The rules are complicated, but in short, when you move around a c-array, you only move around a pointer to the first element.
In this case, since the array is stored on the stack, the memory is "destroyed" once the function returns, so the pointer you return points to nothing

#

To solve this (the c++ way), use std::array

#

To solve this the c way, use a output parameter (pass in an array as an argument, then write the output directly to that)

Could you show me what you mean? My professor didn't really talk about this kind of issue in class.

#

Nor did he say that there was an array header

crude lynx Oct 6, 2023, 5:19 PM

#

worldly zinc Could you show me what you mean? My professor didn't really talk about this kind...

You include the array header.
#include <array>
and instead of int diceOutputs[RANGE] = {};
use std::array<int, RANGE> diceOutputs = {};

#

You can use a template for passing in the array to the function

void diceCounters(std::array<int, size> diceCounter) { }

quartz surge Oct 6, 2023, 8:59 PM

The prototype doesn't actually match the function. The name is off by one letter and a parameter is missing. The function that you called doesn't actually have a definition. Also, the missing parameter can't be used anyway, because RANGE has to be const and it is already defined as a const in the global scope.

So I took your suggestions and whatnot, but I'm having an issue. How come the function diceCounter doesn't change the array value in diceOutput?

`void diceCounter(int diceOutput[]){
int diceCounter[] = {};
int dice1[] = {};
int dice2[] = {};

for (int i = 0; i < 100 ; i++){

    //Dice1

    random_device diceRoller;

The function numberCheck is checking how many values are in the array

The current hw assignment is a histogram

so I plan on checking all of these numbers and then outputting it with stars

`Example output:

3 *****

4 ********

5 ***********

6 **************

8 ***********

9 *****

10 ***

11 **

12 *`

Not any error, but when I plugged in that code and then couted it in the main function, I just got like 8-12 stars. Originally I thought it corrilated to the first index position in diceOutputs, so I did diceOutput[0] but it would not corrilate to the number of stars.

No, arrays cannot be passed by value

you could do something like

#

and pass a reference to the array

grave lagoon Oct 7, 2023, 6:50 PM

you would get an error that length wasn't defined

some code like what my professor made like this

    // Does: Inserts a ship of ship size randomly in the grid
    //          - Updates the grid array
    // Returns: Nothing

    cout << "makeShip: Entered" << endl;

    bool horiz = (rand() % 2); // 0 or 1 (horizontal or vertical)
    int position = (rand() % (GRID_SIZE - shipSize + 1)); // start in position 0 through 6
    if (horiz) { // horizontal ship
        int randRow = rand() % GRID_SIZE;  // choose a random row
        for (int shipPos = 0; shipPos < shipSize; shipPos++){
            myGrid[randRow][position+shipPos] = STAR;
        }
    }
    else {  // vertical ship
        int randCol = rand() % GRID_SIZE;  // choose a random column
        for (int shipPos = 0; shipPos < shipSize; shipPos++){
            myGrid[position+shipPos][randCol] = STAR;
        }
    }
}```

#

works without that?

#

because they're passing the size of the arrays in

or diceOutputs[RANGE]

grave lagoon Oct 7, 2023, 6:55 PM

should be i < RANGE and then accessing the array with diceOutputs[i]

worldly zinc Oct 7, 2023, 6:55 PM

wdym accessing?

like

for (int i = 0; i < RANGE ; i++)

#

worldly zinc ```cpp for (int i = 0; i < RANGE ; i++) for (int value : diceOutputs [i]) ```

diceOutputs[i] would result in the int in the array

worldly zinc Oct 7, 2023, 6:57 PM

#

Thats perfect

#

I need the int value inside of the array to check the number

grave lagoon Oct 7, 2023, 6:58 PM

#

ptr[i] is the same as *(ptr+i), it's moving forward i elements and then getting the pointed to value

worldly zinc Oct 7, 2023, 6:59 PM

#

worldly zinc ```cpp for (int i = 0; i < RANGE ; i++) for (int value : diceOutputs [i]) ```

So this wouldn't work?

grave lagoon Oct 7, 2023, 6:59 PM

#

worldly zinc So this wouldn't work?

No

#

why are you trying to iterate over an int?

worldly zinc Oct 7, 2023, 7:00 PM

#

Just checking the value

#

#

Its for a histogram

grave lagoon Oct 7, 2023, 7:03 PM

#

worldly zinc Just checking the value

then you should do switch/if

#

inside of the for loop for i

worldly zinc Oct 7, 2023, 7:04 PM

#

grave lagoon then you should do switch/if

    if (value == 2)
      two += 1;

      ten += 1;
    else if (value == 11)
      eleven += 1;
    else if (value == 12)
      twelve += 1;

#

Just like this?

should be i

couldn't I just use the if else statments alone?

to avoid repeating diceOutputs[i] and since that's the name you already chose to put in the code there

                twelve += 1;
        }
    }
}```

So I couldnt do int value = diceOutputs[i] because it overshadowed the for loop int value. But I've ran into another error, and it says:

#

Invalid range expression of type 'int'; no viable 'begin' function available

worldly zinc ```cpp void numberCheck(int diceOutputs[]){ //Check for values int two = ...

what do you think for (int value : diceOutputs[i]) is doing??

worldly zinc Oct 7, 2023, 7:19 PM

#

grave lagoon what do you think `for (int value : diceOutputs[i])` is doing??

itterates through until that specific index value

crude lynx Oct 7, 2023, 7:19 PM

#

grave lagoon `sizeof(diceOutputs)` will not do what you expect

oh right its a pointer yeah

grave lagoon Oct 7, 2023, 7:19 PM

#

worldly zinc itterates through until that specific index value

diceOutputs[i] is already the int you want

worldly zinc Oct 7, 2023, 7:21 PM

#

Ohh, so instead of that for loop, I'd just replace it with

#

int value = diceOutputs[i];

grave lagoon Oct 7, 2023, 7:22 PM

#

worldly zinc Ohh, so instead of that for loop, I'd just replace it with

yes

crude lynx Oct 7, 2023, 7:23 PM

#

what are you going to do with all those variables? print them out?

grave lagoon Oct 7, 2023, 7:23 PM

#

worldly zinc ```cpp void numberCheck(int diceOutputs[]){ //Check for values int two = ...

though I think you forgot the RANGE input argument again

worldly zinc Oct 7, 2023, 7:25 PM

#

crude lynx what are you going to do with all those variables? print them out?

Sorta, for every variable in that function, it's going to go to another function that''ll take their value and print out * for each number value

worldly zinc Oct 7, 2023, 7:26 PM

#

grave lagoon though I think you forgot the RANGE input argument again

should i make it int size bc RANGE is a global variable. Or would it not matter?

#

maybe I should show the whole code rq

crude lynx Oct 7, 2023, 7:26 PM

#

worldly zinc Sorta, for every variable in that function, it's going to go to another function...

y not print right there and then

#

pepe

grave lagoon Oct 7, 2023, 7:26 PM

#

worldly zinc should i make it int size bc RANGE is a global variable. Or would it not matter?

if it's going to be constant, sure

crude lynx y not print right there and then

I believe he wants it in a certain format, that's why

#

brb gonna shower yo

crude lynx Oct 7, 2023, 7:40 PM

#

worldly zinc I believe he wants it in a certain format, that's why

?

#

you can print in a certain format there though

worldly zinc Oct 7, 2023, 9:05 PM

#

Damn you right

#

I’ll probably do that soon

worldly zinc Oct 7, 2023, 9:28 PM

#

works

#

thanks yo
