C++ help thank you!

Data file:

Client program:

Correct output:

(What we need to do)

you'll be making the following refinements to the class that you wrote in the last assignment. All the requirements from that class still apply. For example, all myStrings must always be stored in a dynamic array that is exactly the correct size to store the string.

Extraction Operator

Just like the >> operator that reads C-strings, your >> operator should skip any leading spaces and then read characters into the string up to the first whitespace character.

For reasons of convenience, we will impose a limit of 127 on the number of characters this function will read. This is so you can temporarily read into a non-dynamic array and then copy what you need into your data member, which will be a dynamic array. Note that this does not mean that all myStrings will always have a maximum of 127 characters. For example, you might get a myString with more than 127 characters by using the myString constructor or by concatenating two myStrings.

Hint: Don't try to read character by character in a loop. Use the extraction operator to do the reading of the input into a non-dynamic array, then use strcpy() to copy it into your data member. Make sure to allocate the correct amount of memory.

Hint: if you use the extraction operator as suggested above, you will not have to skip leading whitespace, because the extraction operator does that for you.

A read() function

The read() function will allow the client programmer to specify the delimiting character (the one to stop at instead of the first space). This will be a void function that will take two arguments, a stream and the delimiting character. It should not skip leading spaces. The limit of 127 characters imposed on the >> function above also applies to this function.

Hint: Don't try to read character by character in a loop. Use the in.getline() function to do the reading of the input into a non-dynamic array, then use strcpy() to copy it into your data member.

Concatenation Operator

Overload the + operator to do myString concatenation. The operator must be able to handle either myString objects or C-strings on either side of the operator. Be careful with the memory management here. You'll have to allocate enough memory to hold the new myString. I suggest using strcpy() to get the left operand into the result myString, and then strcat() to append the right operand. Both strcpy() and strcat() should be used as if they are void, even though they do have return values.

Combined Concatenation/Assignment Operator

Overload the shorthand += to combine concatenation and assignment. Only myStrings can be on the left-hand side of a += operation, but either myStrings or C-strings may appear on the right side. If you pay close attention to the += operator from the feetInches class, these may be the easiest points of the semester.

Add Documentation (Please also do this part)

Header File: In the case of a class, the header file should begin with a (typically) very large header comment. This comment should include a general description of the class (so a client programmer can tell right away whether she wants to use it), followed by a listing of all of the prototypes of public members, each with pre and post conditions. Note that this list of prototypes is still part of the comment. You will have to list the prototypes again in the code below this header comment! You are required to use pre/post conditions to document your public member functions. Do not include any comments regarding the implementation details in the header file! This very large comment will then be followed by the header file code (e.g. the class declaration), with no comments.

Implementation File: In the implementation file you should start with a class invariant. (I don't expect you to have prior knowledge of what a class invariant is. The description that follows should suffice.) The class invariant will include a description of the private data members and how they are used, as well as a statement of anything that you guarantee will always be true for class objects (for example: "fraction objects will always be stored in lowest terms"). Aside from the class invariant, the only comments you will need in your implementation file are comments on the implementation of complex functions, and comments on private functions (which do not get comments in the header file).

Comments in the header file will follow the following pattern.

Name your source code files mystring.h and mystring.cpp.

==============================================

Previous work and requirement:

See also client program and correct output.

Clint program

Correct output

Requirements:

Write a string class. To avoid conflicts with other similarly named classes, we will call our version myString. This object is designed to make working with sequences of characters a little more convenient and less error-prone than handling raw c-strings, (although it will be implemented as a c-string behind the scenes). The myString class will handle constructing strings, reading/printing, and accessing characters. In addition, the myString object will have the ability to make a full deep-copy of itself when copied.

Your class must have only one data member, a c-string implemented as a dynamic array. In particular, you must not use a data member to keep track of the size or length of the myString.

This is the first part of a two part assignment. In the next assignment you will be making some refinements to the class that you create in this assignment. For example, no documentation is required this week, but full documentation will be required next week.

Here is a list of the operations this class must support:

A length member function which returns the number of characters in the string. Use strlen().

Construction of a myString from a const c-string. You should copy the string data, not just store a pointer to an argument passed to the constructor. Constructing a myString with no arguments creates an empty myString object (i.e. ""). A myString object should be implemented efficiently (space-wise) which is to say you should not have a fixed-size buffer of chars, but instead allocate space for chars on an as-needed basis. Use strcpy().

Printing a myString to a stream using an overloaded << (insertion) operator, which should simply print out its characters. Use <<.

Your myString object should overload the square brackets [ ] operator to allow direct access to the individual characters of the string. This operation should range-check and assert if the index is out of bounds. You will write two versions of the [ ] operator, a const version that allows read access to the chars, and a non-const version that returns the client a reference to the char so they can change the value.

All six of the relational operators (<, <=, >, >=, ==, !=) should be supported. They should be able to compare myString objects to other myStrings as well as myStrings to c-strings. The ordering will be based on ASCII values. You can think of this as essentially alphabetical order; however, because of the way that ASCII values are defined, uppercase letters will always come before lowercase letters, and punctuation will make things even more complicated. Confused? You don't need to worry about any of this: just use the results of calling the strcmp() function. myStrings or c-strings should be able to appear on either side of the comparison operator.

Of course, you'll also need to include the four functions discussed in the lesson that are always required in classes that use dynamic memory. (These functions, excluding the default constructor, are otherwise known as the "big-three".)

You may use all of the c-string functionality provided by C++. This will include the strlen(), strcmp(), and strcpy() functions, along with the overloaded insertion operator for c-strings. These functions are all covered in detail in the text. When you use strcpy() treat it as a void function despite the fact that it has a return value. Do not use strncpy(), strncat(), or strncmp() since they are not implemented in all versions of C++. You may NOT use anything from the C++ string class!!

You must place your header file and implementation file in a namespace. Normally one would call a namespace something more likely to be unique, but for purposes of convenience we will call our namespace "cs_mystring".
