1 Input and Output Outline Formatting outputs String data type Interactive inputs File manipulators CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 1 CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 2 No I/O is built into C++ instead, a library provides input stream and output stream Keyboard fstream istream executing program fstream ostream Screen <iostream> Header File Access to a library that defines 3 objects An istream object named cin (keyboard) An ostream object named cout (screen) An ostream object named cerr (screen) 3 4 1

2 Output Output in computer programming means to display literal values that contain in variables either to the screen (standard output) or to a file. Appearance of the output can be controlled through the process called formatting. Output Statement cout << Expression or Manipulator; cout << Expression or Manipulator; cout << ; or cout << Expression or Manipulator << Expression or Manipulator << ; << : insertion operator or symbol cout << directs the expression after it to the screen cout<<"hello world!!! "; cout<<"the area of the triangle is << Area; CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 5 CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 6 Header File <iostream> for a library that defines 3 objects an istream object named cin (keyboard) an ostream object named cout (screen) an ostream object named cerr (screen) Insertion Operator (<<) the insertion operator << takes 2 operands the left operand is a stream expression, such as cout the right operand is an expression of simple type, or a string, or a manipulator CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 7 CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 8 2

3 Header File for Output Object To use output object cout the header file iostream must be included in the source program and directive using for referencing cout, i.e., #include <iostream> Example #include < iostream > /* This program computes the sum of two numbers. */ int main(void) double Number1, Number2, Sum; cout << "Enter two numbers --> "; cin >> Number1 >> Number2; Sum = Number1 + Number2; cout<< "The sum of " << Number1 << " and " << Number2 << " is "<< Sum; cin.get(); cin.get(); return 0; CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 9 CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 10 Output Display Manipulators manipulators are used only in input and output statements endl, fixed, showpoint, setw, and setprecision are manipulators that can be used to control output format endl is use to terminate the current output line, and create blank lines in output CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 11 CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 12 3

4 Manipulators in iostream endl: terminate the output line fixed: display in decimal point format with 6 decimal places as default --.XXXXXX showpoint: display a whole number in decimal format with 6 significant digits as default XX.XXXX X.XXXXX XXXX.XX Example #include < iostream > /* This program computes the sum and product of two numbers. */ int main(void) double Number1, Number2, Sum, Product; cout << "Enter two numbers --> "; cin >> Number1 >> Number2; Sum = Number1 + Number2; Product = Number1 * Number2; cout<< "The sum of " << Number1 << " and " << Number2 << " is "<< Sum << endl; endl manipulator cout<< "The product of " << Number1 << " and " << Number2 << " is "<< Product; cin.get(); cin.get(); return 0; CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 13 CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 14 Output Display with endl Output Display with showpoint #include < iostream > /* This program computes the sum and product of two numbers. */ int main(void) double Number1, Number2, Sum, Product; cout << "Enter two numbers --> "; cin >> Number1 >> Number2; Sum = Number1 + Number2; Product = Number1 * Number2; cout<<showpoint; showpoint manipulator cout<< "The sum of " << Number1 << " and " << Number2 << " is "<< Sum << endl; cout<< "The product of " << Number1 << " and " << Number2 << " is "<< Product; cin.get(); cin.get(); return 0; CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 15 CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 16 4

5 Output Display with fixed #include < iostream > /* This program computes the sum and product of two numbers. */ int main(void) double Number1, Number2, Sum, Product; cout << "Enter two numbers --> "; cin >> Number1 >> Number2; Sum = Number1 + Number2; Product = Number1 * Number2; cout<<fixed; fixed manipulator cout<< "The sum of " << Number1 << " and " << Number2 << " is "<< Sum << endl; cout<< "The product of " << Number1 << " and " << Number2 << " is "<< Product; cin.get(); cin.get(); return 0; Manipulators in iomanip setw(n) fieldwidth specification manipulator: set the width of the next value (integer, float, string) to be printed over n columns with right justification as default The header file #include <iomanip> must be inserted into the source code to use manipulator setw(n) setw(n) affects only the very next item displayed, and is useful to align columns of output CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 17 CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 18 Output Display with setw() #include <iomanip> #include <iostream> Position #include <string> int main ( ) int mynumber = 123 ; int yournumber = 5 ; cout<<setw(10)<< Mine <<setw(10)<< Yours <<endl <<setw(10)<<mynumber <<setw(10)<<yournumber <<endl; return 0 ; Mine Yours each is displayed rightjustified and each is located in a total of 10 positions Decimal Number Outputs Decimal number specification manipulator -- setprecision(n): set ALL subsequent floating-point outputs to be displayed with n decimal places of accuracy provided that fixed manipulator has been previously specified. Default is usually 6. CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 19 CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 20 5

