C :: Returning Char Array By Function
Mar 2, 2015
I'm having trouble returning a char array by a function, here's the code. The problem is the 'reverse' function, the purpose of the function is to send two char arrays, 'newline' containing the char array, reverse it and place it in the 'rev' char array then output it back in main, however the output remains blank so I assume there must be something wrong with the reverse function.
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#define MAXLINE 10
int fgetline(char line[], int maxline);
void copy(char to[], char from[]);
void reverse(char forw[], char rev[], int arrsize);
[Code] .....

I want to return a char array to the main() function, but its returning garbage value.
#include<stdio.h>
//#include<conio.h>
#include<string.h>
char* strtrmm();
int main() {
char str1[100],c1[100];

Code:
charArr = new char[50];
cout << "put in value: ";
cin.getline(charArr, 50);
some_func(charArr);
[Code] ....
Let's say I enter a value: 101
It goes into the if statement but clearly I've enter 1s and 0s. When I debugged, at i = 0, the charArr[i] gives me a value of 49 when assigned to an int variable. But when I cout charArr[i] it gives me 1.
So I'm going to assume 49 is part of the address? How can I correctly check the if statement condition?

I am writing a class Player which has several char arrays as private fields. I am trying to write a method which returns an array as a pointer, but doesn't alter the array in any way, thus the const.
Here is a snippet:
Code: class Player
{
private:
char state[MAX_STATE_CHAR + ONE_VALUE];
int rating;
char last[MAX_NAME_CHAR + ONE_VALUE];
char first[MAX_NAME_CHAR + ONE_VALUE];
int groupNumber = NEG_ONE;
public:
char * GetFirst() const
{
return first;
}
Visual studio is saying that the return type doesn't match.

I need to create a function which will print a list from 100Hz to 1000Hz then 1000Hz to 9000Hz. I have created a function in order to calculate and set up the frequency values from 100Hz to 9000Hz using two for loops as shown below. However I am unsure how to return this to the array at the main.
int main(void) {
double Frequency[18];
system ("PAUSE");
return(0); } double Frequency (void)
{
int count;

I'm trying to return a short int in a function..This is my function signature :
short int* StartRecord(int seconds)
this is my array :
short int waveIn[NUMPTS];
I'm trying to get the data into an array :
short int arr [] = StartRecord(3);
getting this error: Error2error C2440: 'initializing' : cannot convert from 'short *' to 'short []'

I know how to pass a 2-D array to a function. The prototype for that is void f(int (*p)[2]) assuming the array is of integers and there are 2 columns in it.
However, if I wanted the same function to return a pointer to a 2-D array, what would be the prototype?

I have been trying to make a function that compares all the values of the array and if they are all equal will return a value to print true. The problem I am having is that regardless of what values I enter the function is always returning true. Any way to tell the program o check all the values in one command instead I put them each,
Code:
#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
int compare(int arrayA[], int arrayB[]);

How can I return a dynamically allocated 2d array from a function? Do I use like this:
int main(){
char **array;
array=func();
} char ** func(){
char** ptr=new char[5]; //five words
ptr[0]=new char[size of word1];
*ptr[0]=word1
........
return ptr;
}

This a very simple program I created because I dont understand how do this. My goal is to be able to use the pointer *s5 throughout the program. For example I would to like to call other functions and pass that pointer through the function. I understand the dynamic allocation and pointers for the most part but Im confused here because the "new char[20]" variable will die after the function and I dont want it to.
#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <cstring>
using namespace std;
void testArray ( char *s5 );
int main ( int argc, char *argv[] )
[Code] .....
Also does strlen count the null terminator?

I am trying to return a char pointer so that i can re use it again. I am writing a vigenere function that takes a message, a key and an initialization vector where it performs the encryption, prints out the encrypted message and returns the encrypted message. I print out the process step by step and everything works, however i pass the answer and print it out again and only the first letter gets changed. I put my code below and my output right after that.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <ctype.h>
#include <time.h>
void decrypt(char *to_encrypt, char *key, char* pct);
enum flag{encryption = 1, decryption = 0};

Now I am stuck with getting const char* array from function to main.
Code:
const char* values[3];
strings_to_array()
printf("%s
", values[1]);
printf("%s
", values[2]); function: Code:
const char* strings_to_array()
}
[code]....
First, I cant get strings printed out in main.
Second, is here way to get number of such elements which array contains like higher languages have "count" or "ubound" or such?
Third, next function which need that array assumes that array of const chars* is 1 based. Can that be set in C or here are allways zero based arrays?

