I'm new to C++ and I'm trying to return a struct from a vector of structs by using 2 search criteria.
The function find_city
is returning me everything from the defined range, regardless of whether it exists inside the vector of struct.
Here's my code:
struct cityLoc
{
int hRange;
int vRange;
int cityCode;
string cityName;
};
vector<cityLoc> cl1;
// the vector has already been preloaded with data
// function to return my struct from the vector
cityLoc find_city(int hRange, int vRange)
{
for (size_t i = 0; i < cl1.size(); i++)
{
if ((cl1[i].hRange = hRange) && (cl1[i].vRange = vRange))
{
return cl1[i];
}
}
}
int main()
{
for (int i = 0; i < 8; i++)
{
for (int j = 0; j <= 8; j++)
{
cityLoc this_city;
this_city = find_city(i, j);
cout << this_city.hRange << ", " << this_city.vRange << endl;
}
}
return 0;
}
Also, aside from this question, I was previously looking into std::find_if
and didn't understand it. If I have the following code, what is the output? How do I modify it such that it returns a struct?
auto it = find_if(cl1.begin(), cl1.end(), [](cityLoc& cl) { return cl.hRange == 1; } );
You have a bug here:
if ((cl1[i].hRange = hRange) && (cl1[i].vRange = vRange))
Those =
are assignments, not comparisons! Please enable compiler warnings and you won't be hurt by such obvious typos in future.
std::find_if
will return the iterator to the found struct entry if it is successful, std::vector::end()
otherwise. So, you should first validate the returning iterator if it is valid or not.
For example:
auto it = std::find_if( cl1.begin(), cl1.end(),
[](const cityLoc& cl) { return cl.hRange == 1; } );
if ( it == cl1.end() )
{
// ERROR: Not found! Return error code etc.
return -1;
}
// And, if found, process it here...
std::cout << it->hRange << '\n';
std::cout << it->vRange << '\n';
The criteria (predicate) part in std::find_if
is a lambda expression .
