this is my first question on StackOverflow ! :) To be honest I'm about to destroy my whole setup.

My code is making me crazy.

My problem is, I am not able to fill a dynamic array with the return of a function. My goal here is, for each array box, fill it with a random value of 'randomizer'. I am not able to take the return of randomizer in the array box.

Here is the code:

main.c:

#include "functions.h"
#include "functions.c"

/*       TP 3 - ESIEE-IT Rémy JARDIN        */

int main() {
    int saisie, i;
    printf("Creation du Tableau. \nNombre de caractere du tableau : ");
    scanf("%d", &saisie);
    ArrayCreate(saisie);
     
    // Affichage
    
    return 0;
}

functions.h:

#ifndef FUNCTIONS_H
#define FUNCTIONS_H

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int ArrayCreate(int saisie);
int randomizer();
int insereAIndice();

#endif

functions.c:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
    
int ArrayCreate(int saisie) {
    int i;
    int *Tab = (int *)malloc(saisie * sizeof(int));
    if (Tab == NULL) {
        printf("Not enough Memory");
        exit (1);
    }
    for (i = 0; i < saisie; i  ) {
        Tab[i] = (randomizer   1);
    }
    
    printf("\n Resultats : ");
    for (i = 0; i < saisie; i  ) {
        printf("%d - ", *(Tab   i));
    }
    
    return 0;
}
    
int randomizer() {
    //int x = rand() % (100   1);
    return 1;
}

And the error is:

functions.c: In function 'ArrayCreate':
functions.c:12:8: warning: assignment makes integer from pointer without a cast [-Wint-conversion]
 Tab[i] = (randomizer 1);

CodePudding user response：

Instead of Tab[i] = (randomizer 1); you should write:

Tab[i] = randomizer();

Note also these remarks:

• the function prototypes in functions.h should have an argument of void:

  int randomizer(void);
  int insereAIndice(void);
  

• file functions.c should include functions.h to ensure consistency between function declarations and definitions.

• Writing *(Tab i) is much less readable than Tab[i]. If you wish to obfuscate the code, use i[Tab] which is equivalent :)

Here is a modified version:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include "functions.h"

int ArrayCreate(int saisie) {
    int i;
    int *Tab = (int *)malloc(saisie * sizeof(int));
    if (Tab == NULL) {
        fprintf(stderr, "Not enough Memory\n");
        exit(1);
    }
    for (i = 0; i < saisie; i  ) {
        Tab[i] = randomizer();
    }
    
    printf("\n Resultats : ");
    for (i = 0; i < saisie; i  ) {
        printf(" %d", Tab[i]);
    }
    printf("\n");
    return 0;
}
    
int randomizer(void) {
    // return a random integer in the range 1..100
    return 1   rand() % 100;
}
