Programming :: Reading A Binary File Which Is In Hexadecimal

Jan 9, 2011

I have a binary file, which I need to process using my C++ application. Only thing I know is first chunk of the file is long, second chunk is int, third chunk is char etc... The binary file actually contains something like below. (which is represented in hex base).

D7 07 00 00 00 00 00 00 37 18 00 00 DE 07 ............ so on.....

I need to procees the file in the following way.

* I know the first data segment in my file is long. So it takes 4 bytes.
* so I need to read the first four bytes. That is D7 07 00 00.
* Then I need to reverse this as 00 00 07 D7.
* Finally I need to get the decimal value of above hexa decimal line. ( 00 00 07 D7)
* i.e. 00 00 07 D7 (in hex) = 7D7 (in hex- after removing leading 0 s) = 2007 (in decimal)

Like wise I need to process the whole file.

Programming :: Reading Text File Into An Array

Programming :: Reading A File Of Data In An Array?

Feb 10, 2011

I have two files of data with different numbers of columns and rows. I want to read this two files in two arrays and then compare for example the second column of first data file with the third column of the other text file and if the difference between of two numbers is less than a threshold then the program print the information in the rows which fulfill this condition in the third text file. I have written below program but the problem is that it does not go through all rows of second file.

declare -a a
declare -a b
r=` awk '{n++} END {print n}' second.txt `
echo $r
awk '
{

[Code]....

Actually I have two data files one of them contains 44406 and the other one has 12066 rows and I want to check whether the difference between the components of two specific columns is less than a threshod but I have simplified it here. I had written this code and then I have realized that this code just goes through the number of rows as the same as the first.txt file and ignores the rest. I could not find the problem yet.

Programming :: Reading Lines Within A File (Perl)?

Mar 16, 2011

I am trying to read certain lines within a file and give the output of the certain lines that dont equal my value, I think showing you would be easier. There is multiples of these inside one file...

Code:

LV Name /dev/vg00/lvol1
LV Status available/syncd
LV Size (Mbytes) 300lable/syncd

[code]....

I want to read everything in the file, if the status is not available then it should display the name (directly above status). If they are all availbale then do nothing. I think I know how to do it which includes putting the info in string form and placing in hash but it is proving to be out of my skill range.

Programming :: Reading Specific Lines From A File?

Sep 10, 2009

To save on the writing of WAY to many files with very little in them, I want to put it all in one file and read a specific few lines. There will be six variables to be read at a time. Format is as such:

//Set 1
string name
5
12

[code]....

From name to 5th number is a set. The name will be of different lengths for each set. This will be a big file of probably 40+ sets. My problem lies in reading one and only one set be it set 5 or set 34. It needs to be done in C++.

Programming :: Reading File And Compare In Bash Scripts?

Dec 9, 2010

how to program in bash, an i have a problem, i am trying compare values in between 2 values (from another file), so far my solution is to make a nested for loop, but that causes it to compare every value. Here is a visulization of what i want

file.a 2,3,4,5
file.b
3 5

[code]...

i want the values 2, 3, 4, 5 from file.a to be compared inbetween values 3 5, 6 9,1 2, 4 7 from file.b (var1 is the value im comparing, var2 is the less value, var 3 is the greater value)

for i in $var1
do
for k in $var2
do

[code]....

my problem with the above code is it compares EVERYINNG, not the values inbetween what i want (which is 3 5, 6 9 etc).

Programming :: Zip A Variable With PERL Without Reading Or Writing A File?

There is the Archive::Zip I think I can use with Perl 5.10 but I don't know how. I don't want to read or write any files, just zip something in memory, with best compression, like

$text = "this is a test";
$zippedtext = &Zip($text);
sub Zip {

I guess it's only a few lines.

Programming :: Reading The Absolute File-path As Sorted?

Jun 13, 2010

I wanted to read out the absolute file-path (filename) as sorted in a folder (on Linux). The reading the file-paths is ok but I have problems in sorting.

