Format to 3 columns

I have been playing around with my code I have written and I can't seem to be able to get everything to "cout" in three separate side by side columns...any advice or help would be greatly appreciated. Thnx in advanced ~tonyp

Which line is the problem on?
lsk (141)
So, you should tell us how your program works, what's in the file you opened. Or maybe comment in your code to make it more easier.

You give me nothing and when I test your code. "What? I have to write a file? But I don't know what will be in the file.So, I leave."

ya sorry i didn't include the .txt file The .txt file has two strings (dates) 6/14/2014
6/15/2014
and then it lists 48 numbers to represent one temp. for each hour of each day.

Here is the weatherdata.txt info:

The output looks like this (sorry for the long list-like output) and then I will add the cout << for mean1, mean2, stdv1, and stdv2.
I am unsure of where the problem is, or if it is even possible to turn that output into three side by side columns.

So, do you know why your output comes like this?
You have to design the format of the output before you program it.

In this case I suggest you to keep all data in array, loop using hour and print out every day in that hour in the same line. such as,

cout << setw(15) << "Hour" << setw(25) << tempDate1 << setw(25) << tempDate2 << endl;
loop i = 1 -> 24
cout << setw(15) << 1 << setw(25) << day1[i] << setw(25) << day2[i] << endl;
end loop

something like this in new function.

Did you check my previous reply?

And noticed, "\n" is newline, same as std::endl.
So, you got newline twice.

I did see your previous comment and just implemented a new void function called show data which does the output amazingly...I am so thankful for you taking time to help a noob in distress like myself...i am going to delete my last (long ass) comment and place my new code, because I am having one last issue with the mean and standard deviation values returning the proper numbers...they both return 0.0 now and they worked before...so I will once again ask for you to share your expertise with me if you would be so gracious
tonypall (8)
Disregard, I fixed it...I needed to move line 35 and 36 to line 31...Isk I want to thank you for all of your help

Is that clearly?

double mean1 = findMean1(day1);
double mean2 = findMean2(day2);
double stdv1 = stdDev1(day1, mean1);
double stdv2 = stdDev2(day2, mean2);


I think you find mean before you read the numbers ^^

EDIT Ah~ Okay np :)
