Counting the input numbers from a text file in C++

How do I count the input integers/numbers from a text file that is separated by spaces. I need to know how many numbers does the user inputted via file not from the console.

Here is what I did. But it counts all the numbers instead.

// Counting of Arrival Time //

ifstream arrival_counting;
arrival_counting.open("arrival.in");
if (arrival_counting.fail()) {
    cout << "Input file opening failed.\n" << endl;
    exit(1);
}

int count_arr = 0;
char next1;
arrival_counting.get(next1);
while(!arrival_counting.eof()) {
    if(isdigit(next1)) {
        count_arr++;
    }
    arrival_counting.get(next1);
}

// Counting of Service time //

ifstream service_counting;
service_counting.open("service.in");
if (service_counting.fail()) {
    cout << "Input file opening failed.\n" << endl;
    exit(1);
}

int count_ser = 0;
char next2;
service_counting.get(next2);
while(!service_counting.eof()) {
    if(isdigit(next2)) {
        count_ser++;
    }
    service_counting.get(next2);
}

cout << "ARRIVAL: " << count_arr << endl;
cout << "SERVICE: " << count_ser << endl;
arrival_counting.close();
service_counting.close();

arrival.in

12 31 63 95 99 154 198 221 304 346 411 455 537

service.in

40 32 55 48 18 50 47 18 28 54 40 72 12

You can count the numbers that are present in a file in one line.

Here you are.

#include <iterator>

//..

std::ifstream arrival_counting("arrival.in");

if (arrival_counting.fail()) {
    std::cout << "Input file opening failed.\n" << std::endl;
    exit(1);
}

auto n = std::distance( std::istream_iterator<int>( arrival_counting ),
                        std::istream_iterator<int>() );

ifstream arrival_counting("arrival.in");
if (arrival_counting.fail()) {
    cout << "Input file opening failed.\n" << endl;
    exit(1);
}

int count_arr = 0;
int next1;
while(arrival_counting >> next1) {
    count_arr++;
}
