standard I/O

[Athira Abin]

how do i jump to the next line after a particular character is found from a standard input. this should evade all the remaining characters in that line after that particular character.

Im actually looking for a way to jump to the next line.

Please help/

What I would do is read in all characters until newline when I found the appropriate character:

char ch;
…..

if ( ch == characterYourLookingFor )<br /> {<br />       cin &gt;&gt; ch;<br />       while ( ch != 'n' )<br />          cin &gt;&gt; ch;<br /> }

1 2 3 4 5 6

if ( ch == characterYourLookingFor )<br /> {<br />       cin &gt;&gt; ch;<br />       while ( ch != 'n' )<br />          cin &gt;&gt; ch;<br /> }

// the next character you read will be from the front of the next line…
