C :: Segmentation Faults When Trying To Modify A Character Array
Apr 27, 2013
I've initialized a character array in my main, and passed it onto one of my functions convertToPostfix(char infix[], char postfix[]). It isn't a constant read only array (constant char*) ive explicitly initialized it to char postfix[] = "";
Code:
if ((nextChar > 47) && (nextChar < 58)){ //if its a digit
postfix[++postfixIndex] = nextChar;
while (infix[i + 1] > 47 && infix[i + 1] < 58){
nextChar = infix[++i];
postfix[++postfixIndex]=nextChar;//segmentation fault when assigning from infix to postfix**
}

I am unsure how to write a function which modifies the content of the 1D character array and puts all of the letter it contains into uppercase. the following are the letters which i am trying to convert.
char text[MAX+1] = {'T', 'e', 's', 't', 'e', 'r', EOT};
The output to this should look like T E S T E R EOT

void main() {
unsigned int j=0, max=9;
char num[100] , str1[100], str2[max];

i want to modify value of whole array by passing it to a function and make each value of array multiplied by 3 ,return the value to main and print it using pointer.
error : invalid Lvalue is the error
Code:
#include<stdio.h>
main()
{
int i,arr[10];
for (i=0;i<=9;i++)
{
printf("Enter value of arr[%d] : ",i);
scanf("%d",&arr[i]);

In case the question was not very clear. Say I have the following code:
int sum(int * x, size_t N){
int sx;
/* returns sum of elements in x */
return sx;
[Code] ....
I'm curious to know whether there is a way that ensures a function does not modify the memory pointed to by a pointer.

Write a program that reads in the names and the ages of ten people. Store these data in two arrays (make sure that the entered names are not longer than the array size you choose). Then produce a table of ten lines, with each line giving the name and age of a person along with the (positive or negative) deviation of that person's age from the average age. The code I wrote to fill in the arrays looks as follows
Code:
#include<stdlib.h>
#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{ // begin main()
// array length
[Code]....
When I compile it, it gives me warnings that few of the variables I declared aren't used, but that is not affecting the program at all. When I run the program, it allows me to pass the names and ages into the arrays, but when it comes to displaying them, I'm getting a 'Segmentation fault'. I used very similar code in Java to write the program, and it worked fine so what is the problem with C then?

i want to enter a URL in as a string, and extract just the URL part.
eg: Code: input: URL....
output: URL....
Input: URL....
output: URL....
part of our header file which we cannot edit (the url is always less than 140 characters):
Code:
char url[140];
function i am having problems with
Code: void init_url(char new_url[])
{
/*
This function sets the variable url to new_url and url_size to the number of characters in the url
It also initializes url_error_flag
}
[code]....
whenever i try a URL like the second one above with no '?' i'm getting a segmentation fault error which is becase i'm trying to access an invalid index. i'm not sure what an array is initialized to when i do not explicitly assign it anything, for example
Code:
char values[140] = {0};
i've read it depends on whether it is a global vs local array or something? i know this could all be fixed with simply assigning the array values to 0 but i'm not allowed to edit the header file.

This is a homework assignment where I have to read a file into a dynamically allocated 2d array. The file format is
10
Jim 3.6
Jake 4.0
Will 3.0
Sara 3.4
Mike 2.5
Ellen 2.9
Melissa 3.9
Eric 3.8
John 3.5
Beth 3.9
where 10 is the number of students followed by the students and the gpa's. There is more to the program but I have not implemented it yet because I am getting a segmentation fault. The output I am getting when I print the array is
Jim 3.6
Jake 4.0
Will 3.0
Sara 3.4
Segmentation fault
I can see where the problem lies. If I raise value for row when I am allocating the rows of the array, all of the names print. I just do not see why I need to. From my understanding the row * sizeof(char*) should give me enough room for 10 entrie.
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
void sort();
int main()

