What trouble?
What does it do that you didn't expect, or not do that you did?
Any error messages?
What have you tried to fix it?

Your main problem seems to be that you do no checks on the data you are reading. You should check the content of each line to ensure it contains the elements you expect. You should also check the result of your calls to IO.split_string; and why are you not using string.split()? And do not use Convert to convert strings to numbers, use the TryParse() method for each type; that way you will not be caught out by bad data. And finally, if you look at your data the lines containing the mass and weight values have a line number at the beginning which will confuse the converter: 10. 4.0 5.0 3.56 4.78 5.098 2.

I haven't heard about IO.split_string() method and i can't find it in MSDN documentation...
Can you share direct link into it?

If the file content has always got the same structure, you can to grab data into specific class. For example:
public class MyData
{
private System.Globalization.CultureInfo ci = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-US");
public string Name {get; set;}
public string Institute {get; set;}
public int X {get; set;}
public int Y {get; set;}
public string[] Headers {get; set;}
public double[][] DataMatrix {get; set;}
public MyData(string sFileName)
{
if(!File.Exists(sFileName))
throw new FileNotFoundException($"File '{Path.GetFileName(sFileName)}' does not exist!");
string[] lines = File.ReadAllLines(sFileName);
Name = lines[0];
Institute = lines[1];
X = Convert.ToInt32(lines[5].Split(' ')[0]);
Y = Convert.ToInt32(lines[5].Split(' ')[1]);
Headers = lines[7].Split(new string[]{" : "}, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries);
DataMatrix = lines.Skip(9)
.TakeWhile(l=>l.Length>0 && !l.StartsWith("."))
.Select(l=>l.Split(' ').Select(d=>Double.Parse(d, ci)).ToArray())
.ToArray();
}
}
Then usage will be very easy:
string filename= "C://user//abc.txt";
MyData md = new MyData(filename);
Console.WriteLine(md.Name);
Console.WriteLine(md.Institute);
Console.WriteLine("X = {0}, Y = {1}", md.X, md.Y);
double[] allMasses = md.DataMatrix.Select(m=>m[0]).ToArray();
foreach(double d in allMasses)
Console.WriteLine(d);
Good luck!

imho, the solution you really want requires you ... or someone else ... writing the code to serialize the data into XML where it can then be deserialized into an instance of a a Class, or added, by binding, to some grid UI.
If that's not possible, I am afraid you are stuck with the tedious task of implementing a line-by-line parser with error-checking per line, as Richard suggested.

It may be common practice. Is your filename slightly slanted?

Unless matrix is an actual class name, I think you wanted something like
MandW = new double[x,2];
Class names should by UpperCamelCase.
Also I'm not sure if you should call Read() in a constructor... let external code decide when does it want to do this

I would like to know if a toll exist to "inject" code in existing class. I'm thinking about a system working with attribute. These attributes are not used at compile or runtime but just to specify part of code I want to inject during coding.
For example attribute [LogThis]
[LogThis]
private void ConsoleTextBox_TextChanged(object sender, TextChangedEventArgs e)
{
consoleTextBox.ScrollToEnd();
}
Then I run a tool that will add log to all [LogThis] methods
[LogThis]
private void ConsoleTextBox_TextChanged(object sender, TextChangedEventArgs e)
{
log.Trace("starting ConsoleTextBox_TextChanged");
consoleTextBox.ScrollToEnd();
}
Does somthin similar exists?

The term you're looking for is "Aspect-Oriented Programming[^]", or "AOP".
There are a variety of tools which can do this, both free and commercial. There are also some articles here on CodeProject on the topic. For example: Aspect Oriented Programming in C# with RealProxy[^]

While you have the information you need to explore AOP tools: very full-featured commercial, like PostSharp [^] ; open-source, like Fody [^]; and, others mentioned on this thread ...
I wonder if there are other, simpler, techniques ... not based on Attributes and behind-the-scenes modification of Assemblies/IL code ... that could meet your needs ? These could include: use of #define compiler directives; run-time attaching/detaching EventHandlers.
If you want to see examples of these methods, just ask.
fyi: I use PostSharp, and it is an amazing tool-set.

