Read a Text file & store it in a Data Structure

[gretty]

Hi :)

How do you write a program that reads a text file (music.txt) & stores it in a Data Structure.

I am a novice learning over the internet so I this is something I have never done.

How do I do this?

I hope that I explained this well but here is a little more info incase not

Write a program that reads the data from the
music.txt file and store it in a data structure. To implement this data structure you must use an array of songs and each song must be represented by a struct with appropriate fields.

Any advice on how to do this would be extremely helpful :)

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <strstream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
	ifstream fin("music.txt");


	if (fin.fail()) {
		cout << "Can't open file!\n";
	}

Start creating the data structure for the songs ( the members depend on the information you need to store ), after that you can overload the >> operator to read data from the file stream to your structure
