ if (std::string(line).find("-end-") != std::string::npos) { // "-end-" was found } standard disclaimer applies that I don't really have a clue what you are doing since i didn't study it closely. ____________ :o |

You also might look for a nice C++ library that has lots more utility functions. E.g. Boost. Boost has a "split" function which could be used for splitting by commas or whatever: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/ … tring_algo.html http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/ … algo/usage.html also several different answers for splitting a line here: http://stackoverflow.com/quest … e-a-string-in-c [Edited on July 10, 2013 by DTM] ____________ :o |
