C :: Fixing Size Of Array As Opposed To Using A Pointer

Oct 15, 2014

If I have an array and all I have is an upper limit on how big the array can get, and if the number of elements that get added can be considerably smaller than this limit, is it always the right choice to declare a pointer and just reallocate extra memory whenever the array grows? For instance, instead of declaring int a[max] I can declare a pointer int *a and than just realloc when I add elements.

C++ :: Size Of Char Array - Comparing Name To Another One (Pointer)

Jul 13, 2013

I have function that looks like this myfoo(char* Name) Now i want to compare this name to another one . But the another name is a pointer . This my code :

bool Tribe::RemoveSurvavior(char *H_Name) {
const char *p;
p=SurpointArr[i]->GetSurvivor_Name();
}

I need to compare if p is same as H_Name.

Mine is do it with for on each element but when i use sizeof it gives me size of char and not real size of the name.

C++ :: Fixing Array Index Out Of Bounds?

Dec 7, 2014

Design and implement the class myArray that solves the array index out of bound problem, and also allows the user to begin the array index starting at any integer, positive or negative. Every object of type myArray is an array of type int. During execution, when accessing an array component, if the index is out of bounds, the program must terminate with an appropriate error message. Consider the following statements:

myArray<int> list(5); // Line 1
myArray<int> myList(2,13); //Line 2
myArray<int> yourList(-5,9); // Line 3

The statement in Line 1 declares list to be an array of 5 components, the component type is int, and the componentst are : list[0], list[1]…list[4]; the statement in Line 2 declares mylist to be an array of 11 components, the component type is int, and the components are: mylist[2],…mylist[12].

This is what I have so far:

#ifndef H_myArray
#define H_myArray
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
template <class myArray>
class myArray
{
public:
private:
return 0;
};
#endif

C :: Pointer Size Increase - How Many Chars It Can Store

Dec 14, 2013

That code should make the size of the pointer (how many chars it can store) bigger but when i run it it show always 3 char positions while it should show N*M.

Code:
#include <stdio.h>#include <stdlib.h>
int main(void) {
int M, N, P, i;
scanf ("%d %d", &M, &N);
P = M * N;
char *c = malloc(P * sizeof(char));

C++ :: Virtual Table Pointer - Size Of A Class?

Apr 22, 2015

Here is an example,

Code:
class A {
public:
virtual void foo(){}
virtual void foo2(){}
virtual void foo3(){}
};
int main() {
A a;
int ret = sizeof(A);
return 0;
}

Basically object a contains a virtual table pointer which is of size 4 bytes. Since class A should have a virtual table which contains three pointers pointing to foo, foo2,foo3 separately. So the virtual table should be of size 12 bytes. I wonder where is virtual table located in memory?

C++ :: Fixing Circular Dependencies With Pointers

Dec 18, 2012

I've been making a project that requires different files to have access to objects declared in other files such that circular dependencies are created. I've done some research and discovered that pointers and forward declarations should be able to fix this.

Example:

File 1 declares variable x, must edit x and y

File 2 must edit x and y, declares variable y

I know this isn't the best example, as you could probably declare x and y in the same file, but please suffice it to say that I'm unable to do that in my project.

C :: Fixing Command Prompt File Input

Oct 21, 2014

Im writing program for a rail fence cipher that should run from the command prompt and take in two .txt files, one containing the key for how many rails there should be (between 1 and 25) and the other containing the message to be encrypted. Both of those txt files should be entered from the command prompt, taken in with the program's arguments, not asking the user for input I think I have the logistics of how to get the program to encrypt it worked out, but every time I try to run the program it keeps on crashing.

The program should run when I enter this:./railcipher samplekey.txt samplemessage.txt

I'm pretty sure my issue lies within my first few lines of code, with the main(), or with the FILE*, but I dont know what I would need to change it to for it to work properly.

