I am looking for an example of when passing arrays to other data that has pointers,
I understand the terms I would just like to see a small example of code that actually demonstrates this process.
typedef struct example_dt_struct {
int a;
float b;
char* c;
};
typedef void(*func)(example_dt_struct *s, int e, int f);
void f(func *n){}
how can i use example_dt_structure with my function pointer into f()
Code:
typedef struct {
name_t name;
float beta[beta_num];
} gene_t;

Is gene an array of address ? How come the compare function doesn't work ?
I'm trying to write a function that takes a 32bit address and a data to store at this address.
I'm wanting to take the 32 bit memory address eg 0x12345678 and split it
into 4 x 2 bytes
12, 34, 56, 78
then each of the 4 entries is at most a 256 entry array.eg
FF, FF, FF, FF
So in this example, 0x12 points to 0x34 in the second array, which points to 0x56 in the third array, which finally points to 0x78 in the last array. This last array holds the actual data.
After successfully doing 0x12345678, say I might get a read for 0x1234AABB. So, the first and second pointers already exist, but I then have to create and write to dynamically created arrays.
The arrays need to have all entries set to NULL so that i know whether to follow the pointers to overwrite a previously entered value or create new arrays and pointers.
It all looks good and simple in the pseudo code I've written up but I'm having trouble coding it. I'm currently trying to deal with the first entry case, ie all array elements are NULL, but I'm getting confused with the pointers and creation of new arrays.
void cpu::store(unsigned int mem_add,unsigned int mem_val) {
int first = (mem_address&4278190080)>>24;
int second = (mem_address&16711680)>>16;
int third = (mem_address&65280)>>8;
int fourth= (mem_address&255);

I want to scan numbers in from within a function, but have access to them in main, so I tried using pointers to do so:

I have been struggling with pointers. I am trying to write a program that first asks a user to input a filename. It then checks if the file exists and if it does it passes a pointer to the next function. The next function then asks the user for a specific word to look for and the function will search a text file for the word and do some other operations. My problem is that I do not understand how to use the pointer returned by my first function as an input to another function.
The following code has the first function file_check() and the second function word_search() which I think the way I am declaring it is the problem.
Code:
FILE *file_check();
void word_search(FILE *);
int
main(void) {
FILE* check= file_check();
// word_search(check);

If f1 and f2 are two user defined functions.
main(){
int *p;
f1(&p)
}
f1(**p){
f2(&p);//
If I've to pass the pointer by reference again in another function, will I've to do something like this?
}
f2(***p){
**p = NULL;
}
I am having problems with passing my values through functions.
Here is my code:
#include<stdio.h>

Background: I'm writing a convolutional encoder (and decoder, eventually) for a microprocessor (PIC24), for which I'm using structs and pointers to move from state to state. So far as I'm aware, everything I'm using in the PIC involves nothing other than ANSI C.
I have a little experience with structures, having written a linked-list program for a class a couple years back, but nothing since and never used structure arrays. I have the feeling I'm missing something basic here, which is what's so frustrating. The most confusing error (and I suspect the root of most of them) is the 'state undeclared', which I just can't figure.
The errors I'm getting are:
encoder.c:11: warning: 'struct memstate' declared inside parameter list
encoder.c:11: warning: its scope is only this definition or declaration, which is probably not what you want
encoder.c: In function 'state_init':
encoder.c:22: error: two or more data types in declaration specifiers
encoder.c:25: error: 'state' undeclared (first use in this function)
encoder.c:25: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
[Code]....
Code:
Code: //Includes
#include <stdlib.h>
//------------------------------------------------------------------------------
//Creates state machine and passes back pointer to 00 state
void state_init(struct memstate* startpoint)
{
extern struct memstate
{
char output0; //output if next input is 0
[code]...
NB: I'm aware that at the moment, this code will do nothing except spin round that do-while loop. Once it's actually compiling I'll drop in some simple button-based test code so it'll check for the correct output.
I have a a group of text files that are used as input into a program. Another very similar program needs the same data in a different input format. I am writing a program that will read in each line of data and parse it. I have successfully written the program in main() such that it will read until the end of file. However, I am trying to re-write the program such that the algorithm is in an external function and will read one line at a time and then pass all of the character strings to the main program. The program will not compile and I am positive it has to do with an incorrect use of arrays in passing the variable "token". I am attaching a copy of the main program and the function.
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <cstring>
#include <stdio.h>
void Line_Parse(std::ifstream&,std::ostream&,const char* token);
int main(int argc, const char * argv[]) {

