The “get” Function:
The “get” function is used to read a text file one character at a time. The pointer automatically shifts to the next character after reading a character. The syntax of this member function is:
object.get (var);
Where:
object: represents created object of ifstream (or fstream) class.
get: represents a member function of the object.
var: represents a char type variable used to store the character that is read from the file.
Program:
Write a program to read a text tile, one character at a time, and display the contents on the screen.
#include<iostream. h>
#include<fstream. h>
#include<conio .h>
#include<stdlib.h>
main( )
{
char ch;
itstream rrr (”data.txt”);
clrscr ( );
if ( !rrr )
{
cerr << “File opening error” <<endl;
exit(1)
}
while( rrr )
{
rrr.get (ch);
cout << ch;
}
}
