C :: How To Declare Two Dimensional Array Using A Pointer To A Pointer
Jul 16, 2013
This is a sample program that declares a Matrix as a structure with an array as a pointer to a pointer. The following program is supposed to store a matrix in the structure "_Matrix" and later print the matrix just entered but it fails giving me a "segmentation fault". The sample code is given below
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
struct _Matrix {
int row_size;
int col_size;
int **mat;

I am trying to learn how to declare a pointer to an array of characters. And here is the code i have written. But iam getting a warning saying assignment from incompatible pointer type p = s.
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
char (*p)[10]; // pointer to an array of 10chars
char s[10] = "Hello"
p = s;
printf("%s",p);
return 0;
}

int sum(int (*ar2)[4], int size);
// I dont know what the ar2 is going on
int main(){
int data[3][4] = {{1,2,3,4},{5,6,7,8},{9,10,11,12}};
int total = sum(data, 3)
return 0;
}

dynamically allocated arrays. int (*ttt)[2][10]; If I'm not mistaken this declares a pointer (that's all). This pointer has an intrinsic shape that makes it easier to access row, column without doing my own math to calculate the offset.
ttt = malloc(2 * 10 * sizeof(int));
So I should be able to access elements like this: ttt[i][j].
ttt[i][j] = 123;
But the compiler says: error C2440: '=' : cannot convert from 'int' to 'int [10]'...how to go about accessing a monolithic block of allocated memory using 2 or more dimensions, using some sort of casting to a known shaped array if possible. As opposed to doing i * cols + j type stuff.

I write these code in 2 different ways and I get the same result. I just want to make sure that they both are for declare a pointer using "auto"
The first one:
int varName = 10;
auto var1 = &varName;
cout << var1 << endl; //prints, varName address
cout << *var1 << endl; //prints, varName value
The second one:
int varName = 10;
auto *var2 = &varName;
cout << var2 << endl; //prints, varName address
cout << *var2 << endl; //prints, varName value
It doesn't matter if I put dereference operator or not, I still get the same result. I just want to make sure that var1 and var2 are both a pointer.

this question would their be a different process if they asked "declare and initialize a pointer to the variable int cost[N][N]" Here's what I have so far
[#include<stdio.h>
int main() {
int a; // Step 1
int *ptr; // Step 2
a = cost; // Step 3
ptr = &a; // Step 4
return(0);

I am migrating a scientific code from Java to C++.
What's wrong with the two functions? I can use the int** like a two dimensional array but not the Agent**.
I receive this error: "No operator = matches this operand".
(I have allocated two dimensional arrays for objectSpace and agentSpace somewhere else).
Code:
int** objectSpace;
Agent** agentSpace;
void Space::removeAgentAt(Point p) {
agentSpace[p.x][p.y] = NULL;
}
void Space::putAgentTo(Agent agent, Point newP) {
agentSpace[newP.x][newP.y] = agent;
}

i have been fiddling with pointers but I don't understand how the proper syntax is written when I want to acces an element of an array through a pointer to a pointer...The code is all mostly just random bs for learning purposes. I marked the problem "// THIS LINE"
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdarg.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#define MAX_DATA 100
int find_average(char *iden, ...) {

I have the following code :
Code:
#ifndef TDYNAMICARRAY_H
#define TDYNAMICARRAY_H
namespace Massive {
template<class T>
T **AllocateDynamic2DArray(int nRows,int nCols)
[Code] .....
I wish to know how to traverse or loop through a dynamic 2D array using pointer to pointer as returned by the code above. Like I would in a static T[20][20] 2D array.

I was having problems changing the value of my head node I passed it as an argument as head which would be the address. The parameter was defined as struct node *head. like this
bool deleteNode(struct node *head, struct node *delptr)
I tried manipultaing pointer values to change head node value but it did not work. I saw some code online which used pointer to pointers(in code below) to change head node value it worked I dont fully understand why. Would like better understanding of why.
Would also like to know why the argument call needed &head instead of just head.
remove = deleteNode(&head,found); opposed to remove = deleteNode(head,found);
#include "stdafx.h"
#include<iostream>
struct node{

I am attempting to implement function pointers and I am having a bit of a problem.
See the code example below; what I want to be able to do is call a function pointer from another pointer.
I'll admit that I may not be explaining this 100% correct but I am trying to implement the code inside the main function below.
class MainObject;
class SecondaryObject;
class SecondaryObject {

I have to write a program to print pascals triangle and stores it in a pointer to a pointer , which I am not entirely sure how to do. I also have to write the file and read it, then create a binary file. Assignment is attached. I am not the best with programming and especially with pointers. I will post my code below.
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
void writePascalTriangle(char *fileName, int heightOfTriangle, int **triangle) {
FILE *fp;
fp=fopen("writePascalTriangle.txt", "w");

I'm making a system like twitter for class called ShoutOut.com I want to be able to get the PublicShoutOut pointer pointed to by the start iterator and assign it to firstShoutOutToDisplay and secondShoutOutToDisplay because I need that in order to pass the pointers to one of my functions. When I step through the debugger the values in start are all default values like "" and so are the values in this->firstShoutOutToDisplay but the message that start points to is being output just fine.
EDIT: got rid of irrelevant code. Am I using the correct syntax to do this?
if (start != finish) {
//getting these because a shoutout needs to be passed to the function that displays
//options for a shoutout
this->firstShoutoutToDisplay = (*start);

