    istream_iterator with for loop

    Hello,
    I have added the following function, just for learning about stls . Not professional code, so please bear with me

    Code:
    #include <cstdio>
    #include <vector>
    #include <iostream>
    #include <algorithm>
    
    #include <iostream>
    #include "string"
    #include <vector>
    #include "sstream"
    #include "iterator"
    #include "algorithm"
    using namespace std;
    // Write your Student class here
    class Student
    {
    public:
    	vector<int> scores;
    	int sum;
    public:
    	Student() :scores(0), sum(0) {}
    
    	int calculateTotalScore() { return sum; }
    
    	void input()
    	{
    		string str;
    
    		std::getline(cin, str);
    
    		if (str.empty())
    			std::getline(cin, str);
    
    		std::stringstream ss(str);
    		copy(istream_iterator<int>(ss), istream_iterator<int>(), back_inserter(scores));
    		for_each(scores.begin(), scores.end(), [this](int p) {sum += p; });
    		//for_each(istream_iterator<int>(ss), istream_iterator<int>(), [this](int p) {sum += p; });
    	}
    };
    int main() {
    	int n; // number of students
    	cin >> n;
    
    	//cin.ignore();
    	Student *s = new Student[n]; // an array of n students
    
    	for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
    		s[i].input();
    	}
    
    	// calculate kristen's score
    	int kristen_score = s[0].calculateTotalScore();
    
    	// determine how many students scored higher than kristen
    	int count = 0;
    	for (int i = 1; i < n; i++) {
     		int total = s[i].calculateTotalScore();
    		if (total > kristen_score) {
    			count++;
    		}
    	}
    
    	// print result
    	cout << count;
    
    	return 0;
    }
    Here i have a doubt why the red commented line doesnot work !!!.
    Also, my doubt about cin and getline ignoring newline..I am bit confused about the input delimiters

    like lets say:

    line1\nline2\nline3\n.

    How the getline and cin work ? I guess entire input is read as buffer and assigned to each getline/cin ?

    thanks a lot

    Re: istream_iterator with for loop

    That line works just fine! That's not the problem. If you're reading from a file and you read all the data, what happens to the file state? When you get to the end of the file, can you read again from the beginning? A string stream is treated 'like a file stream'.

    Code:
    ss.clear();
    ss.seekg(0);
    for_each(istream_iterator<int>(ss), istream_iterator<int>(), [this](int p) {sum += p; });

    re getline/>>

    getline() reads all characters up to the specified delim char (default \n) and removes the delim char.

    >> ignores all prefix white space and reads the succeeding chars up to the next white space char. It doesn't remove the white space char.