This function should replace all instances of a character in a given character array, while returning the amount of characters changed, but I keep getting a segmentation fault at the highlighted area.
I'm only supposed to use pointers so arrays are out of the question, and I don't think we are allowed to use the string.h library as well. How I could avoid something the segmentation fault or ways to fix it?
Code:
int replaceChars(char replace, char find, char *input) { int i, j;
//Finds length
for(i = 0; *(input + (i + 1)) != ' '; i++);
int c = 0;
for(j = 0; j <= i; j++) {
if(*(input + j) == find) {
*(input + j) = replace; //Segmentation fault happens here
c++;
} }
return c;
}

When I try to run the code, I get a segmentation fault core dumped, it returns 139 (0x8B)
The file it is pulling from is a list of numbers, but without the string, the output ends up going from values of ~70,000 to values around 50
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <cstdio>
#include <cstdlib>
#define MAX 29656
using namespace std;
string el[MAX];
ifstream file1("results.txt");
ofstream file2("Energy1.txt");

The program should store a character array in reverse order then display the reversed array. I have also included in the code that will display the actual characters into the array as it loops through. So I know the characters are being stored, but why doesn't it display the entire string when I call it?
Code:
#include<stdio.h>
int main(){
char str[50];
char rev[50];
printf("Enter Desired Text: ");
scanf ("%[^

Is it just my compiler?

I am currently having an issue with validating user input for a state abbreviation. I have an array where a list of abbreviations is stored to use as a comparison for whatever the user inputs. I have been able to get the list loaded properly but whenever i go to compare, it always comes back as true even if it isn't. Here is some relevant code:
static char stateTable[STATE_TABLE_SIZE][STATE_SIZE];
int main() {
char buffer[40], *testCustName[40], testState[5], testCode;
buffer[0] = ' ';
int quit = 0;
int p = 0;

this function subtracts a given value for each element in an array. I If the array is: hellohowareyou, and the value is 6 then result will be : 6 characters from each letter in the initial array
and the prototype of it is:
void minusFromArray(char arr[], int size, int value);
how do i convert each element in the array into ascii and subtract the values from those ascii characters?

I am trying to clear the first character of my array. The first two methods don't seem to work. The third method seems to but doesn't look like a good idea.
char operand[] = "abc";
//both methods seem to null it out
operand[0] = 0;
memset(operand, 0, 1);
printf("%s", operand);
//seems to work
memset(operand, 5, 1);

I am creating a program and am having trouble with one part. The input file looks like:
Code:

3
Bill Jeff Steve
Linda Brittany Jessica
3 1 4
2 1 9
8 3 7
6 4 9
4 8 9
6 9 4
Where I am stuck is putting the numbers into the string array. For example, Bill's scores should be set up as Bill's scores should be set as
Code: bill_score = {3, 1, 4}
and when this code is ran
Code:
for (i=0; i<3; i++) {
printf("%s - ", men[i]);

I am able to work with n instances of a structure in one mallocated area, but when I try to do the same thing with just character pointers, I get compiler errors about making integer from pointer without a cast. If I create a structure with just a character pointer in it, it works just fine... I am just not seeing something here!!!
This works:
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main (void) {
struct items {
unsigned int item_1;
unsigned int item_2;
[Code]...
This DOES NOT work!
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main (void) {
char * items_ptr = NULL;
unsignedint i = 0;
char * one = "one";
char * two = "two";

I am still working on my project which will be reading some old data from some old DOS files. The data stored there is naturally, char*. Once I read in my character array, how do I assign this to a wstring since my application is UNICODE?
Here is my current solution:
wchar_t* Class::Function(char *pName) {
//I verify the pointer and such first, then do the below
this->_Name.assign(pName, (pName + strlen(pName));
return this->_Name.c_str();
}
Am I on the right track here?

I have to write a function Subtracts val from each character in the array
// If the array is: abcdefghi and value = 5, then result is: 5 ascii characters subtracted from the given array
// note: Make sure the character remains in the ' '
// to '~' (inclusive)
// If character < ' ', then add 95
// If character > 126, then subtract 95
// to put back within the range, and repeat as needed
// all printable characters are between this range
// ' ' is the 1st printable character (32)
// '~' is the last printable character (126)
note: subtracting values from the char will cause an overflow.
the prototype is: void subtracting(char array[], int size, int value)
