Read a file with numbers and add these up

[TrickKiste]

I have a text file which look like this. I'd like to add these all up to get the sum, but can't seem to figure it out Any tips on how I can do this (sure it's really easy but I can't think of it).

Best post a copy from file, never know if there are TAB, LF, CR, CRLF ending the lines otherwise.

You can read the file line by line (look at the helpfile for FileReadLine), and then add each number to the sum (starting to 0)

$sum = 0

While 1

 $line = FileReadLine(......)

 $sum += Number($line)

WEnd

ConsoleWrite($sum)

You can also use _FileReadToArray and make a For...Next loop

You will need the help file and...

_FileReadToArray()
Int()/Number()
+
=
Loop e.g. For

Here one trick(box):
 

Global $aZahlen = StringSplit(FileRead(@ScriptDir & "\Zahlen.txt"), @CRLF, 2), $i, $iSumme
For $i = 0 To UBound($aZahlen) - 1
    $iSumme += $aZahlen[$i]
Next
MsgBox(0, "Summe", $iSumme)

Keep in mind, the below example won't help with "big numbers"

Func _sumFile($sFile)
    
    Local $sFRead = $sFile
    If FileExists($sFRead) Then
        $sFRead = FileRead($sFile)
    EndIf
    
    Local $aNums = StringRegExp($sFRead, "\d+(?:\.d+)?", 3)
    If @error Then Return SetError(1, 0, 0)
    
    Local $iSum = 0
    For $i = 0 To UBound($aNums) - 1
        $iSum += Number($aNums[$i])
    Next
    
    Return $iSum
EndFunc

Thanks you guys!

FileRead()

Stringreplace( $String, @CRLF, "+")

Number($String)

Tada!!!

The issue with those who have suggested splitting at @CRLF, is what if the file has line-feed as the EOL char?

Nice.

 

Take an internet point from the internet cupboard.

Brilliant idea but one line is not correct!

 

Instead of Number($String) you have to use Execute($String)

 

Global $sAddition = Stringreplace(FileRead(@ScriptDir & "\Zahlen.txt"), @CRLF, "+")
MsgBox(0, "Summe", Execute($sAddition))
