Will be using the actual data for carbon dioxide levels from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration from a station in Hawaii. Will be creating a class that can calculate various averages and differences over time from the raw data. The main purpose of this program is to learn the tools for the course and to use multi-file programs.

Will be using a statistics class (which you will write) to calculate and report on the climate data.

Input: You will get the file name from the command line of the program. e.g.

linux prompt> ./analyze co2_mm_mlo.txt

Here is an example data file: " See attachment "


Note: The data has a lot of text at the beginning. Read in each word of the file until you reach a line that has "MLO" as the first word. At that point you can start reading the floating point CO2 levels from the data. You may assume that any data file you are given will not have the code "MLO" in the data before the first line of CO2 levels.

Hint: To throw away the text you don't need...

string str;
do {
inputFile >> str;

cout << ":test" << str << endl; //for testing
}
while (str != "MLO");

Processing: You will need to determine the highest, lowest, and average CO2 level in the data. You will also need to calculate the standard deviation of the data. Essentially you are testing the Stats class with this application.

Here is the stats.h header file. " See attachment "

Output: You should provide a main program that reads in the data and provides the appropriate output. Use functions where necessary. Output will go to standard output (the screen).

What do you think?

I think it is pretty straight forward and not too far out there. Sounds like a great opportunity for you to go off and write some code and when you get stuck come back here with your code (in code tags), any error messages you receive, and a problem question then we can guide you in the right direction.

Until then, we can't do anything since it is site policy to first see your "Best effort" attempt at solving the problem and then we can assist. That and we don't do people's homework for them.

As you can see, I think a lot of things.

--------------------------------------------------------------------
I am not asking full entire codes. I was trying to share different solution ways.

I am trying to read each line of the data from the text file until hit the word "MLO". You think, I should use if statement with array. or?

If anyone needs help, let me know.
I am done. It is working perfect, even in Linux.
