Why doesn't this for-loop execute?
- by Maulrus
I'm writing a program for an exercise that will read data from a file and format it to be readable. So far, I have a bit of code that will separate a header from the data that goes under it. Here it is:
int main() {
ifstream in("records.txt");
ofstream out("formatted_records.txt");
vector<string> temp;
vector<string> headers;
for (int i = 0; getline(in,temp[i]); ++i) {
static int k = -1;
if (str_isalpha(temp[i])) {
headers[++k] = temp[i];
temp.erase(temp.begin() + i);
}
else {
temp[i] += "," + headers[k];
}
}
}
(str_isalpha() is just a function that applies isalpha() to every character in a string.) Now, the for-loop in this program doesn't execute, and I can't figure out why. Does anybody know?
