c++ moving to next element in a file.txt [duplicate]

Answer 1

You can do the following

int num = 0;
while(myfile >> num || !myfile.eof()) {
    if(myfile.fail()) { // Number input failed, skip the word
        myfile.clear();
        string dummy;
        myfile >> dummy;
        continue;
    }
    cout << num << endl; // Do whatever necessary with the next number read
}