hello Gurus,
i am very new to C#.
just to give you a little background of myself, i work as a teamlead for a sap abap team.
i wanted to create a very simple windows form to track the productivity of my team using c#
this is the pseudo code I wanted to implement:
1. input will be taken from a textbox (numeric in value)
2. if textbox input is found in excel worksheet, (where field code = textbox)
3. then, append the value to a datagridview and clear the textbox (for the next numeric input)
4. else, popup message "value not found in the excel worksheet".
my form contains:
1 textbox
1 datagridview
my worksheet looks like this:
code | description | field3 | field4
1 | some description | field3 | field4
The field "code" is my primary key.
hope someone replies. 
many many thanks,

I'm not sure what you are asking us to do. But if you do not know how to code, I would suggest sticking to Excel and building your form there.

Do yourself a favour, and don't use a spreadsheet - use a "proper" database (SQL Server, SQLite, Access, MySQL, ... whatever) - don't try and force a spreadsheet to do a database function.
While it's possible, it's a bit "I've got a hammer now how do I screw that desk together?".

Griff, while I find your intuition/insight always prescient, I think, in this case, more information about how Excel is used here (work-flow) would be valuable; I've posted a query to the OP. cheers, Bill

To respond to your query, I'd need to know:
1 Excel: who creates these Work/Books/Sheets; why are they used; who uses them; etc.
2 Why Excel rather than a database ?
3 What's the work-flow: how is data gathered from developers ?

Hello Bill,
Thank you so much for your reply.
to answer your queries:
1 Excel: who creates these Work/Books/Sheets; why are they used; who uses them; etc.
-----> originally, what i have i mind is, to implement 2 functionalities in my windows form. 1 for creation, and the other one is display.
for the creation part, this is already done, -i have already figured out how to append entries to the excel worksheet (using text boxes and a button). for the display however, i don't know how to validate the incident number (code field) against the existing entries in my worksheet, hence this thread is created. (as described in my OP).
as for the the 'why are they used',
-----> right now, the current tracker that was handed over to my team doesn't allow simultaneous update. (which is kind of -for the lack of a better word: dumb).
for 'who uses them'
------> my team is small - just 11 people.
2 Why Excel rather than a database ?
----> i am thinking of using excel, because, the current tracker that i have is made of excel (using macros and some vbs i believe). so i was thinking, it will be easier to migrate the existing entries that my team have created. (plus the original developer of our tracker already resigned. :P ).
3 What's the work-flow: how is data gathered from developers ?
----> the data is gathered from developers via creation functionality (which, as mentioned, i already implemented -thanks to this forum. .
i am really new to C#. and one of the reasons why i wanted to create the simple tracker is for me to learn the language as well.
hope to hear from you soon.

Let my see if I really understand your comments: are you the only person who somehow monitors your team member's coding, and creates the data entries ?
I keep thinking there is some automated process being used here, and that you are accessing some data store ? Wrong ?
cheers, Bill

Assuming that you want to show a specific part from the last line in the file, you can do it very easily.
There are two basic ways: use Substring, which extracts a specific portion from a string (good if your line format is static and never changes) or use a Regular Expression (good if the data moves around, changes position from line to line).
First, read all the lines:
string[] lines = File.ReadAllLines(@"C:\Text.txt");
You can identify the last line directly from that
string lastLine = lines[lines.Length - 1];
You can then extract the bit you want - I'll use substring:
string bitYouWant = lastLine.Substring(25, 9);
And print it:
Console.WriteLine(bitYouWant);

Thanks for the explanation. Why does the substring starts from 25 and end at 9 ? Is '9' the length?
|
|
|
|
|
Here is the documentation of the Substring method:
Substring(Int32, Int32)[^]
You could also use a regular expression to extract the value you are looking for:
Regex r = new Regex(
@"^CREATE from S\.\d\.\d\.\d{3} to (?<value>S\.\d\.\d\.\d{3}).*$"
);
string value = r.Match(lastLine).Groups["value"].Value;
while (!(success = Try()));

|
|
|
|
Does the while code needed?
|
|
|
|
|
No, the while loop is my signature
Sorry for that ambiguity.
while (!(success = Try()));
|
|
|
|

I think you forgot to add Console.ReadLine();
