How to read matrix from text file in QT

[Abraão Állysson]

Hello, I was wondering how would the code below into QT

/*
content a MATRIX.txt
1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9 */



#include <iostream>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <iomanip>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;


int main()
{

// declaring a POINTER FOR MATRIX to be dynamically allocated
char **m;
//char matriz[3][5];


//by declaring file handle variable to a txt file
ifstream txtFile;
int l,c,i,j;

//READ FILE.txt
txtFile.open("MATRIX.txt");



//read that LINE e COLUMN the matrix ;
txtFile >> l >> c;

//allocate a memory for matrix
m = (char **) malloc( l * sizeof(char *) );
for(int nl=0;nl<l;nl++){
m[nl]=(char *) malloc(c*sizeof(char *));
}

//open content a FILE.txt
for ( i=0; i<l; i++)
{

for(j=0; j<c; j++)
{
txtFile >> m[i][j];

}

}

cout << "the Matrix read file have LINE and COLUMN: \t " << l<< "X" <<c;
cout << "\n content of the matrix in the file: "<<endl;
for (int i=0;i<l;i++)
{

for(int j=0;j<c;j++)
{
cout << m[i][j];

}
printf("\n");
}




//fecha arquvivo
txtFile.close();

system("pause");

}

In the first place, your file "MATRIX.TXT" does not have the structure you are trying to read. There is no count of rows (l) and columns (c) at the top of the file. In the second place, you are allocating your internal matrix data structure with char type, not int type, so the ifstream:: operator>>() will not read it correctly. Your m[i][j] values will be characters (e.g. '1', '2', etc.), not integers (1, 2, 3 ...). Finally, you have a memory leak, because you don't delete the arrays you have malloc'ed.

To translate the C code to C++ and Qt, you would use QTextStream to replace ifstream. You could use QVector (QVector<int>) to replace your array of arrays structure:

QTextStream  textFile( "matrix.txt", QIODevice::ReadOnly | QIODevice::Text );
    int l;
    int c;
 
    textFile >> l >> c;  // Assumes you fix your file so it contains #rows and #columns on the first line
    QVector<int> matrix( l * c, 0 );
 
    for ( int nl = 0; nl < l; ++nl )
    {
      for ( int nc = 0; nc < c; ++nc )
      {
         textFile >>matrix[ nc + nl * c ];
      }
    }

QTextStream  textFile( "matrix.txt", QIODevice::ReadOnly | QIODevice::Text );
    int l;
    int c;

    textFile >> l >> c;  // Assumes you fix your file so it contains #rows and #columns on the first line
    QVector<int> matrix( l * c, 0 );

    for ( int nl = 0; nl < l; ++nl )
    {
      for ( int nc = 0; nc < c; ++nc )
      {
         textFile >>matrix[ nc + nl * c ];
      }
    }

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

Alternatively, with an iterator:

QTextStream  textFile( "matrix.txt", QIODevice::ReadOnly | QIODevice::Text );
    int l;
    int c;
 
    textFile >> l >> c;  // Assumes you fix your file so it contains #rows and #columns on the first line
    QVector<int> matrix( l * c, 0 );
 
    QVector<int>::iterator it = matrix.begin();
    QVector<int>::iterator eIt = matrix.end();
    while ( it != eIt )
    {
       textFile >> *it++;
    }

QTextStream  textFile( "matrix.txt", QIODevice::ReadOnly | QIODevice::Text );
    int l;
    int c;

    textFile >> l >> c;  // Assumes you fix your file so it contains #rows and #columns on the first line
    QVector<int> matrix( l * c, 0 );

    QVector<int>::iterator it = matrix.begin();
    QVector<int>::iterator eIt = matrix.end();
    while ( it != eIt )
    {
       textFile >> *it++;
    }

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

Or, if you don't put the number of rows and columns at the top of the file, but just read it the way it was in your original post:

QTextStream  textFile( "matrix.txt", QIODevice::ReadOnly | QIODevice::Text );
   QVector<int> matrix;
 
    while ( !textFile.atEnd() )
    {
       int value;
       textFile >> value;
       matrix.push_back( value );
    }

QTextStream  textFile( "matrix.txt", QIODevice::ReadOnly | QIODevice::Text );
   QVector<int> matrix;

    while ( !textFile.atEnd() )
    {
       int value;
       textFile >> value;
       matrix.push_back( value );
    }

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

(But of course, you don't know the "shape" of the matrix now - you don;t know the number of rows or columns, so it is just a flat array of ints).

Didn't you read my reply? I gave you three different ways to read your text files using Qt classes. The first two ways will read the file you posted above.

If you need to read more than one file, you can supply the names as command line arguments, and use the optional argc, argv arguments to the main() function. Make a loop that counts over argc, retrieves each file name from the command line, then opens and reads it using the code already given. Remember that argv[0] contains the name of the program, not the first file name, so start with argv[1].

I'm not going to write this code for you. You should be able to read the Qt documentation and do this yourself.

Hello, I was wondering how would the code below into QT

If the code works why do you want to change it? Qt is standard C++ so standard C++ routines don't need to be ported to Qt.
