Reading input file with different data types not separated by spaces

Dec 6, 2016 at 2:34am
So I've been scouring the internet for awhile now and have read pretty much everything that has come up, but I'm afraid I still haven't found exactly what I'm looking for. Maybe I'm describing it incorrectly in my searches on Google? As I'm still a noob, that's probably the case. Basically, my question is - how do I read an input file containing a text with different data types not separated by spaces i.e.,

B45897 18 9

? Also, not only am I trying to read this, but I'm also trying to separate the char (B) from the next five integers because I need to do something else with it later.
As I mentioned, I've read quite a bit and I found that I can use getline, i.e.,

while( ! getline(inf, name, '|').eof() )

but if possible, I'd rather keep the delimiter out of my input file. This is where I'm stuck.

Thank you in advance.

What exactly are the data types in your example?
