Question

val += line[i] == " * "; is evaluated as val += (line[i] == " * "); due to operator precedence.

val will be incremented by 1 (true converts to an integral value of 1) if, and only if, line[i] compares true with " * ", else it will stay the same.

Finally #define endl '\n' is very naughty. Don’t attempt to change symbols in the C++ standard library.
