CSV file management using C++


Last Updated : 25 Jun, 2020
CSV is a simple file format used to store tabular data such as a spreadsheet
or a database. CSV stands for Comma Separated Values. The data fields in
a CSV file are separated/delimited by a comma (‘, ‘) and the individual rows
are separated by a newline (‘\n’). CSV File management in C++ is similar to
text-type file management, except for a few modifications.

This article discusses about how to create, update and delete records in a
CSV file:

Note: Here, a reportcard.csv file has been created to store the student’s roll
number, name and marks in math, physics, chemistry and biology.

1. Create operation:
The create operation is similar to creating a text file, i.e. input data from
the user and write it to the csv file using the file pointer and appropriate
delimiters(‘, ‘) between different columns and ‘\n’ after the end of each
row.

CREATE

void create()
{
// file pointer
fstream fout;

// opens an existing csv file or creates a new file.


fout.open("reportcard.csv", ios::out | ios::app);

cout << "Enter the details of 5 students:"


<< " roll name maths phy chem bio";
<< endl;

int i, roll, phy, chem, math, bio;


string name;

// Read the input


for (i = 0; i < 5; i++) {

cin >> roll


>> name
>> math
>> phy
>> chem
>> bio;

// Insert the data to file


fout << roll << ", "
<< name << ", "
<< math << ", "
<< phy << ", "
<< chem << ", "
<< bio
<< "\n";
}
}
