Ok.. this is wiered.. this code either crashes or exits when it shouldn't. I really have not a clue what the error is. It loads and process a .csv file and example of such would be below (although generally the files I am loading are a couple of tousands of times longer[numbers more]):

'Y0-1','Y1-1','Y2-1','Y0-2','Y1-2','Y2-2','Y0-3','Y1-3','Y2-3'
-996,-589,-181,194,414,-585,-186,194,413
-997,-587,-186,192,414,-585,-186,194,413

The name I gave to the file this program loads is "Ilya-tipical.csv" .

/*
 *
 * SSI2.cpp
 *
 * Data Description:
 *
 *    The data consists of a series of runs, one run per file. A data
 *    run consists of a number of bands, where the minimum number of
 *    bands is 3 and the maximum envisioned is currently thirty but
 *    could grow. Each band consists of three traces.  Each trace consists of a circular 
 
 *    scan of a measured height for a given angular position.  Thus the three bands map 
 *    alpha, beta,  gamma in conventional polar notation, the height varibale represents 
 *    the difference of height of this point to radius (1000nm). Phi represents phi and 
 *	  theta represents theta.  The set of bands represents incremental
 *    scans where the middle trace (if the number of traces is odd) or the
 *    middle 2 tracess (if the number of traces is even) represent the
 *    equatorial scan(s) for the run.
 *
 *    The data are represented by rows of comma-delimited ASCII integers 
 *    which can be positive or negative.  Each row represents one angular
 *    position for all the bands.  The first row of the file is an ASCII
 *    comma-delimited description of the data.  Each descriptor is of the
 *    form 'Ya-b', where a is the trace identifier , , starting with 0, and b
 *    is the band identifier (1, 2 or 3). Identifiers are not used.
 *

that is wierd.

P.S.: Is that actually ture.. I doubt that though.............. It doesn't have any of such context.

that is wierd.

Sorry bra I was just trying to get her she dosent have POP-UP pm enabled
and is this your homework your posting just curious

I'm confused?

nope.. actually this is my internship.. it is at GA and it is really fun for the exception that sometimes my C skills aren't exactly up to speed. Also they gave me an Old mac with even older compiler to work on.. It doesn't even have modern std libs... I am more of Linux/Windows user.. oh yea.. I am below 18 hahaha...

it is like two posts just appeared... and they say they are 10 min old.........

So can anybody actually help me with my problem?
Ilya

Sorry, Valmian. I can't help you here. Perhaps someone else can?

And, no, you don't have to be 18+ to post on the forums. However, you do have to be 13+ to register/post to be in compliance with Bill Clinton's COPPA children's online privacy act.

my error was that I closed a file a bit to early. also my mac did not have the actuall memory to run the full file... very sad...

it had virtuall memory disabled or smthn