In the below program, When the getline function is called, it passes a char array of size 1000 by VALUE. It must have passed by value because there is no pointer or reference in the argument list of the getline function definition. And if that's the case, when exiting the getline function, isn't the s[] char array destroyed? And if it is destroyed, then when we reference line in the copy function, what are we actually copying?
#include <stdio.h>
#define MAXLINE 1000/* maximum input line length */
int getline(char line[], int maxline);
void copy(char to[], char from[]);
/* print the longest input line */
main() {

I am required to write a program which, when given an nxn 2D array of char, and the specified coordinates of a specific point in that array, returns thelargest number of horizontal, vertical or diagonal contiguous (side-by-side) sequence of points of that same char value that intersects with the given point.
The way I took on this problem was to:
1) First find out the number of points with the same char value up, down, right, left, north-east, north-west, south-east, and south-west of the given point.
2)Add up+down+1(the one is for the point itself), north-west+south-east+1, etc...
3) Finally I compared the four values (updown, rightleft, NESW, NWSE) and returned the largest one.
Well, that's how the program is supposed to work in theory but as you can probably guess it doesn't work. In addition to telling me what I'm doing wrong, is there a simpler way to do what I am trying to accomplish?
Here's the code:
Code:
int findLongest(char **board, int n, int row, int col)
{
char current;
int rightleft, updown, NESW, NWSE;
int r, c, c1=0, c2=0, c3=0, c4=0, c5=0, c6=0, c7=0, c8=0, d;
int t1=1, t2=1, t3=1, t4=1, t5=1, t6=1, t7=1, t8=1;
current=board[row][col];
//check Above: col remains the same
for(r=row-1;r>=0||t1!=0;r--)
//with the condition r>=0 I made sure not to accidentally check values outside of the array

This code ran well until i added in the ToLower function which is supposed to convert the char array string to lower case (based off ascii strategy -32). correct this function so it converts string to lower case and doesn't get errors.
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
const int MAX = 81; //max char is sting is 80
void ToLower(char s[]);
int main(){
string y_n;

I have been assigned the following task and I am having difficulty in getting it to compile. The compiler is stopping at line 27 but I don't no what the error is.
The task is as follows:
Write two functions with the following function prototypes:
int my string len(char str[])
void my string cat(char dest[], char src[], int dest size)
Both functions should take zero-terminated strings as input. The first function should return the length of the string to the calling function. The second function should take a source and a destination string and the total size of the array pointed to by dest. It should then concatenated the source string onto the end of the destination string, if and only if the destination string has the capacity to store both strings. If the destination string does not have the capacity it should not alter either, print and error, and return to the calling function. Demonstrate the use both the above functions by using them in a program in which you initialise two character arrays with two strings, print out their length, print out the combined length, and print out the combined string
And this is my code so far:
/* A program to demonstrate string concatenation */
#include <iostream>
#include <string.h>
using namespace std;
int my_string_len(char str[]){ // function to calculate length of a chracter array
int len = 0;

I'm working on a piece of code written long time ago. Without getting in the details or too much context here, there is a function that declares an array of char of a size of 350,000 elements, in order to fill it (using a pointer) with the list of all running processes on the machine (using "ps -ejf" on a Linux box).
The size of the char array has been changed from 40,000 to 350,000 sometime along the years, probably because of a lack of space required.
What kind on data structure / storage would you use to store the running processes in order to eventually search for a value in it?

I'm using fgets which will read a single line at a time, but unlike fgets I don't want it to return the new line char ( ) ?I want to be able to use printf to display the lines next to each other.

I am making a game commonly know as the Hangman using C++.
Now I am trying to add a man in it like this:
0
|/
|
/
Now the problem i am facing is that i am using a check that if a function returns the value 0 "return 0" it means the guess is wrong and it will not update the man but if it returns any value there will be a function called which will update the man.
I just wanna know that how i am going to use the check, the kind of thing that i am trying to use is, in general words "if(function returns a value) then update the man"
int main() {
return match;
}
How are we going to use it in check that if int main is returning 'match' in the check...

This simple little program is not returning a value. The output is
" (string) contains characters" (The number of characters is supposed to display between the 'contains' and 'characters.'
However, if I go to the function and cout the length, the cout in the main body displays just fine.
Here's the main portion :
cout << "'" << input << "' contains "; //Output of character count.
charCount(input);
cout << " characters, including any spaces.
"; //Output of character count.
and here's the function.
int charCount(char *string) {
int length = 0; //Variable to hold the number of characters.
//Gets the number of characters contained in *string and puts that number into length.

As the title says, i'm using a function which returns a pointer to a struct:
the struct is the following:
Code:
typedef struct POINT
{
uint16_t x;
uint16_t y;
}
Coordinate; the function i'm using:
Code:
Coordinate * Read_XTP2046(void)
{static Coordinate screen;
//calculations to determine the coordinates
screen.x=(temp[1]+temp[2])/2;
screen.y=(temp[0]+temp[2])/2;
// and so on...
return &screen;}
The question is: how do i catch this pointer and make it into a Coordinate struct in which i can read the x and y.
In my main program i would do the following:
Code:
Coordinate cor;
cor = Read_XTP2046();
This does not work, as the function returns a pointer, but how to transform this pointer into a Coordinate struct.

I am using two threads and i want to take value of a function from one thread and use it in other. I am not good at the concepts of threads. Here is the following code:
Code:
void ThreadA(void const *argument){

status = I2S002_Config(&I2S002_Handle0, &I2SConfig_U0C1_A);
if (status != DAVEApp_SUCCESS) {
