Couldn't understand what my error means

[Savage]

I just wrote

txtFile.is_open ()

in my main...how do I make it return true or false?

I initialized my values to 0, not 1, so I don't think its because of that.

Just put it into if statement:

if(txtFile.is_o pen())

And if it isn't that try changing in your text file first value(1.0) to something else,and see if your program than prints that.

I changed the first number in the txt file to 2, and yes, now I get all 2s when I run the code. Any ideas what I did wrong?

Wait a secound,why is x a integer when you are reading in floats?

[CODE="cpp"]void Vector::setVect or (string txtFileName) {
int x;

ifstream txtFile(txtFile Name.c_str());

for (int i = 0; i < this->length; i++) {
txtFile >> x;
this->contents[i] = x;
}

int numberWidth = 8;
int decimalPlaces = 4;
for (int i = 0; i < this->length; i++) {
cout.width(numb erWidth);
cout << fixed << setprecision(de cimalPlaces) << this->contents[i];
cout << '\t';
}

cout << endl;.
}[/CODE]

whoa! you're right!

I just changed x to double and I got what I wanted!

I just spent the last 3 hours trying to fix my code, and all I did wrong was I made x int instead of double! that's crazy.

Thanks for your help man, I really appreciate it.

I'm more than happy to help you.

I think that when x was int stream became corrupted and started to continuously throw in same value.

that makes sense. Thanks again.

Well,that's it then.

If you face another problem with these two classes,feel free to post again.
