Hi guys how are you , hope you are ok. I have a small problem with my code. briefly my program is about chained sequence numbers which requires a user to enter sequences separated by (-1) in an input file as follow:
123 122 121
-1
45 67 89
-1
in the output file the following will be shown:
the sequence 123 122 121 is chained
the sequence 45 67 89 is not chained
( a sequence is called chained when a number is differs by one digit from the previous number )
As can be seen int input that i have to enter -1 between each sequence... that's ok. But my main problem is that i have to enter -1 also after the last entered sequence otherwise an error will be shown in the compiler. so i want to write the input like that :
123 121 123
-1
123 455 788
insted of
123 121 123
-1
123 455 788
-1
also my code should accept only positive numbers, thats ok but in my code -1 will be considred and i think that the first problem will sove this problem
Therefore, how can i fix that problem... i tried too much times but i didn't reach to any thing.... i wonder if you could help me guys.
The code is :
Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>

int firstSeq;
if ( ! ( input >> temp ) )
{
//until you here otherwise, bad file format will be handled by program termination.
cout << "File has a non-int within" << endl;
