[Solved] C++ : Creating program that reads a text file


Try this sample program and build up on it:

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>

using namespace std;

int main(void)
{
    ifstream infile;
    infile.open("football.txt", ios::in);

    if (!infile)
    {
       cout<<"File does not exist";
       return EXIT_FAILURE;
    }
    std::string text_from file;
    while (getline(infile, text_from_file))
    {
       cout << text_from_file << "\n";
    }

    cout << "Paused. Press enter to continue.\n"
    cin.ignore(10000, '\n');

    return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

Notice that text is being read from the file using the getline function.
