stack palindrome problem?

Expand Post »

I am receiving error messages for this palindrome problem. I am reading in a file and outputting the results if it is a palindrome or not using stacks. Any ideas as to why I am receiving error messages below.

Re: stack palindrome problem?

why stacks?
Heres a palindrome proggy i did for another board.

Re: stack palindrome problem?

ok lets go thru your code....

your exception classes will need default constructors or arguments passed to them.

destructor doesnt need if(s). just the delete[]s will do nicely.

throw Stack_Full_Exception();
should be
throw Stack_Full_Exception;
or
throw Stack_Full_Exception(args);
depending on available constructors. see point 1.

You cant nest other functions inside main!!!!
Thats illegal.
Your funcs to check if a palindrome is never called from main.
Fix those and repost if that dont do it.

Re: stack palindrome problem?

I have to use a stack, will make those corrections and let you know what happens.

Re: stack palindrome problem?

Okay, the problem I am having now is that once compiled and I will input the I/O file names. It will state that the file cannot be opened. Why?

Re: stack palindrome problem?

You have included cmath twice, but that's not likely to cause the problem you describe. When programs compile, but then don't run appropriately, it is harder to debug them. In this case the syntax of obtaining file names and associating them with files, etc. seem appropriate. Therefore, I would try printing the file names to the screen using cout statements to be sure they have been input appropriately. IF that doesn't work, then posting the exact output that is unexpected and/or error statements you encounter would be helpful. If that still doesn't work I'd start commenting out stuff until I got back to a bare bones program without all the fluff of try/catch etc. to confound the issue and proceed until I got the program running. Then I'd add back sections, one at time and testing each one as they are reintroduced until I tracked the problem down to a (given set of) line(s).

Re: stack palindrome problem?

okay i figured it out. the file names were different. However, when it reads in the file it only reads in the last word and checks for palindrome.

Re: stack palindrome problem?

C++ Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
string word;  //declare a single string
for(;;)  
{
  if(i.eof())  //if find EOF 
   break;    //stop
 
  i >> word;  ///else read in each word, but don't do anything with it.
}
Palindrome_mgr(word, o); //send last word read in to this function.
string word;  //declare a single string
for(;;)  
{
  if(i.eof())  //if find EOF 
   break;    //stop
			
  i >> word;  ///else read in each word, but don't do anything with it.
}
Palindrome_mgr(word, o); //send last word read in to this function.

Do you see any problem with logic in the comments I wrote?
You will do yourself a big favor by testing code as you write it, one
step at a time, and not as one big bolus.

BTW: You shouldn't be testing for eof() to break out of the loop as
it will likely cause an overread by one. But that would be then next
problem you encounter if you fix the more obvious logic problem.