Code:

selectedDirectory = fl_dir_chooser ("Select Imagedirectory:",NULL,0); //This is just a widget to show the folder.
DIR *d;
dirent *de;

[code]....

The files -105.dcm, -106.dcm, -107.dcm lie in the folder at the bottom and -36.dcm, -37.dcm- at the top. The program compares 1 and 3 of 105 and 37, 1 is lesser than 3, then prints out first, but does not know that 105 is three digits and 37 is two digits.

Programming :: Bash - Reading Csv Delimited File To Array And For Further Manipulation?

Jan 6, 2010

I am trying to do this:

1. Read csv delimited file line1 and store all values in array

2. Use the values stored in the array and replace values in other text file with them

3. read line2 in the cvs file and repeat the process

4. Do above for all lines in the cvs file

for example:

file1.cvs content:

text1,text2,text3,"text 4"
a1,a2,3,"a 4"

file.txt content:

some text $array1$ some text
some text $array2$ some text

1. read line 1 - text1,text2,text3,"text 4" put each value in array X[] lines that contain spaces in cvs will have double quotes

2. read x[1] and replace value $array1$ (in file.txt) with x[1]read x[2] and replace value $array2$ (in file.txt) with x[2] and so on

Can above be accomplished in BASH and how?

Programming :: Script To Create Simple HTML From Text File?

Oct 1, 2009

I am working on a script to convert a comma seperated text file into html code line by line. The text file is like so:

Code:

link url, image url, description and I want it to output this:

Code:

<td><a href=�link url�><img src="image url" alt=�description" /></a></td>

Here is what I have so far:

Code:

#!/bin/bash
var1='<td><a href=
var2='><img src="'
var3='" alt=�thumbnail image" /></a></td>'

[code].....

It puts the entire line into the html so its no good. I'll probably need to use awk (I think).

Programming :: Simple Bash To Write Files By Year To A Log File

I have a folder of 2 many files that the old ls just hangs.

I am trying to write some log files such as;

I don't mind doing one at a time, but I am just playing and even getting the listing I am not getting the date stamp, I have the following;

That does create the file, but all the files look like this;

So basically it's just sticking that ls inside the log file and not actually running the ls, so how can I use the above type to get files just created per year?

General :: Why Is Reading A FILE Faster Than Reading A VARIABLE?

May 4, 2011

I don't understand the results of a simple performance test I ran using two basic scripts (running on a high end server):

perfVar.zsh :

#!/bin/zsh -f
MYVAR=`cat $1`
for i in {1..10}

[code]...

Performance test result:

> time ./perfVar.zsh BigTextFile > /dev/null
./perfVar.zsh FE > /dev/null 6.86s user 0.32s system 100% cpu 7.177 total
> time ./perfCat.zsh BigTextFile > /dev/null
./perfCat.zsh FE > /dev/null 0.01s user 0.10s system 91% cpu 0.118 total

I would have thought that accessing a VARIABLE was way faster than reading a FILE on the file system... Why this result ?Is there a way to optimize the perfCat.zsh script by reducing the number of accesses to the file system ?

Programming :: Getting A Open Source Sound File Format For Bitwise Editing?

Feb 19, 2011

I was wondering, what would be a good, open-source file format for a beginner in the field, like me, to start editing sound files? This file format would have to be well documented, preferibly open-source, lossless and, most of all, convertible to more popular file formats, such as mp3 or wav maybe. I would like to design my own sound effects through directly editing the binary sequence of a sound file. I imagine this editing would have the purpose of adjusting the voltage variations of the sound device's output in time. It would be perhaps something like a PC-controlled signal generator. I'm thinking I might be able to do this in linux with something like

Code:

$ dd if=mysound.raw of=/dev/audio

But then, which book or resource woule be a good and through explenation of the relationship between the bit sequence in mysound.raw and the signal function generated in the output of, say, my computer's sound card.
