“On my honor, as student at Sir Syed CASE Institute Islamabad, I have neither given nor
received unauthorized assistance on this academic work.”
Task No. 1:
Basic File Operations:
Create a C++ program that reads data from a text file named
"input.txt" and writes
it to another file named "output.txt". Ensure that the program
handles the file
opening and closing operations properly.
Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
ifstream inputFile("input.txt"); // Open input file for reading
ofstream outputFile("output.txt"); // Open output file for writing
// Check if input file was opened successfully
if (!inputFile.is_open())
{
cerr << "Failed to open input.txt" << std::endl;
return 1;
}
// Check if output file was opened successfully
if (!outputFile.is_open())
{
cerr << "Failed to open output.txt" << std::endl;
return 1;
}
string line;
// Read from input file line by line and write to output file
while (getline(inputFile, line))
{
outputFile << line << endl;
}
// Close the files
inputFile.close();
outputFile.close();
cout << "File has been copied successfully." << endl;
return 0;
}
Task no. 2:
File Appending:
Write a C++ program to open a file named "log.txt" in append mode.
Allow the
user to input log messages and append each message to the file along
with a
timestamp. Make sure to handle errors gracefully.
Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
#include <ctime>
using namespace std;
string getCurrentTimestamp()
{
time_t now = time(0);
tm *ltm = localtime(&now);
char buffer[20];
snprintf(buffer, sizeof(buffer), "%04d-%02d-%02d %02d:%02d:%02d",
ltm->tm_year + 1900, ltm->tm_mon + 1, ltm->tm_mday,
ltm->tm_hour, ltm->tm_min, ltm->tm_sec);
return string(buffer);
}
int main()
{
ofstream logFile("log.txt",ios::app); // Open log.txt in append mode
// Check if log file was opened successfully
if (!logFile.is_open()) {
cerr << "Failed to open log.txt" << endl;
return 1;
}
string logMessage;
cout << "Enter log message (type 'exit' to quit): ";
while (getline(cin, logMessage)) {
if (logMessage == "exit") {
break;
}
string timestamp = getCurrentTimestamp();
logFile << "[" << timestamp << "] " << logMessage <<endl;
cout << "Enter log message (type 'exit' to quit): ";
}
// Close the log file
logFile.close();
cout << "Log file has been updated successfully." <<endl;
return 0;
}
Task No. 3:
Record Management:
Develop a C++ program to manage a student database using a file.
The program
should allow users to add new student records, display all records,
and search for
a student by their roll number. The data should be stored in a file
named
"students.dat.”
Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <vector>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
struct Student {
int rollNumber;
char name[50];
int age;
char course[50];
};
void addStudent();
void displayAllStudents();
void searchStudentByRollNumber();
int main() {
int choice;
do {
cout << "Student Database Management System" << endl;
cout << "1. Add New Student" << endl;
cout << "2. Display All Students" << endl;
cout << "3. Search Student by Roll Number" << endl;
cout << "4. Exit" << endl;
cout << "Enter your choice: ";
cin >> choice;
switch (choice) {
case 1:
addStudent();
break;
case 2:
displayAllStudents();
break;
case 3:
searchStudentByRollNumber();
break;
case 4:
cout << "Exiting..." << endl;
break;
default:
cout << "Invalid choice! Please try again." << endl;
}
} while (choice != 4);
return 0;
}
void addStudent() {
Student student;
cout << "Enter Roll Number: ";
cin >> student.rollNumber;
cin.ignore(); // Clear the newline character from the buffer
cout << "Enter Name: ";
cin.getline(student.name, 50);
cout << "Enter Age: ";
cin >> student.age;
cin.ignore(); // Clear the newline character from the buffer
cout << "Enter Course: ";
cin.getline(student.course, 50);
ofstream file("students.dat", ios::binary | ios::app);
if (!file) {
cerr << "Failed to open students.dat" << endl;
return;
}
file.write(reinterpret_cast<char*>(&student), sizeof(student));
file.close();
cout << "Student record added successfully!" << endl;
}
void displayAllStudents() {
Student student;
ifstream file("students.dat", ios::binary);
if (!file) {
cerr << "Failed to open students.dat" << endl;
return;
}
while (file.read(reinterpret_cast<char*>(&student), sizeof(student)))
{
cout << "Roll Number: " << student.rollNumber << endl;
cout << "Name: " << student.name << endl;
cout << "Age: " << student.age << endl;
cout << "Course: " << student.course << endl;
cout << "-----------------------" << endl;
}
file.close();
}
void searchStudentByRollNumber() {
int rollNumber;
Student student;
bool found = false;
cout << "Enter Roll Number to search: ";
cin >> rollNumber;
ifstream file("students.dat", ios::binary);
if (!file) {
cerr << "Failed to open students.dat" << endl;
return;
}
while (file.read(reinterpret_cast<char*>(&student), sizeof(student)))
{
if (student.rollNumber == rollNumber) {
cout << "Roll Number: " << student.rollNumber << endl;
cout << "Name: " << student.name << endl;
cout << "Age: " << student.age << endl;
cout << "Course: " << student.course << endl;
found = true;
break;
}
}
if (!found) {
cout << "Student with Roll Number " << rollNumber << " not
found." << endl;
}
file.close();
}