6 iomanip Manipulators Scientific: set ALL subsequent floating point outputs to be displayed in scientific notation form. This is the default. left: set ALL subsequent outputs to leftjustified within the printing field. right: set ALL subsequent outputs to right-justified within the printing field. This is the default. Output Display with setprecision() #include <iomanip> #include <iostream> int main ( ) float mynumber = ; float yournumber = ; cout<<fixed<<showpoint <<setprecision(4); cout<< Numbers are: <<endl <<setw(10)<<mynumber<<endl <<setw(10)<<yournumber <<endl; return 0 ; Numbers are: each is displayed right-justified and rounded if necessary and each is located in a total of 10 positions with 4 places after the decimal point CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 21 CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 22 File Manipulators Examples Header File Manipulator Argument Type Effect <iostream> endl none terminates <iostream> showpoint none <iostream> fixed none <iomanip> setw(n) int <iomanip> setprecision(n) int displays decimal point suppresses scientific notation sets fieldwidth to n positions sets precision to n digits int INum1, INum2; double DNum; INum1=123; INum2=4567; DNum=12.34; Statement Output cout<<setw(4)<<inum1 <<setw(6)<<inum2; cout<<setw(20)<<"number 1 is" <<setw(4)<<inum1<<'\n' <<setw(10)<<"number 2 is" <<setw(2)<<inum2; cout<<setw(5)<<dnumber<<endl <<setw(7)<<dnumber<<endl <<setw(2)<<dnumber<<endl Number 1 is 123 Number 2 is CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 23 CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 24 6

8 Extraction Operator(>>) Variable cin is predefined to denote an input stream from the standard input device(the keyboard) The extraction operator >> called get from takes 2 operands; the left operand is a stream expression, such as cin--the right operand is a variable of simple type Operator >> attempts to extract the next item from the input stream and to store its value in the right operand variable Input Input in computer programming means to copy literal values to corresponding variables either from the keyboard or from a file. Interactive input is the input obtaining from the keyboard (standard input). 29 CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 30 Input Statement cin >> Variable >> Variable >> Variable >> ; >> : extraction operator or symbol cin >> directs literal values to variables cin >> Number1; cin >> Letter1 >> Letter2 >> Amount; Header File for input Object To use input object cin the header file iostream must be included in the source prorgam and directive using for referencing cout, i.e., #include <iostream> CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 31 CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 32 8

9 Extraction Operator (>>) Variable cin is predefined to denote an input stream from the standard input device(the keyboard) The extraction operator >> called get from takes 2 operands; the left operand is a stream expression, such as cin--the right operand is a variable of simple type Operator >> attempts to extract the next item from the input stream and to store its value in the right operand variable skips over (actually reads but does not store anywhere) leading white space characters as it reads your data from the input stream (either keyboard or disk file) Whitespace Characters blanks tabs end-of-line (newline) characters The newline character is created by pressing Enter or Return at the keyboard, or by using the manipulator endl or \n in a program Types of Inputs char a single character int a literal-integer value -- 24, -30 float a literal-integer value or a literal-floatpoint value -- 24, 24.0, -24, 2.4e01 Example int INum1, INum2; double DNum1, DNum2; char Letter1, Letter2; Statement Input at Keyboard Content cin>>inum1>>inum2 INum1=123 >>Letter1>>Letter2; AB INum2=4567 Letter1=A Letter2=B cin>>dnum1>>letter1 >>DNum2>>Letter2; 123.0A4567B DNum1=123.0 DNum2= Letter1=A Letter2=B CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 35 CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 36 9

10 Reading Inputs Statement Input Content AB\n INum1=123 cin>>inum AB\n INum2=4567 >>INum2 Letter1=A AB\n >>Letter1 Letter2=B >>Letter2; AB\n AB\n cin>>dnum1 >>Letter1 >>DNum2 >>Letter2; 123.0A4567B\n 123.0A4567B\n 123.0A4567B\n 123.0A4567B\n 123.0A4567B\n DNum1=123.0 DNum2= Letter1=A Letter2=B String Data Type String is a sequence of characters enclosed in double quotes A string containing no characters is a null string string is not primitive data type The header file <string> must be included in the source code Examples:, Joe Nobody, Hello C++" CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 37 CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 38 String Declaration string LastName; string FirstName; string Name; string Message = "Hello C++"; const string ConjugateAnd = "and"; LastName = "Nobody"; N o b o d y \n FirstName = "Joe"; J o e \n Name = First + " " + LastName; cout<<name; cin<<firstname; Example #include < iostream > #include < string > int main(void) const string Blank = " "; string LastName; string FirstName, Name; cout<<"enter your lastname --> "; cin>>lastname; cout<<"enter your firstname --> "; cin>>firstname; Name = FirstName + Blank + LastName + "."; cout<<endl<<"your name is "<<Name; cin.get(); cin.get(); return 0; CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 39 CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 40 10

