class Paragraph {
public:
void setCode();

void Paragraph::decode() {
for (int i = 0; i < code.length(); i++) {
char characterHolder = code.at(i);
char newCharacter = characterHolder - 3;
characterHolder = newCharacter;
}
ofstream onFS;
onFS.open("Output");
onFS << code;
onFS.close();
};
int main()
{
Paragraph code;
code.setCode();
code.getCode();
code.decode();
code.getCode();
return 0;
}
the above code is intended to take a string of gobbledegoop my professor provided on a .txt file (Input.txt) and translate it into a coherent phrase by subtracting 3 from the ascii value of each character. the result is then supposed to be recorded into Output.txt. what are some reasons this may not be working?

Too lazy to check/run it, but you say you're want to read and write to a Input.txt and Output.txt. But in you code you open Input and Output.

Just tried that but I got the same result as last time I ran it, a blank console window. Anything else I could be forgetting?

>>232666
add onFS.flush(); just before onFS.close();
>>
>>232667
Same result as last time. I think it might be having trouble grabbing the string from the text file but idk why that would be.

>>232670
replace
characterHolder = newCharacter;
with
code[i] = newCharacter;
It works on my end (with the previous changes aswell).
>>
>>232676
nope, no change
>>
>>232677
I tried code.at(i) as well and still nothing

>>232679
PLease note that when running from visual studio it requires the Input.txt in the same folder as the root of the code and not in the debug/release folder.
>>
>>232684
do you mean with the .cpp?
>>
>>232686
Yeah, don't just drag it into the visual studio project, copy it to were the cpp files are
