i have this data..but how to sort the data in descending order together with the examid?

examid total
1: 25
2: 20
3: 46

Till what have you got to? I mean paste in the program that you have worked on until now.

I have like this...but i have a problem..to sort it descending together..examis and total. Can anybody help me?.........

#include <iostream>   // std::cout
#include <fstream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <string>    // std::string
#include <vector>    // std::vector<>
#include <algorithm> //std::for each()
using namespace std; // import "std" namespace into global namespace

struct exam
{
int examid;
vector <int> total;
};
	int main() 
	{
	ifstream stream1("STA83SOLUTION.txt");
		if ( !stream1.is_open())
		{
		cout << "Tak Buka" << endl;
		} 
			else 
			{
			cout << "Fail Di buka....." << endl;
			}
	vector <exam> exams;
	exam aExam;
    int tempExamID;
    int tempTotal;
    stream1 >> tempExamID >> tempTotal;
    aExam.examid = tempExamID;
    aExam.total.push_back(tempTotal); // add this exam code to current student's vector of exam codes
    while (stream1 >> tempExamID >> tempTotal)
    {
        if(tempExamID != aExam.examid)
        {
        exams.push_back(aExam); // no more exam codes for this student.  Add aStudent to students vector
        aExam.total.clear();
        aExam.examid = tempExamID;
        }
        aExam.total.push_back(tempTotal); // add this exam code to current student's vector of exam codes
    }
    exams.push_back(aExam); // no more exam codes for this student.  Add aStudent to students vector
    stream1.close(); // We have read the entire file, so time to close it.
{
	ofstream myfile;
	myfile.open("411.txt");
	

	if (myfile.is_open())
	{
		for (size_t i = 0; i < exams.size(); i++) 
		{
			for (size_t j = 0; j<exams.at(i).total.size(); j++) 
			{
		cout<<"\n"<<i+1<<":"<<" "<< exams.at (i).total.at(j)<<"\t"; // output list of exam codes for this student
	  		}
		}
	}				
cin.get();
return 0;
}
}

where's the code to do sorting just the total?

at the time you swap the totals, you can swap the examid's also, i think that should work. what say?

this,,,but how to take together the 2 arrays which i only sort the total only..

if (exams.at (i).total.at(j+1)<exams.at (i).total.at(j))
{
temp=exams.at(i).total.at();
exams.at(i).total.at()=exams.at(i).total.at()+1;
exams.at(i).total.at()+1=temp;	}

i edited my post later, just read the last line again. when you swap the total, swap the exam id's as well. in short you will swap the entire structures and not just the totals.

this is some thing i designed for my tutorial .. this uses quick sort, insertion, bubble and flag bubble to sort numbers ... you can select one of them and design your code.. i think this code will you but ,, if you have any problem you can contact me.. any way the code here seems to be a bit too much for what you are expecting but .. you will get to know alot about the sorting mechanisms used

thank you so much chandra rajat and localp...I will try try to do your suggestions.

just pasting too much code is not going to help anyone, sometimes it can even confuse the person. It's better to give as much info as is asked.

And also quoting it wont help anyone and as you can see the guy just joined the site so there is no way that he can know everything

And also quoting it wont help anyone and as you can see the guy just joined the site so there is no way that he can know everything

On the quoting part: agreed.

On the new guy excuse: everyone who posts anything here, has to do it in an inputfield. On the background of every inputfield on daniweb, you can read about [code]

[/code] tags (the gray text). The codetags are also explained in the rules, and in a sticky topic on the top of the thread list. So even if someone is a new user, they could know about code-tags with a little effort.

I won't complain about it, if it's someone's first posts but I always give them a link to one of the sticky's so that the next post will be better. If the poster uses code-tags the chance that they will get help will increase, so it's also in their own benefit ;)

thanx nike_e .. for the helpful links provided . most of the members here provide good solutions to problems but most of them are for the sake of being here. i have seen some giving false explanation to questions posted, this will mislead the person. i have seen some members logging in and writing a reply saying that "the question is not clear can you describe your question" but at most times the question is clear and it seems that the member don't understand it .

if a person is unaware of any posting rules in this site, that is a weakness of the site it self. the site should make sure that all members get to know the rules well. and i agree with nike_e ..

i am new to this site and i didn't know its rules, but what i wanted to do is to help that person .. any way i am sorry for what i have done , i decided to move out from this site and remove all links that i have included in my company web sites and also unsubscribe form all threads as well .. ( i hope this would help )

good luck all !
