Question

I have asked this question before, but the code I was given does not continue reading the rest of the numbers after the negative number is entered. If the user enters the negative number as the 3rd number, I don't want the loop to stop there before they get to enter all 50 numbers. After they have entered all 50 numbers including the negative number, I want to then display the numbers they've entered prior to the negative number. to the output file.

Here is the code in C++

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
void read_data_function();
void display_numbers();
void display_all_numbers();
int stack[50],top=-1,i;
   void read_data_function()
   {
       for(i=0;i<50;i++)
       {
       top++;
       cin>>stack[i];
       if(stack[i]<0)
       {
       break;  
       }
       }
      
   }
  
  
   void display_numbers()
   {
   cout<<" ";
   cout<<"displaying all numbers you entered prior to negative number"<<" ";
   for(i=0;i<top;i++)
   {

       cout<<stack[i]<<" ";
          
   }
   cout<<" ";
  
   }
  
   void display_all_numbers()
       {
       cout<<"printing all numbers including negative number in a vertical line (LIFO ORDER)"<<" ";
       top--;
       while(top>=0)  
           {
           cout<<stack[top]<<" ";  
           top--;  
           }
       }
  
int main()
{
  

   read_data_function();
   display_numbers();
   display_all_numbers();
   return 0;
}

Explanation / Answer

Note: The condition used down there counts the no. of entries before negative no. is entered. And that count(i.e. fcount) is used in the for loop to print numbers in display_all_numbers() function.

#include<iostream.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
void read_data_function();
void display_numbers();
void display_all_numbers();
int stack[50],top=-1,i, count=0, fcount=0;
void read_data_function()
{
for(i=0;i<50;i++)
{
top++;
cin>>stack[i];
count++;
if(stack[i]<0 && fcount==0) /* this is the condition you needed to count the the number of entries before negative number is entered */
{
fcount=count;
}
}

}

void display_numbers()
{
cout<<" ";
cout<<"displaying all numbers you entered prior to negative number"<<" ";
for(i=0;i<fcount-1;i++)
{
cout<<stack[i]<<" ";

}
cout<<" ";

}

void display_all_numbers()
{
cout<<"printing all numbers including negative number in a vertical line (LIFO ORDER)"<<" ";
top--;
   while(top>=0)
   {
   cout<<stack[top]<<" ";
   top--;
   }
}

void main()
{
system("cls");
read_data_function();
display_numbers();
top++;
display_all_numbers();
}
