Question

I need only one  C++ function . It's C++ don't write any other language.

Hello I need unzip function here is my zip function below. So I need the opposite function unzip.

Instructions:

The next tools you will build come in a pair, because one (zip) is a file compression tool, and

the other (unzip) is a file decompression tool.

The type of compression used here is a simple form of compression called run-length encoding (RLE). RLE is quite simple: when you encounter n characters of the same type in a row, the compression tool (zip) will turn that into the number n and a single instance of the character.

Thus, if we had a file with the following contents: aaaaaaaaaabbbb
the tool or Zip function would turn it (logically) into:
10a4b

So write the C++ unzip function that will turn 10a4b into aaaaaaaaaabbbb opposite of zip function. I'll make a txt file example like file.txt that will have 10a4b text once I will run your unzip function it will turn into aaaaaaaaaabbbb. I tested my zip function on terminal and it's working perfectly.

here is my zip function:

Full program with zip funcion with output

#include<iostream>
#include<string>
#include<fstream>

using namespace std;
string zip(const string & str)
{
   int i = str.size();
   string enc;

   for (int j = 0; j < i; ++j) {
       int count = 1;
       while (str[j] == str[j + 1]) {
           count++;
           j++;
       }
       enc += std::to_string(count);
       enc.push_back(str[j]);
   }
   return enc;
}
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
   ifstream in;
       // one argument
       if (argc<2) {
           cout << "Please enter command";
               return(-1);
       }
   // two arguments
   if (argc<3) {
       cout << "Please enter file name";
       return(-1);
   }
   in.open(argv[2]);
   if (in.bad()) {
       cout << "File not found";
       return(-1);
   }
   string line;
   // read each line
   while (getline(in, line))
   {
       // decode line
       string encode = zip(line);
       // print line
       cout << encode << endl;
   }
   return(0);
