help with morse decode program

[flynryan53]

hi im writing a program to decode a morse code message. my program compiles without any error but nothing happens when i enter my code to be decoded. i think there might be something wrong in the "int main()" part of my program. i could really use some help.

im trying to decode this message:
-.. --- -. - ....... ..-. --- .-. --. . - ....... - --- ....... -.. .-. .. -. -.- ....... -.-- --- ..- .-. ....... --- ...- .- .-.. - .. -. . x

this is my code:

#include <string> 
#include <vector> 
#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

class Code 
{public:
Code();
string decode(vector<string> message);
private: 
vector<string> codewords; // codeword vector parallel to A-Z 
vector<char> alpha; // vector for A-Z 
vector<char> alphacode(); // function returns vector - A B C etc 
vector<string> morsecode(); // function returns vector containing morse code 
char decode(string c); 
};

Code::Code() 
{alpha=alphacode();
codewords=morsecode(); 
} 

string Code::decode(vector<string> message) 
{string temp; 
for (int i=0; i<message.size(); i++) 
{temp += decode(message[i]); 
} 

return temp; 
} 

char Code:: decode(string c)
{for (int i=0;i<alpha.size();i++) 
{if(c == codewords[i]) //looks for codeword[i] and matches it with alpha [i] 
{return alpha[i]; //returns c as a char in alpha 
} 
}
}

vector<char> Code::alphacode() 
{vector<char> temp; // returns a vector containing the alphabet A-Z and " " and "." 
for (char c='A'; c<='Z'; c++) //returns the letters 
temp.push_back(c); 
temp.push_back(' '); //returns the space space 
temp.push_back('.'); //returns the period. 
return temp; 
}

vector<string> Code::morsecode() 
{vector<string> temp(28); //compares c 
temp[0] =".-"; 
temp[1] ="-..."; 
temp[2] ="-.-."; 
temp[3] ="-.."; 
temp[4] ="."; 
temp[5] ="..-."; 
temp[6] ="--."; 
temp[7] ="...."; 
temp[8] =".."; 
temp[9] =".---"; 
temp[10] ="-.-"; 
temp[11] =".-.."; 
temp[12] ="--"; 
temp[13] ="-."; 
temp[14] ="---"; 
temp[15] =".--."; 
temp[16] ="--.--"; 
temp[17] =".-."; 
temp[18] ="..."; 
temp[19] ="-"; 
temp[20] ="..-"; 
temp[21] ="...-"; 
temp[22] =".--"; 
temp[23] ="-..-"; 
temp[24] ="-.--";
temp[25] ="--..";
temp[26] ="......."; 
temp[27] ="x"; 
return temp; 
} 

int main() 
{vector<string> message; //this is the int main code for decode 
string temp; 
Code c; 
cin >> temp; 
while (cin.good()) 
{message.push_back(temp);
cin >> temp; 
} 
cout << c.decode(message) << endl;
}

my program compiles without any error but nothing happens when i enter my code to be decoded.

Are you doing something that will cause the condition on line 88 to evaluate to false?

[flynryan53]

i want to input a morse code and output a decoded morse code.
that is what im looking to do but cant seem to figure out.

nothing should come back false in line 88, so do i not need that part?

[cire]

If the condition on 88 never evaluates to false, the loop will never exit.

ok so my int main should look like:

int main() 
{vector<string> message; //this is the int main code for decode 
string temp; 
Code c; 
cin >> temp; 
cout << c.decode(message) << endl;
}
