I have a function that accepts std::iostream&, reads line from it with std::getline, puts in into std::stringstream and parses with std::getline with separator. I pass ifstream into this function and in the loop it parses entire csv. It works 100% fine with mvsc and mingw, x64 or x86, but here, for some reason, every line gets 1 additional symbol with code 13 at the end before ‘\0’. ASCII table says its “carriage return” symbol. However, it does not appear with any other compiler even when I am reading the same file with the same encoding standard. What could cause this problem?
Full code is probably too big for the forum and hopefully is not necessary
No, its definitely is not a BOM. As I understand, it is a ‘\r’ symbol, it is used to move cursor to the start of a line. Of course, it shouldn’t be in the file, but here it caused weird behaviour. For example, this code with value = 11.00 from the file:
std::cout << "Double to check: \"" << value << "\"\n";
produced this output:
"ouble to check: "11.00
I downloaded the file from the site, just to double-check it, and my original code still works perfectly fine on my system, so the problem should be in the input system

Different operating systems represent line endings in files slightly differently, some devices use \n, I believe some use \r and some use \r\n, so this might be to do with Replit’s virtual machines and what operating system they use.
