searching for a word in txt and copying a line from it to another txt

searching for a word in txt and copying a line from it to another txt

• Chase Mosher

  sorry I tried editing my post but it keeps giving me errors

  anyway here's my code

  it doesn't seem to work

  I was thinking about reading it into a string first

  #include <fstream>

  #include <iostream>

  #include <string>

  using namespace std;

  void main()

  {

  string c;

  ifstream reads("R0_1st.txt");

  reads.seekg(ios::beg);

  reads.unsetf(ios::skipws);

  reads>>c;

  cout<<c;

  }

  You can use getline function to read each line of a text file

  Sorry again...

  can someone please tell me why it won't let me edit my post !!

  anyway here's the new code

  it works but i need to add to that, i want it to only display the line if this string is found "Adiabatic Efficiency = 0.729592"

  how do i do that

  #include <fstream>

  #include <iostream>

  #include <string>

  using namespace std;

  void main()

  {

  string c;

  ifstream reads("R0_1st.txt");

  reads.seekg(ios::beg);

  reads.unsetf(ios::skipws);

  while(!reads.eof())

  {

  getline (reads,c);

  cout<<c<<endl;

  }

  }
