Question

The file that we use in this question is line-oriented, such that in each line there are two data items: one word for the city name and the other is the population of that city. An example file structure is below: Hatay 456000 Kirsehir 124500 Ankara 4783000 Istanbul 9768000 Mugla 890000 Izmir 3250000 Write a void function that takes an input file stream, say inputFile, and a string, say searchName, as parameters. We assume that inputFile contains some city-population pairs in the format explained above. There could be any number of such pairs (i.e. lines) in the file. In other words, you cannot make any assumption about the number of city-population pairs in the file. (Using C++) Your function should search through inputFile from the beginning to find out whether there is a line with searchName as the city name. If found, then the function should display its population on the screen. If not found, then your function should display "UNKNOWN" on the screen.
