Question

Can someone edit the below code to read input from a text file and save the results to an output text file. Currently it is reading from two prefixed arrays.

#include <bits/stdc++.h>

using namespace std;

// A Huffman tree node

struct MinHeapNode

{

    char data;                // One of the input characters

    unsigned freq;             // Frequency of the character

    MinHeapNode *left, *right; // Left and right child

    MinHeapNode(char data, unsigned freq)

    {

        left = right = NULL;

        this->data = data;

        this->freq = freq;

    }

};

// For comparison of two heap nodes (needed in min heap)

struct compare

{

    bool operator()(MinHeapNode* l, MinHeapNode* r)

    {

        return (l->freq > r->freq);

    }

};

// Prints huffman codes from the root of Huffman Tree.

void printCodes(struct MinHeapNode* root, string str)

{

    if (!root)

        return;

    if (root->data != '$')

        cout << root->data << ": " << str << " ";

    printCodes(root->left, str + "0");

    printCodes(root->right, str + "1");

}

// The main function that builds a Huffman Tree and

// print codes by traversing the built Huffman Tree

void HuffmanCodes(char data[], int freq[], int size)

{

    struct MinHeapNode *left, *right, *top;

    // Create a min heap & inserts all characters of data[]

    priority_queue<MinHeapNode*, vector<MinHeapNode*>, compare> minHeap;

    for (int i = 0; i < size; ++i)

        minHeap.push(new MinHeapNode(data[i], freq[i]));

    // Iterate while size of heap doesn't become 1

    while (minHeap.size() != 1)

    {

        // Extract the two minimum freq items from min heap

        left = minHeap.top();

        minHeap.pop();

        right = minHeap.top();

        minHeap.pop();

        // Create a new internal node with frequency equal to the

        // sum of the two nodes frequencies. Make the two extracted

        // node as left and right children of this new node. Add

        // this node to the min heap

        // '$' is a special value for internal nodes, not used

        top = new MinHeapNode('$', left->freq + right->freq);

        top->left = left;

        top->right = right;

        minHeap.push(top);

    }

    // Print Huffman codes using the Huffman tree built above

    printCodes(minHeap.top(), "");

}

// Driver program to test above functions

int main()

{

    char arr[] = { 'a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f' }; // This Part should be read from input.txt

    int freq[] = { 5, 9, 12, 13, 16, 45 }; // This should also be read from input.txt

    int size = sizeof(arr) / sizeof(arr[0]);

    HuffmanCodes(arr, freq, size);

    return 0;

}

Explanation / Answer

#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;

// A Huffman tree node
struct MinHeapNode
{
char data; // One of the input characters
unsigned freq; // Frequency of the character
MinHeapNode *left, *right; // Left and right child

MinHeapNode(char data, unsigned freq)
{
left = right = NULL;
this->data = data;
this->freq = freq;
}
};

// For comparison of two heap nodes (needed in min heap)
struct compare
{
bool operator()(MinHeapNode* l, MinHeapNode* r)
{
return (l->freq > r->freq);
}
};

// Prints huffman codes from the root of Huffman Tree.
void printCodes(struct MinHeapNode* root, string str, ofstream &outFile)
{
if (!root)
return;

if (root->data != '$')
outFile << root->data << ": " << str << " ";
//cout << root->data << ": " << str << " ";

printCodes(root->left, str + "0", outFile);
printCodes(root->right, str + "1", outFile);
}

// The main function that builds a Huffman Tree and
// print codes by traversing the built Huffman Tree
void HuffmanCodes(char data[], int freq[], int size)
{
struct MinHeapNode *left, *right, *top;

// Create a min heap & inserts all characters of data[]
priority_queue<MinHeapNode*, vector<MinHeapNode*>, compare> minHeap;
for (int i = 0; i < size; ++i)
minHeap.push(new MinHeapNode(data[i], freq[i]));

// Iterate while size of heap doesn't become 1
while (minHeap.size() != 1)
{
// Extract the two minimum freq items from min heap
left = minHeap.top();
minHeap.pop();

right = minHeap.top();
minHeap.pop();

// Create a new internal node with frequency equal to the
// sum of the two nodes frequencies. Make the two extracted
// node as left and right children of this new node. Add
// this node to the min heap
// '$' is a special value for internal nodes, not used
top = new MinHeapNode('$', left->freq + right->freq);
top->left = left;
top->right = right;
minHeap.push(top);
}

ofstream outFile("output.txt");

if(!outFile.is_open()){
cout << "Unable to open file" << endl;
exit(1);
}   

// Print Huffman codes using the Huffman tree built above
printCodes(minHeap.top(), "" , outFile);

outFile.close();
}

// Driver program to test above functions
int main()
{
//Declare an input file stream
ifstream inFile;
//We need to give path to the input file
inFile.open("input.txt");

if(!inFile){
cout << "Unable to open file" << endl;
exit(1);
}

int size,i;

inFile >> size;

char arr[size];
int freq[size];

for(i=0;i<size;i++)
inFile >> arr[i];

for(i=0;i<size;i++)
inFile >> freq[i];

inFile.close();
//char arr[] = { 'a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f' }; // This Part should be read from input.txt
//int freq[] = { 5, 9, 12, 13, 16, 45 }; // This should also be read from input.txt
//int size = sizeof(arr) / sizeof(arr[0]);

HuffmanCodes(arr, freq, size);

return 0;
}

Suppose the contents of input.txt is following:

6 a b c d e f 5 9 12 13 16 45

Then contents of output.txt are following:

f: 0
c: 100
d: 101
a: 1100
b: 1101
e: 111
