How do I properly use unordered_map? - string

I'm writing a program that is supposed to count amount of times a string 3 characters long appears. I have a loop that makes substrings of 3 characters from a larger string, but when I try to insert them into an unordered_map, I get a bunch of errors. What am I doing wrong?
int a =0;
std::string subs= "";
std::unordered_map <std::string,int> mapp = {};
int count=0;
for(int i=0; i<ss.length(); i++){
subs= ss.substr(a,k);
if(subs.length()<k){
return -1;
}
std::cout << "Substring: " << subs << std::endl;
a++;
mapp.insert(std::make_pair<std::string,int>(subs,count));
}

MPI_Gather Vector of Objects

I am writing a mpich program for parallel sorting. I need to use the mpi_gather interface, but it doesn't support passing vector of objects. So I use boost_serialization.
Implementation
I use boost_serialization to serialize the vector.
std::string serial_str;
boost::iostreams::back_insert_device<std::string> inserter(serial_str);
boost::iostreams::stream<boost::iostreams::back_insert_device<std::string>> s(inserter);
boost::archive::binary_oarchive send_ar(s);
//samples is the vector<object>
send_ar << samples;
s.flush();
int len = serial_str.size();
Then, I use mpi_gather to send all the serial_str to root process(data_recv).
char *data_recv = NULL;
if(myid == 0){
data_recv = (char*)malloc(sizeof(char) * (len_all+1));
data_recv[len_all] = '\0';
}
MPI_Gather((void*)serial_str.data(), len, MPI_BYTE, data_recv, len, MPI_BYTE, 0, MPI_COMM_WORLD);
Finally, I deserialize the data in data_recv.
boost::iostreams::basic_array_source<char> device(data_recv,len_all);
boost::iostreams::stream<boost::iostreams::basic_array_source<char>> s(device);
boost::archive::binary_iarchive recv_ar(s);
std::vector<mdata> recv_vec;
recv_ar >> recv_vec;
My implementation is based on How to send a set object in MPI_Send
Problem
I can't deserialize the data in data_recv correctly. I printed the data_recv, then I found the data in data_recv is incorrectly formatted after mpi_gather. The second archive covered the first.(marked in bold)

The correct format should be:(no overlap so I can deserialize)

Question
Why did this happen? Is it because the mpi_gather isn't compatible with c++ object?
If someone could help me out, it would solve my big problem.
Thank you!

Why VS 2015 is giving me the exception at the end of the code below?

I am somewhat new to c++, our class only went over debugging briefly. This is probably my 10th do over, I have been over it a week, have done plenty of research over the web and I just don't understand debugging enough to figure out how to fix my code. The program is supposed to real a file like this:
TTFTFTTTFTFTFFTTFTTF
ABC54102 T FTFTFTTTFTTFTTF TF
DEF56278 TTFTFTTTFTFTFFTTFTTF
ABC42366 TTFTFTTTFTFTFFTTF
ABC42586 TTTTFTTT TFTFFFTF
When it reads the file it's supposed to output the student ids, what they answered on each question and the grade for each student. My problem is, I don't know much about debugging and VS keeps throwing an exception at the end of the code I provided. I am just learning how to use dynamic arrays so I know it has something to do with my use of them because I had the program working fine in my other c++ class but I had to change it around to use dynamic arrays for this project.
What's wrong with my program? I have researched the web and reread the chapters in the book over and over and I cannot figure it out.

