I want to sort my pointer of type (*double)[3]
according to 0
column pnt[i][0]
. So for example from
4 3 4
2 1 2
9 4 5
I want
2 1 2
4 3 4
9 4 5
I have a call to the quicksort function
qsort (pnt, numOfRows, sizeof(double), forQs);
with forQs as follows
int forQs (const void *x, const void *y)
{
const double **k = (const double **)x;
const double **l = (const double **)y;
return (*k)[0] - (*l)[0];
}
I end up with segmentation fault and valgrind says it's because of forQs. I was exploring before a lot how to create it as I don't know qsort
much, but I can't see there any mistake. Can anyone help?
edit: I also used:
pnt = (double (*)[3]) malloc(100 * sizeof(*pnt));
I tried to make two samples, because you are not good enough unknown. Please refer to it.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
int forQs (const void *x, const void *y)
{
const double **k = (const double **)x;
const double **l = (const double **)y;
return (*k)[0] - (*l)[0];
}
int main(){
double **pnt = malloc(100*sizeof(double(*)[3]));
int i, j;
for(i=0;i<3;++i)
pnt[i] = malloc(sizeof(double[3]));
memcpy(pnt[0], (double [3]){4.0, 3.0, 4.0}, sizeof(double[3]));
memcpy(pnt[1], (double [3]){2.0, 1.0, 2.0}, sizeof(double[3]));
memcpy(pnt[2], (double [3]){9.0, 4.0, 5.0}, sizeof(double[3]));
{//print before sort
int i,j;
for(i=0;i<3;++i){
for(j=0;j<3;++j)
printf("%g ", pnt[i][j]);
printf("\n");
}
printf("\n");
}
int numOfRows = 3;
// qsort(pnt, numOfRows, sizeof(double*), forQs);
qsort(pnt, numOfRows, sizeof(*pnt), forQs);
{//print after sort
int i,j;
for(i=0;i<3;++i){
for(j=0;j<3;++j)
printf("%g ", pnt[i][j]);
printf("\n");
}
}
return 0;
}
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
int forQs (const void *x, const void *y)
{
const double (*k)[3] = *(const double (**)[3])x;
const double (*l)[3] = *(const double (**)[3])y;
return (*k)[0] - (*l)[0];
}
int main(){
double (**pnt)[3] = malloc(100*sizeof(*pnt));
int i, j;
for(i=0;i<3;++i)
pnt[i] = malloc(sizeof(double[3]));
memcpy(pnt[0], (double [3]){4.0, 3.0, 4.0}, sizeof(double[3]));
memcpy(pnt[1], (double [3]){2.0, 1.0, 2.0}, sizeof(double[3]));
memcpy(pnt[2], (double [3]){9.0, 4.0, 5.0}, sizeof(double[3]));
{//print before sort
int i,j;
for(i=0;i<3;++i){
for(j=0;j<3;++j)
printf("%g ", (*(pnt[i]))[j]);
printf("\n");
}
printf("\n");
}
int numOfRows = 3;
//qsort(pnt, numOfRows, sizeof(double(*)[3]), forQs);
qsort(pnt, numOfRows, sizeof(*pnt), forQs);
{//print after sort
int i,j;
for(i=0;i<3;++i){
for(j=0;j<3;++j)
printf("%g ", (*(pnt[i]))[j]);
printf("\n");
}
}
return 0;
}
Protip: typedef
the thing you want work with and stick to it throughout.
Want vectors of 3 doubles?
typedef double vec3[3];
Now when you rewrite your code in terms of vec3
, the problems become readily apparent.
qsort (pnt, numOfRows, sizeof(double), forQs); /* was */
qsort (pnt, numOfRows, sizeof(vec3), forQs); /* now */
const double **k = (const double **)x; /* was */
const vec3* k = (const vec3*)x; /* now */
This way you automatically get correct code without having to think about how and when your arrays become pointers (hint: they don't).