Code:
void Class1::Func(shared_ptr<type1> parameter)
{
}
or
void Class1::Func(const shared_ptr<type1>& parameter)
{
}
or
Should I ever pass arguments/parameters to other objects using shared_ptr's or raw pointers?
So when if you want to change the values themselves for example in an array (just for example) this is valid;
void test(int* test)
{
test[0] += 10;
}
int bob[] {1, 3, 5};
If you did that bob[0] would not equal 11. All well and good right?
Now if you do this?
int sally = 33;
test(sallay);
This wouldn't work at all you actually have to use
void test(int& test)
{
test += 10;
}
how the memory addresses etc. are working here? I don't understand why you need to use & the reference operator if it's not an array? Why wouldn't that still work?
Here is my program to look up words. How do I use character pointers instead of using arrays?
Code:

I am having troubles with dynamic arrays and pointers. All the errors are of that kind. I think when I am assigning malloc to an array we assign to its address.

gene=malloc(INITIAL*sizeof(gene2)); Code:
while(...) {
if (gene_num==current_size){

Set an Array (a[10]) and a Pointer to that array (*pa) and code a loop (for( ; ; loop) that will advance that pointer (*pa) and will set a new content into it with each loop. that means that in the end of the day, my program will automatically set content to each cell of the array by promoting the pointer by 1 and add the sum to that pointer.
When I run the program it prints the address of the cells instead the value of it.
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
void main() {
float a[11], *pa; // Array and ptr set.
int i; // counter for the loop.
pa = a;
for (i=0 ; i<=10 ; i++) // the loop itself.

I have a problem with a pointer and a bidimensional array. Here's the code:
typedef char t_board[5][4];
int i,j;
t_board *copy (t_board b) {
t_board *ptr;
ptr = (t_board *) malloc (sizeof(t_board));
[Code] ...
After this, I print new_board, and its ok; but the following code after the call to copy, crashes. Don't know why. if I remove the statement new_board = copy(some_board); , the code that follows runs ok.
I'm writing quite a large program that needs to work with very large arrays (up to 100 million integers). It is necessary that i can access every point of the array directly (without running through the array) and that I use as little memory as possible. I first wrote the program with pointers that point to allocated heap memory. It works fine but now I wanted to use smart pointers instead (so I'm sure to have no memory leaks). Here's a simple visualization of my problem:
#include <iostream>
#include <memory>
using namespace std;
unique_ptr<int[]> upArray;
int main() {
int nArrayLength = 10;
[Code] ....
There are 2 things that do not work how I would like the to:
1. It wants me to assign the heap memory in one step: unique_ptr<int[]> upArray(new int[nArrayLength]); But I'd like to have the unique_ptr in my Class_Declaration before I know the array length and allocate the memory later.
2. *(upArray + i) = i;
cout << *(upArray + i);
Those lines don't work! How else can I do it.
I am trying to use pointers to arrays in my function.
I can get the pointers to work outside of a function but I just can't figure out how to make them work in my function.jwhittle58, on 25 February 2015 - 06:06 PM, said:

I define "Comwords" as a string, but apparently it takes the members as chars, then I can't set strings in a structure equal to the chars.
I see to also be having unknown problems with the ComMAL array and loading it values into another element of the same structure.
How to correct this? I was thinking of casting char elements as strings, but could find no reference in my library book regarding how to do that (lots on casting int's a doubles...)

int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[]) {

the book I learn from gave a task to write a program which gets a matrix , and we have to write a function that switches 2 columns or rows the user inputs .as far as I know a function can not change variables in the main function without using pointers .so , theoretically, can a function described here can be written without using pointers ? as far as I tried - it can not.
