I have the following .txt file:
23 43 -10
65 1 -1
-3 3 3
400 401 -389
21 6 -6
0 0 0
I need to write a program that will read data from the file until it reads the line with three 0's.
I then need to write a function that accepts the three integer numbers and returns the number closest to 0. If two or three values are the same distance from 0 return the first number that is closest to 0.
This is what I have so far:
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <cmath>
using namespace std;
int findClosest(int, int, int);
int main()
{
ifstream fin;
infile.open("LAB5DATA.TXT");
int a, b, c;
while (infile >> a >> b >> c && a + b + c != 0)
{
int closest = findClosest(a, b, c);
cout << closest << endl;
}
infile.close();
return 0;
}
int findClosest(int a, int b, int c)
{
int differenceA = abs(a - 0);
int differenceB = abs(b - 0);
int differenceC = abs(c - 0);
int closest = differenceA;
if (differenceB < closest)
closest = differenceB;
if (differenceC < closest)
closest = differenceC;
return closest;
}
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I would fix your findClosest
function by making a couple of changes. First off, define a function that takes the absolute of an integer so that you can compare the differences more cleanly.
Then from there, simply return the minimum of the 3 differences.
Edited:
int findClosest(int a, int b, int c)
{
int closest = a;
if (abs(b) < abs(a)) closest = b;
if (abs(c) < abs(b)) closest = c;
return closest;
}
