Fill table with values in ranges from another table-CodePudding

I have an one-dimensional table with degrees:

double tabledegrees[10]={0.2,3.4,4.3,1.2,4.6,4.5,3.8,1.5,3.4,3.7};

The degrees are always in the interval [0,5].

I want to count the number of thermometers whose degree belong in each of the intervals [0,1), [1,2),[2,3), [3,4),[4,5] and store these values in an array of integers of size 5, in which cell 0 belongs to degrees belonging to the interval [0,1), cell 1 to degrees belonging to the interval [1,2), and so on.

I want to use floor function and not a sequence of if commands.

The following program:

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

int main(){

  
double tabledegrees[10]={0.2,3.4,4.3,1.2,5.6,4.5,3.8,1.5,3.4,3.7};
double tabledegreesfloored[10];

for (int i=0;i<10;i  ){
    tabledegreesfloored[i] = floor(tabledegrees[i]);
   }


for (int j=0;j<10;j  ){
    printf("%.f \n", tabledegreesfloored[j]);
   }
}

returns:

0 3 4 1 5 4 3 1 3 3

How to achive this?

CodePudding user response：

You create an array of thermometers and use the interval to index into the array as you count them:

#include <math.h>
#include <stdio.h>

#define LEN(a) sizeof(a) / sizeof(*a)

int main() {
    double tabledegrees[10]={0.2,3.4,4.3,1.2,5.6,4.5,3.8,1.5,3.4,3.7};
    size_t thermometers[5] = {0};
    for (size_t i=0; i < LEN(tabledegrees); i  ) {
        if(tabledegrees[i] < 0 || tabledegrees[i] >= LEN(thermometers)) {
            printf("skip data out of range %lf\n", tabledegrees[i]);
            continue;
        }
        thermometers[(int) floor(tabledegrees[i])]  ;
    }
    for (size_t i=0; i < LEN(thermometers); i  )
        printf("%zu: %zu\n", i, thermometers[i]);
}

and here is example output:

skip data out of range 5.600000
0: 1
1: 2
2: 0
3: 4
4: 2