11 get(), getline() -- Functions Reading Character Data with the get() function cin.get(somechar) cin.get does not skip blanks Reading entire line of input including blanks with the getline() function getline(cin, inputstring); Examples string FirsrtName, LastName, Name; char MiddleIntial; char Letter1, Letter2, Letter3; Statement Input at Keyboard Content cin>>firstname >>MiddleInitial >>LastName; getline(cin,name); cin>>letter1 >>Letter2; cin.get(letter3); Joe M Nobody\n Joe M Nobody\n Joe M Nobody\n Joe M Nobody\n Joe M Nobody\n Joe M Nobody\n A B C D\n A B C D\n A B C D\n A B C D\n FirstName=Joe MiddleInitial=M LastName=Nobody Name=Joe M Nobody Letter1=A Letter2=B Letter3= CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 41 CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 42 String Input Using getline string firstname; string lastname; getline(cin, firstname); getline(cin, lastname); Results Using getline string firstname; string lastname; getline(cin, firstname); getline(cin, lastname); Suppose input stream looks like this: Joe Hernandez 23 What are the string values? Joe Hernandez 23? firstname lastname

12 ignore( ) -- Function Skipping Characters with the ignore function cin.ignore(10, \n); cin.ignore(10, 'c'); The above statements skips the next 10 input characters or to skip characters until a newline character is read or a character 'c' is read. CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 45 Examples Statement Input Content \n INum1= \n INum2=4567 INum3= \n cin>>inum1>>inum2; \n cin.ignore(50,\n); \n \n cin>>inum3; \n \n cin.ignore(4,\n); cin>>letter1 >>Letter2; cin.ignore(100,'d'); cin>>letter3, 12345ABCDEF\n 12345ABCDEF\n 12345ABCDEF\n 12345ABCDEF\n 12345ABCDEF\n 12345ABCDEF\n Letter1=5 Letter2=A Letter3=E CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 46 Interactive I/O In an interactive program the user enters information while the program is executing Before the user enters data, a prompt should be provided to explain what type of information should be entered After the user enters data, the value of the data should be printed out for verification. This is called echo printing that way, the user will have the opportunity to check for erroneous data Prompting for Interactive I/O // prompt cout << Enter part number : << endl; cin >> partnumber ; // prompt cout << Enter quantity ordered : << endl; cin >> quantity; // prompt cout << Enter unit price : << endl; cin >> unitprice; // calculate totalprice = quantity * unitprice; // echo the input cout << Part # << partnumber << endl; cout << Quantity: << quantity << endl; cout << Unit Cost: $ << setprecision(2) << unitprice << endl; // output cout << Total Cost: $ << totalprice << endl;

13 Diskette Files for I/O #include <fstream> input data disk file A:\myInfile.dat your variable (of type fstream) executing program your variable (of type fstream) output data disk file A:\myOut.dat To Use Disk I/O, you must Access use #include <fstream> Choose valid identifiers for your filestreams and declare them Open the files and associate them with disk names Use your filestream identifiers in your I/O statements (using >> and <<, manipulators, get, ignore) Close the files Files and Streams Operating files in C++ requires the following steps: 1. Including the <fstream> header file 2. Declare a file variable of type fstream that will be associated with the actual or physical file 3. Opening the file connecting the file variable to the actual file 4. Operations using the file name (i.e., read - >> and write - <<) 5. Closing the file Example Writing to a file 1. #include <fstream> 2. fstream outfile; 3. outfile.open( a:\\prog1.txt",ios::out); 4. outfile<<data; 5. outfile.close(); CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 51 CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 52 13

14 Example ios -- Arguments Reading from a file 1. #include <fstream> 2. fstream infile; 3. infile.open( a:\\prog1.txt",ios::in); 4. infile<<data; 5. infile.close(); arguments: ios::in ios::out ios::app input(already exist) output(creates a new file) append(appends to the end of existing file) CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 53 CS 1410 Comp Sci with C++ Input and Output 54 Example Using Disk I/O #include <fstream> int main() fstream myinfile, myoutfile; //declarations //open file to read myinfile.open( A:\\myIn.dat,ios::in); //open file to write myoutfile.open( A:\\myOut.dat,ios::out); // close files myinfile.close( ); myoutfile.close( ); return 0; What does opening a file do? associates the C++ identifier for your file with the physical (disk) name for the file if the input file does not exist on disk, open is not successful if the output file does not exist on disk, a new file with that name is created if the output file already exists, it is erased places a file reading marker at the very beginning of the file, pointing to the first character in it

15 Stream Fail State when a stream enters the fail state, further I/O operations using that stream have no effect at all. But the computer does not automatically halt the program or give any error message possible reasons for entering fail state include: invalid input data (often the wrong type) opening an input file that doesn t exist opening an output file on a diskette that is already full or is write-protected 57 15
