从文本文件读取输入并将其提取-C ++

Question

I'm trying to read a text file line by line and extract the data into my program. Essentially, the C++ program will be reading an input file already made that is in this format:

     Republican Senator John McMahon
     Democrat Mayor Steven Markel
     Republican Judge Matt Stevens
     Democrat Senator Anthony Quizitano
     S R
     M D
     J R
     ...
     ..
     ..

The format is basically first 3 lines include the Party, Position, and Name and the next following lines indicate the "results" which are in the form of:

[first letter of position] [party voted for]

So, for example if you see SR, that means 1 vote for a Senator, and it goes to the Republican candidate.

Here's what I have so far:

            #include<fstream>
            int main()
            {
            std::ifstream input("file.txt");
            }

It's my understanding that this will allow me to input the file, and go through it line by line, but I'm not sure how I should proceed to achieve this from here...any help?

Thanks!

Answer 1

Here is, for fun and glory, an implementation based on Boost Spirit. I added more fake vote input, just so there could be something to display.

• I wasn't sure whether there is an 1:1 relation between candidates and votes (I'm not a US citizen, and I don't know whether the candidates listed would be voting or being voted for). So I decided to just use fake data.
  

   const std::string input = "Republican Senator John McMahon\\n" "Democrat Senator Anthony Quizitano\\n" "SR\\n" "SR\\n" "SR\\n" "Democrat Mayor Steven Markel\\n" "Republican Judge Matt Stevens\\n" "MD\\n" "JR\\n" "SR\\n" "SR\\n"; 

  The code however can be used for both purposes.

• I made it unimportant in what order the input appears.
• Optionally you can assert, though, that the single letters (S,M,J) actually correspond to positions listed before that point. Enable this by uncommenting the check with posletter_check
