Binary search on string array and extra feature

Question

This is a program I have been working on to learn C++. It inputs a file into two different arrays (string, 2d double) than sorts, averages, adds averages to ends of 2d double array than outputs. I'm trying to implement a search (preferably binary) that finds the name matching to searchItem variable than gets the scores associated with that name to output. I have an idea of how to implement grabbing the scores. Store into a variable the element position the name was found and use that to reference the row where the right scores will be. Having trouble with the binary search as in it gives no compile errors and isn't doing anything. From what I understand the algorithm I'm using is the same as others I've seen working. Also am I on the right track with the idea I had or is there a better method? It seemed to me to be the simplest way but my experience with this language is limited. Thank you in advance.

Answer 1

When you compare two std::string objects using the equality operator, it compares the whole strings. If you're looking for "keith" and compare it to the string "keith hallmark" then it won't match.

You can use std::string::find to find a substring in a string.

Like

if (x[middle].find(searchItem) != std::string::npos)
{
    // Sub-string found
}