Code:
#include<stdio.h>
#include<string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv[])

C :: Fixing User Input Errors In A For Loop

Mar 6, 2015

So I have to write a step in my program that reads in up to 8 variables. Simple, but if the User submits an invalid value, I have to give an error message and ask him to re-enter the value until he enters a valid number. Here's my while loop that works perfectly:

Code:

while (true) {
printf("
Enter the mark given by Judge 1: ");
scanf("%f", &m1);
if ((m1 >= 0.0) && (m1 <= 10.0)) {
break;
}

[code]...

I'm not sure what to write in the else statement to make the programme understand that it has to repeat the exact same step but without adding 1 to index. Is this possible or do I have to suck it up and just use while loops instead? I'm very new to programming.

C :: Keep Track Of Size Of Blocks Of Memory That A Pointer Points To - Malloc Is Stuck On 8

Jan 8, 2014

I'm trying to keep track of the size of blocks of memory that a pointer points to. No matter what I do, this code below always outputs the integer 8.

If I change 1000 to 5, I still get 8. If I change it to 0, I get 8... If I change it to -1, I get 8. If I change int *a to double *a, I get 8. If I take away the & symbol, I get 8. If I use *& instead, I get 8.

Why? I want it to output 1000. If I change that to 500, I want it to output 500.

int *a;
a = malloc(1000 * sizeof(int));

int j = sizeof(&a);
printf("%d", j);

I want to build my skills where I can allocate, inspect and change memory sizes.

C/C++ :: Integer Division As Opposed To Real Division?

Sep 28, 2013

I have the following details
double x= 1.5
double y= -1.5
int m= 20
int n= 4

my question is 5 * x - n / 5 at which what would n / 5 equal to, I think its zero since its integer division? or would the 5 be considered a real number?

C++ :: Passing 2D Array To A Function Where Size Of Array Is Not Known At Runtime

Jun 27, 2014

I'm wondering if it is possible to pass a 2d array to a function where the size of the array is not known at runtime.

I've tried

function ( array[][6] ) ;

But the size of the array has to be constant so it cannot be declared later.

I've tried using a template but you still have to declare the size of the array at runtime. Is this even possible at all?

The only other way I can think of is using a dynamic 2d array but how to create one and manipulate it.

C/C++ :: Getting The Size Of Array?

Jun 12, 2014

Here is what I've tried:

int numbers[] = {8, 2, 0, 4, 100, 5};
for(int i = 0; i < sizeof(numbers); i++){
cout << numbers[i] << endl;
}

However the results in the console is: 8 2 0 4 ,What am I doing wrong? Am I using the wrong built in function or something? I googled this and one of the links that came up stated to just do something like

arrayName.size()

but that didnt work for me either...

[URL]

Also, I know that I just enter the size of the list manually, in this case make i < 6 but I still want to know if there is a built in function or something.

C :: Sorting Array Of Size 10

Nov 18, 2013

I am trying to sort an array of size 10. If I was given:

Code: int List[Size] = {29, 11,12,10,3,26,13,15,19,2};

I need the program to sort all the odd integers and put the even integers to the back of the array. Like so:

Index: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Value:29 11 3 13 15 19 12 10 26 2

And it returns the number of even integers in the List. In this case it returns 4. All I am given to start with is

Code:
int evensToRead(int* const List, const int Size){
//body
}

C++ :: How To Get Size Of Dynamic Array

Jun 12, 2013

I remember in C++, when a dynamic array is allocated, the size of this array is stored right before the array in memory. Therefore compiler knows exactly how long, when this array is deleted.

Do all compilers store the size this way? Is it a safe method to get the size of a dynamic array?

Here is a example code, it works fine on Visual Studio 2012.

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
class dummy {
public:
dummy() {
cout<<"dummy created"<<endl;

C++ :: Using Array With Dynamic Size?

Feb 6, 2013

arrays with dynamic sizes. That being said, I'm working with a simple code which seems to work just fine, my only concern is that once I display the 'char array', not only displays the user's inputs but some extra data, symbols and what not.

why, if to my understanding the first user's input already sets the size of the array

#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;