Specific Characters in Palindrome Program Do not work

Here is my code. The list of characters that do not "work" and continue to say that they are palindromes if wrapped around the cin still say they are correct. The list of characters that don't work are:
single quotes, double quotes, commas, periods, forward slashes, back slashes, dashes, exclamation points, # symbols, # symbols, $ symbols, % symbols, ^ symbols, & symbols, * symbols (asterisk), equals symbols, + symbol
int main()
{
int k = 1;
int i;
int length, halflength;
int yesno = 1;
char string [81];
char end[81] = "END";
while (k = 1)
{
cout << "Please enter a string of characters. " << endl;
cout << "Enter \"END\" in all caps to exit the program." << endl;
cin.getline(string, 81);
if (strcmp(string, "END") == 0)
{
return 0;
}
length = strlen(string);
halflength = length / 2;
for (i = 0; i < halflength; i++)
{
if (string[i] != string[length - i - 1]) // comparing
yesno = 0;
break;
}
if (yesno) {
cout << "You have successfully entered a palindrome." << endl;
}
else
{
cout << "You have not entered a palindrome." << endl;
return main();
}
}
}
I am unsure how to fix this, as a palindrome can not only be a sequence of letters, but a sequence of characters. If there is an easier way to compare the lines, then I would appreciate the help, as I have spent some time being frustrated at this.
your program says,"You have successfully entered a palindrome." for mlaylam!
the problem is not having the break statement in the right place.
the block should be enclosed within braces, otherwise(as you've done), after checking the first character and last, the for loop will break thereby giving wrong result.
if (string[i] != string[length - i - 1]){ // comparing
yesno = 0;
break;
}

Removing from and Shuffling a C++ vector

I am using a vector to represent a deck of cards in c++. I am having trouble shuffling the deck and removing the first element.
Shuffling does not work, the vector keeps the same order. I call reseed once in my program, in the constructor of Deck. int random is different every time. I have tried time(NULL) and time(0). Shuffling:
void Deck::reseed() {
srand(time(NULL));
}
void Deck::shuffle() {
int random = rand();
for(int i = 0; i < random; i++) {
std::random_shuffle(deckVec.begin(), deckVec.end());
}
}
Removing does not work, the last element is removed instead of the first (for example, element 16 is erased and not element 0). Removing:
Card Deck::dealCard() {
//other code...
Card& tempCard = deckVec.front();
std::vector<Card>::iterator temp = deckVec.begin(); //This if for debugging, and
//this pointer is correct
deckVec.erase(deckVec.begin());
return tempCard; //the correct card is returned
}
Any help would be appreciated.
-----------Update----------------
code for printing before and after shuffle:
cout << deck.toString(); //output: Suit: Clubs, Rank: 2
// Suit: Clubs, Rank: 3 ...
//shuffle if there are three arguments
if(argc == 3)
deck.shuffle();
cout << deck.toString();//output: Suit: Clubs, Rank: 2
// Suit: Clubs, Rank: 3 ... (identical to above)
It's difficult to show dealCard. Basically, I call it here:
void operator<<(Hand& hand, Deck& deck) {
hand.addCard(deck.dealCard());
}
Then I print out the contents. The output is: C2 C2 C2 C2 ... for the 2 of Clubs. They are all the first card in the deck.
for(int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
for(unsigned int j = 0; j < hands.size(); j++) {
try {
hands.at(j) << deck;
} catch(int& i) {
cout << "no cards left" << endl;
}
}
}
//print out the contents
cout << deck.toString() << endl;
for(unsigned int i = 0; i < hands.size(); i++) {
cout << "Hand " << i << ": ";
cout << hands.at(i).toString() << endl;
}

c++ program of sorting names

Instruction for program:
Read the list of names from “names.txt” in the format “First Last”.
Sort the names based upon typical alphabetic order of peoples names based upon last name then first name.
Write the sorted list to a file called “sortednames.txt” in the format “Last, First”.
Here's my code: file data was stored in fullname array but now I am stuck on how to flip the first and last name in the array??
int main()
{
const int MAXNAMES = 100;
int value = 0;
string fullname[MAXNAMES];
ifstream inFile;
inFile.open("names.txt"); //open the file to excess the rainfall data
if (inFile.fail()) // testing the file
{
cout << "Error opening file. Please check that the file currently `enter code here`exist" << endl;
exit(1);
}
cout << "File successfully open" << endl;
while(!inFile.eof())
{
while(value < 100)
{
getline(inFile,fullname[value]);
value++;
}
}
return 0;
}
To flip the name around you could do the following:
string myString;
int spacePosition;
value = 0;
while(value < 100) {
myString = fullname[value];
spacePosition = myString.find(" ");
fullname[value] = myString.substr(spacePostion) + " " + myString.substr(0, spacePostion -1);
}
