The format of each line in the file is identical, with fixed-length fields defined as follows:
Field

Field Name Starting
Col. No.
Ending
Col. No.
Field Length
1 Shipped Date 1 8 8
2 Tracking Number 12 17 6

Using this data file, write a C++ program that reads the file and produces a report listing the
shipped date, part number, first name, last name, and company name.

Explanation / Answer

I have ececuted it under codeblocks IDE:

#include <iostream>
#include<fstream>
#include<sstream>
using namespace std;
std::string line;

int main()
{
string arr[20];
int i,j,k;
ifstream myfile("C:/Users/Kanth/Desktop/babu/Placement/DataFromFile/data2.txt");

while(getline(myfile, line))
{
std::stringstream linestream(line);//to get the entire line
std::string value;
i=0;//for every line it is initiated to 0.
//for every line I am reusing the same array by printing it immediately
while(getline(linestream,value,' '))//to split line where ' ' is find
{
arr[i]=value;
i++; //array index
}

for(k=0;k<i;k++){
if(k==1) //skipping the 2nd column
;
else
cout << arr[k] << " ";
}

cout << endl;
}

return 0;
}
