Hi,
i am trying to develop a table which contain the following:

No Name I/C number Experiment Group
Week1 Week2 Week3
1 Tan Chin Chee 1234456666 Exp 1 Exp 2 Exp 3 A
2 AKKKKKKKKKKKK 3847384737 A
3
4
5

6 Adrian 565565656 Exp 2 Exp 3 Exp 1 B
7

Well the problem here is a have to read the name from a name list of 66 person. And i cannot cout their name. Since in the name list all the name will be written in such way (Tan Chin Chee). After the space it, the next char will be store as some other thing else(not name). And how do i make a space after the group A. Where you can see after number 5, there is a space before going to number 6.

Thanks.

p/s : I am using c++

between 5 and 6 there is an empty line;
cout << "\n";
Spaces?.. What's the problem;
cout << " ";
To tabulate;
cout << "\t";

i have a name list of the following
1 123123124124
2 123123123123
3 343242342342
4 123354352525
5 234523525255
6 234523413412
7 123421341234
8 234123423412
9 343434355266
10 123421342423
11 123421561666

And the source code i have written cannot produce the required form of table.

i have did that. Can i do the same if the name is not key in by the user. Because i need to read the name directly from a name list given.

The code snippet you've shown here, and the problem/request in your initial post, do not even come close to matching. Explain clearly what you are after.

Well, in the code i have sent i am trying to show the following :

1 12312312312 Group A
2 12155132415 Group A
3
4
5
6
7

8 4325141235 Group B
9
10

In my initial post i am requesting for help to show the names. Since i can't do that so i am trying to at least show the identification number(I/C) and the group. Also with the spacing after number 7(in my code, after number 13. I have 66 i/c in my name list) The problem i have encountered is that after the spacing the i/c for group B cant't be shown. Why is that?

separate each field with a comma :

1, Tan Chin Chee, 1234456666, Exp 1, Exp 2, Exp 3, A

or put " around strings

1 "Tan Chin Chee" 1234456666 "Exp 1" "Exp 2" "Exp 3" "A"

or store your file as an xml file.

i have already tried various type of storing ways. I have tried to store the names as char,string,int,double,float...everything i can think of. But it just won't read the name. Weird~~

Then why are you wanting to "...develop a table?" Confused | :confused:

Developing a table, and reading from it, are two different things.

o i might be misleading you. Act i am trying to read the name from a database and then cout it into a table.

So does section17.txt represent the "database" that you are reading from? If so, what does it look like?

Ok, how many columns is each row comprised of?

Well in my table there are suppose to be 5 columns. Which will look like this

Num Name I/C Group Week
Week 1 Week 2 Week 3

So why the two rows? Confused | :confused:

In any case, as Maximilien has already suggested, you need a way of delimiting each column with something other than a space. Sans that, it's not possible to differentiate between a space between columns and a space within a column.
