Beginner needs help reading from .txt file! | Bytes (1) 13 New Member

Hi,

I have just started using C++ (Borland compiler) and I want to read the data in a .txt-file. The txt file looks like this:

Arg 2 12.87
His 25 7.4
His 29 6.9

I would like to put the data in a struct {string, integer, float} where the rows in the struct are the same as the rows in the file. How can I do that?
I know how to read the lines (using getline) from a txt file, but not how to extract theinteger and float numbers from the string.

Thanks for the help!

look up the functions

strtol
strtof

or the C++ way would be to verify the string data is correct and create a string stream then just use the >> operators to get int and float data.