I have a function:
const void insertStuff(const void *key, const int value){
// I want to convert the void pointer into one
// of three types of pointers(int, string, or double)
switch(value){
case 0:
int *intPtr = key;
[Code] .....
But this causes an error of: "crosses initialization of int*intPtr"
What's the correct way of implementing this?

i really don't know why has a error in my code, that pass a pointer of pointer (name of a matrix with 2 dimensions). Here is the source code of a simple example where appears segmentation fault when execute (but compiles normal):
#include <stdio.h>
#define LINHAS 3
#define COLUNAS 5
float a[LINHAS][COLUNAS];
void zeros(float **p,float m, float n){
int i,j;
for(i=0;i<m;i++)

In pseudocode and in C code, declare two 1-dimensional parallel arrays of Integers to store the age and weight of a group of people that will hold the information of up to 10 people. Use a For loop to iterate through the array and input the values. This is the code i have, but my array is showing up as 11 and not 10?
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
//Define Variables
float Age_Data[10],Weight_Data[10];
float Age_Input,Weight_Input;

I need to make a copy of a string that is defined by char *full and copy it into a different pointer defined by char *duplicate. I have written code to do this however it will not work and i cannot figure it out my code is as follows:
char *duplicate = (char *)malloc(strlen(full) + 1);
strcpy(duplicate, full); /*Make second version of full*/
char *Ptr = strtok(duplicate, " "); /*Split duplicate up*/
I have a full program written but i know this is where the problem is because i have used printf statements to see where the program fails. I get no errors and it compiles successfully but it hits this point of the program and it just stops and windows automatically shuts down the program.
char *full is pointing to:
"To be, or not to be? That is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,"
I need to duplicate the string because i need to use strtok but i will need the original string later on so i need an unaltered version.

I'm trying to call a function via a function pointer, and this function pointer is inside a structure. The structure is being referenced via a structure pointer.
Code:
position = hash->(*funcHash)(idNmbr);
The function will return an int, which is what position is a type of. When I compile this code,
I get the error: error: expected identifier before ( token.
Is my syntax wrong? I'm not sure what would be throwing this error.

I create an instance of a base class (not derived class) and assign it to base class pointer. Then, I convert it to a pointer to a derived class and call methods on it.
why does it work, if there is a virtual table?
when will it fail?
// TestCastWin.cpp : Defines the entry point for the console application.//
#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>
class B
{
public:
B(double x, double y) : x_(x), y_(y) {}
double x() const { return x_; }

"
#include <stdio.h>
struct datastructure {
char character;
};
void function(struct datastructure** ptr);
[Code] ....
These codes give these errors:
error: request for member 'character' in '* ptr', which is of non-class type 'datastructure*'
error: request for member 'character' in '* ptr', which is of non-class type 'datastructure*'
These errors are related to
"
*ptr->character='a';
printf("Ptr: %c",*ptr->character);
"
I want to access "character" data inside the structure "trial" by a pointer to pointer "ptr" inside function "function",but I couldn't find a way to do this.

In my refference book I have got a example with a part saying to access the a[4][0] element of the array (named a) with pointer this can be written:
*((int*)a+4)
I wonder if the cast is really required. The book says it is required so that the pointer arithmetic can be done properly. However I am not sure about it. When I work with pointers defined by myself I don't use casts similar to this one. Is there a difference between a self defined pointer and array name?

I have written this code, and at first glance it does what I want, however I am worried that
a) I am overwriting the array that is apssed from chord.getPattern()
b) Im getting a memory leak that I want to get rid of, and
c) is there generally a /what is the neater way to do it:
Code:
uint8_t* ChordBuilder::invert(uint8_t count, Chord chord) {
temp = chord.getPattern();
chord.invert(true);
//TODO count is how many times to invert. Moves root aswell however
for (uint8_t i = 0; i < count; i++){
[Code] ....
temp is a member variable of ChordBuilder - and is expressed as: Code: uint8_t* temp; I dont want the pattern that chord stores, and passes with getPattern() to change - I fear it is at the moment?
I would rather not use the "new" but I cant think how to get rid of it, however Im not sure where I would need to put the "delete"?

What is the correct method of declaring pointer to multidimensional array
Code:
int array[3][4];
int *p = array;
The above code works but it shows warning. Is it an invalid way of using the pointer? the array is an address then why am i getting warning?

I have the following situation:
Code:
void myFun(float *pfMyPtr) {
float Val[] = {0.234, 0,432, 0.322, 0762, 0.984};
pfMyPtr = Val;
}
int main() {
float *pfPtr;
pfPtr = (float*) calloc (5,sizeof(float));
myFun(pfPtr);
}
I would like pfPtr to contain the values of array Val. What am I missing here?

int * ptr = new int[5];
p += 2; //p now stores address of 3rd element in array
delete [] p;
what will be deleted??? all 5 elements or just 3rd, 4th and 5th elements of array(in result making a memory leak)

Why would you ever assign a pointer to an existing array?Take this link for example. URL....I understand that pointers use dynamic memory allocation so they are much more flexible then a built in array, but if you already have an existing array, don't you already have static memory allocation for that array? Why bother assigning a pointer? Regardless of the pointer, doesn't the program still allocate static memory to the array anyway?
