C++ || Simple Multi Digit, Decimal & Negative Number Infix To Postfix Conversion & Evaluation
The following is sample code which demonstrates the implementation of a multi digit, decimal, and negative number infix to postfix converter and evaluator using C++.
The program demonstrated on this page has the ability to convert and evaluate a single digit, multi digit, decimal number, and/or negative number infix equation. So for example, if the the infix equation of (19.87 * -2) was entered into the program, the converted postfix expression of 19.87 -2 * would display to the screen, as well as the final evaluated answer of -39.74.

How To Convert Infix To Postfix
How To Evaluate A Postfix Expression
1. Overview
The program demonstrated on this page is different from a previous implementation of the same type in that this version does not use a Finite State Machine during the conversion process, which simplifies the implemetation!
This program has the following flow of control:
• Get an infix expression from the user
• Convert the infix expression to postfix & isolate all of the math operators, multi digit, decimal, negative and single digit numbers that are found in the postfix expression
• Evaluate the postfix expression by breaking the infix string into tokens found from the above step
• Display the evaluated answer to the screen
The above steps are implemented below.

C++ || Multi Digit, Decimal & Negative Number Infix To Postfix Conversion & Evaluation
The following is sample code which demonstrates the implementation of a multi digit, decimal, and negative number infix to postfix converter and evaluator using a Finite State Machine
REQUIRED KNOWLEDGE FOR THIS PROGRAM
How To Convert Infix To Postfix
How To Evaluate A Postfix Expression
What Is A Finite State Machine?
Using a Finite State Machine, the program demonstrated on this page has the ability to convert and evaluate a single digit, multi digit, decimal number, and/or negative number infix equation. So for example, if the the infix equation of (19.87 * -2) was entered into the program, the converted postfix expression of 19.87 ~2* would display to the screen, as well as the final evaluated answer of -39.74.
NOTE: In this program, negative numbers are represented by the “~” symbol on the postfix string. This is used to differentiate between a negative number and a subtraction symbol.
This program has the following flow of control:
• Get an infix expression from the user
• Convert the infix expression to postfix
• Use a Finite State Machine to isolate all of the math operators, multi digit, decimal, negative and single digit numbers that are found in the postfix expression
• Evaluate the postfix expression using the tokens found from the above step

Java || Snippet – How To Do Simple Math Using Integer Arrays
This page will consist of simple programs which demonstrate the process of doing simple math with numbers that are stored in an integer array.
REQUIRED KNOWLEDGE FOR THIS SNIPPET
Integer Arrays
The "Random" Class
For Loops
Assignment Operators - Simple Math Operations
Custom Setw/Setfill In Java
Note: In all of the examples on this page, a random number generator was used to place numbers into the array. If you do not know how to obtain data from the user, or if you do not know how to insert data into an array, click here for a demonstration.
===== ADDITION =====
The first code snippet will demonstrate how to add numbers together which are stored in an integer array. This example uses the “+=” assignment operator.

Java || Snippet – How To Find The Highest & Lowest Numbers Contained In An Integer Array
This page will consist of a simple demonstration for finding the highest and lowest numbers contained in an integer array.
REQUIRED KNOWLEDGE FOR THIS SNIPPET
Finding the highest/lowest values in an array can be found in one or two ways. The first way would be via a sort, which would obviously render the highest/lowest numbers contained in the array because the values would be sorted in order from highest to lowest. But a sort may not always be practical, especially when you want to keep the array values in the same order that they originally came in.
The second method of finding the highest/lowest values is by traversing through the array, literally checking each value it contains one by one to determine if the current number which is being compared truly is a target value or not. That method will be displayed below.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 |

C++ || Convert Numbers To Words Using A Switch Statement
This program demonstrates more practice using arrays and switch statements.
REQUIRED KNOWLEDGE FOR THIS PROGRAM
Integer Arrays
Cin.get

For loops
While Loops
Switch Statements - How To Use
Using “cin.get(),” this program first asks the user to enter in a number (one at a time) that they wish to translate into words. If the text which was entered into the system is a number, the program will save the user input into an integer array. If the text is not a number, the input is discarded. After integer data is obtained, a for loop is used to traverse the integer array, passing the data to a switch statement, which translates the number to text.
This program is very simple, so it does not have the ability to display any number prefixes. As a result, if the number “1858” was entered into the system, the program would output the converted text: “One Eight Five Eight.”

This program first asks the user to enter a number that they wish to compare for similarity. If the number which was entered into the system is a palindrome, the program will prompt a message to the user via cout. This program determines similarity by using the strcmp function to compare two arrays together. Using a for loop, this program also demonstrates how to reverse a character array, aswell as demonstrates how to determine if the text contained in a character array is a number or not.
This program will repeatedly prompt the user for input until an “exit code” is obtained. The designated exit code in this program is the number 0 (zero). So the program will not stop asking for user input until the number 0 is entered into the program.

This is a small and simple program which demonstrates how to search for a target value which is stored in an integer array. This program first prompts the user to enter five values into an int array. After the user enters all the values into the system, it then displays a prompt asking the user for a search value. Once it has a search value, the program searches through the array looking for the target value; and wherever the value is found, the program display’s the current array index in which that target value is located. After it displays all the locations where the target value resides, it display’s the total number of occurrences the search value was found within the array.

QUICK NOTES:

ARRAY
Notice the array declaration on line #13. The type of array being used in this program is a dynamic array, which has the ability to store up to 100 integer elements in the array. You can change the number of elements its able to store to a higher or lower number if you wish.
FOR LOOP
Lines 27-32 contains a for loop, which is used to actually store the data inside of the array. Without some type of loop, it is virtually impossible for the user to input data into the array; that is, unless you want to add 100 different println statements into your code asking the user to input data. Line 31 uses the assignment operator “+=” which gives us a running total of the data that is being inputted into the array. Note the loop only stores as many elements as the user so desires, so if the user only wants to input 3 numbers into the array, the for loop will only execute 3 times.
Once compiled, you should get this as your output:
Welcome to My Programming Notes' Java Program.
How many numbers do you want to find the average for?: 4
Enter value #1: 21
Enter value #2: 24
Enter value #3: 19
Enter value #4: 17
The average of the 4 numbers is 20.25
====== FIND THE AVERAGE – OMIT HIGHEST AND LOWEST SCORES ======
The second program is really practical in a real world setting. We were asked to create a program for a fictional competition which had 6 judges. The 6 judges each gave a score of the performance for a competitor in a competition, (i.e a score of 1-10), and we were asked to find the average of those scores, omitting the highest/lowest results. The program was to store the scores into an array, display the scores back to the user via stdout, display the highest and lowest scores among the 6 obtained, display the average of the 6 scores, and finally display the average adjusted scores omitting the highest and lowest result.

QUICK NOTES:
The highlighted lines are sections of interest to look out for.
FINAL
A final variable was declared and used to initialize the array (line 7). This was used to initialize the size of the array.
FOR LOOPS
Once again loops were used to traverse the array, as noted on lines 24, 51 and 73. The final variable was also used within the for loops, making it easier to modify the code if its necessary to reduce or increase the number of available judges.
HIGHEST/LOWEST SCORES
This is noted on lines 35-45, and it is really simple to understand the process once you see the code.
OMITTING HIGHEST/LOWEST SCORE
Lines 73-81 highlights this process. The loop basically traverses the array, skipping over the highest/lowest elements.
Once compiled, you should get this as your output

Isalpha
Isspace
This program first prompts the user to input a line of text. After it obtains data from the user, using a for loop, it then displays the the string to the screen one letter (char) at a time. If the current character at that specific array index is a letter, a “flag” is set, indicating that the current word which is being displayed is not a number. If the “flag” is not set, the current word is indeed a number.
This program has the ability to intake multiple words at a time, so for example, if the user input was “Hello World 2012” the program would display the output:
Hello is NOT a number!
World is NOT a number!
2012 is a number..

C++ || Stack – Using A Stack, Determine If A Set Of Parentheses Is Well-Formed
Here is another homework assignment which was presented in a C++ Data Structures course. This assignment was used to introduce the stack ADT, and helped prepare our class for two later assignments which required using a stack. Those assignments can be found here:
(1) Stack Based Infix To Postfix Conversion (Single Digit)
(2) Stack Based Postfix Evaluation (Single Digit)
REQUIRED KNOWLEDGE FOR THIS PROGRAM
Stack Data Structure
Cin.getline
#include "ClassStackListType.h"
A simple exercise for testing a stack is determining whether a set of parenthesis is “well formed” or not. What exactly is meant by that? In the case of a pair of parenthesis, for an expression to be well formed, consider the following table.
1 2 3 4 5 6 |
Well-Formed Expressions | Ill-Formed Expressions ------------------------------------|-------------------------------------- ( a b c [ ] ) | ( a b c [ ) ( ) [ ] { } | ( ( { ( a b c d e ) ( ) } | [ a b c d e ) ( ) } ( a + [ b - c ] / d ) | ( a + [ b - c } / d ) |
Given an expression with characters and parenthesis, ( ), [ ], and { }, our class was asked to determine if an expression was well formed or not by using the following algorithm:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 |
// An algorithm for a Well Formed expression Set 'balanced' to true Set 'symbol' to the first character in the current expression while(there are more characters AND 'balanced' == true) { if('symbol' is an opening symbol) { Push 'symbol' onto the stack } else if('symbol' is a closing symbol) { if the stack is empty 'balanced' = false else Set the 'openSymbol' to the item at the top of the stack Pop the stack Check to see if 'symbol' matches 'openSymbol' (i.e - if openSymbol == '(' and symbol == ')' then 'balanced' = true) } Set 'symbol' to the next character in the current expression } if('balanced' == true AND stack is empty) { Expression is well formed } else { Expression is NOT well formed }// http://programmingnotes.org/ |

C++ || Snippet – How To Read & Write Data From A User Specified Text File
This page will consist of a demonstration of a simple quadratic formula program, which highlights the use of the input/output mechanisms of manipulating a text file. This program is very similar to an earlier snippet which was presented on this site, but in this example, the user has the option of choosing which file they want to manipulate. This program also demonstrates how to read in data from a file (numbers), manipulate that data, and output new data into a different text file.

#Define
This program first prompts the user to input a file name. After it obtains a file name from the user, it then attempts to display the contents of the user specified file to the output screen. If the file could not be found, an error message appears. If the file is found, the program continues as normal. After the file contents finishes being displayed, a summary indicating the total number of lines which has been read is also shown to the screen.
This program was implemented into 3 different files (two .cpp files, and one header file .h). So the code for this program will be broken up into 3 sections, the main file (.cpp), the header file (.h), and the implementation of the functions within the header file (.cpp).
Note: The data file that is used in this example can be downloaded here.
Also, in order to read in the data .txt file, you need to save the .txt file in the same directory (or folder) as your .cpp file is saved in. If you are using Visual C++, this directory will be located in
