Structure and Linked List User Input Question

kevndale79 · 10-03-2006, 04:38 PM

Okay my assignment is to create a program that accepts a user input for 5 values and stores them in a structure and then prints those 5 values back and allows for one more value to be inputted. I have created my structure but am having trouble with the use of pointers and how to get those five values stored. My C programming book is not of much help since it doesn't have an example for user input into a structure.

My basic problem is the understanding of how do use pointers and store them in a structure.

Thanks in advance for any help given.

PHP Code:

  #include <stdio.h>

struct oomba

    {

    int value;

    struct oomba *next;

    };

 
 
int main()

{

 
struct oomba Val;

oomba *first

printf("Please input the value 1");

scanf("%d",Val.next);

printf("\n\nPlease input the value 2");

scanf("%d",Val.next);

printf("Please input the value 3");

scanf("%d",Val.next);

printf("\n\nPlease input the value 4");

scanf("%d",Val.next);

printf("\n\nPlease input the value 5");

scanf("%d",Val.next);

first = &Val.next

printf("Your first five values are %d \n%d\n%d\n%d\n%d", *Val.next, *Val.next, *Val.next, *Val.next,*Val.next);

 
 
 
return 0;

}

Ok, so you're not looking at a Linkedlist correctly.

Here's how you should look at it :

Code:

value 1
next ----->  value 2
              next ------>  value 3
                             next ----> and so on

Therefore, value2 would be in *(Val1.next).value (although you may want to do something like Val2 = *(Val1.next) and then Val2.value).

Keep in mind, though, that what you're doing at the moment doesn't set up a linked list structure either. For the purpose of the question, I could see yourself simply modifying the structure to this :

Code:

struct oomba 
    { 
    int value[5]; 
    struct oomba *next; 
    };

and being fine...

Still working out the kinks. This gives me lots of errors, especially the storage of the values not reflecting the proper struct union type. I only wish my book was a little more helpful.

Thanks,
Kevin

PS- Any additional advice would be greatly appreciated including a good faq or walkthrough of writing a program similar to this to let me know the basic format and what I am missing/ doing wrong. Thanks again for all the help

PHP Code:

  #include <stdio.h>

struct Oomba

    {

    int value[6];

    struct oomba *next;

    };

 
 
int main()

{

int value, val1, val2, val3, val4;

 
 
oomba *first

printf("Please input the value 1");

scanf("%d",value);

printf("\n\nPlease input the value 2");

scanf("%d",val1.next.value);

printf("Please input the value 3");

scanf("%d",val2.value);

printf("\n\nPlease input the value 4");

scanf("%d",Val3.value);

printf("\n\nPlease input the value 5");

scanf("%d",val4.value);

Oomba *first; 

first = &value;

 
printf("Your first five values are %d \n%d\n%d\n%d\n%d", first->value, val1.next->value, val2.value->value, val3.value->value, val4.value->value);

 
 
return 0;

}

Well, it looks like you're trying to declare first twice, and then you assign it to point to an integer (even though it's a pointer to a structure!). val1, val2 etc are ints but you're treating them as structures.

[edit] And assuming you know that value is an int, you're missing an &:

Code:

scanf("%d",&value);

[/edit]

Perhaps you'd like to have a look at this program:

Code:

#include <stdio.h>

struct numbers {
    int num[6];
};

void get_numbers(struct numbers *n);

int main(void) {
    struct numbers n;
    int x;

    get_numbers(&n);

    for(x = 0; x < 6; x ++) {
        printf("%i\n", n.num[x]);
    }

    return 0;
}

void get_numbers(struct numbers *n) {
    int x;

    for(x = 0; x < 6; x ++) {
        printf("Enter number %i: ", x+1);
        scanf("%i", &n->num[x]);  /* no error checking */
    }
}

Try copying and pasting your code. If this is actually your code, then you have numerous problems. It helps to list the errors you're actually getting, so people don't have to waste time copying / compiling your broken code just to find out what's wrong.

Code:

int main() 
{ 
int value, val1, val2, val3, val4; 


oomba *first

1 - This isn't C++, and you didn't typedef anything, so you can't just do "oomba", you have to do "struct oomba".
2 - You don't have a ; at the end of this line.

Code:

printf("\n\nPlease input the value 5"); 
scanf("%d",val4.value); 
Oomba *first;

Same thing goes here, except now you've got two variables called 'first' declared in the same scope. Not allowed.

Code:

first = &value;

You're trying to assign the address of an integer to the pointer to a structure. You can't do that. Even if you could, it wouldn't be right.

I think you're misunderstanding what the purpose of a linked list is. You have room in one structure for six integers, so you don't need a list. I suspect your list structure is designed wrong, or you're misunderstanding the purpose. I suspect you want one integer per structure, so that you hold one number per list element. Then you make a new node for each number.

kevndale79 · 10-04-2006, 04:50 PM

Thanks for the sample program. I changed the structure to a different format (array) hoping that might alleviate some of my many problems. This program does compile but will not run.

PHP Code:

  #include <stdio.h>

struct Oomba

    {

    int *value;

    struct Oomba *next;

    };

 
 
int main()

{

 
 
struct Oomba val[6];

 
 
 
printf("Please input the value 1\n");

scanf("%d",val[0].value);

printf("\n\nPlease input the value 2\n");

scanf("%d",val[1].value);

printf("Please input the value 3\n");

scanf("%d",val[2].value);

printf("\n\nPlease input the value 4\n");

scanf("%d",val[3].value);

printf("\n\nPlease input the value 5\n");

scanf("%d",val[4].value);

 
 
printf("Your first five values are %d \n%d\n%d\n%d\n%d", val[0].value, val[1].value, val[2].value, val[3].value, val[4].value);

 
 
return 0;

}

Why are you using an array? Do you want a linked list, or do you want an array? Why is there a pointer to an integer in your linked list now?

Quzah.

kevndale79 · 10-04-2006, 05:48 PM

I was hoping to gain some understanding of what i was doing and hoping by getting an array to work that would help me figure out my multiple problems with the linked list. The linked list is what I actually want to do but I am experimenting trying to figure it out.

Thanks,
Kevin

quzah · 10-04-2006, 05:55 PM

Write one program that enters them into an array.
Write one program that enters them into an array in a structure.
Write one program that enters them into an array of structures, each structure containing only one int.
Write another program that enters them into a linked list.

Remember, your linked list is acting like an array in that instead of just walking through the array, you move through the linked list via pointer manipulation. Your array node should only store one integer. The integer itself should just be a plain old int inside a structure, not a pointer to an int, unless you feel like calling malloc for each node to allocate that integer also.

kevndale79 · 10-04-2006, 06:00 PM

This is what I got, I think I am getting the idea but now I am getting an error C2059 with Microsoft visual basic that says syntax error 'type' for the lines that scanf. I didnt write the display function yet, still trying to get this part to work.

PHP Code:

  #include <stdio.h>

struct Oomba

    {

    int value;

    struct Oomba *nextaddr;

    };

 
void display(struct Oomba *);

 
int main()

{

struct Oomba *first;

struct Oomba v1,v2,v3,v4,v5,v6;

 
first = &v1;

v1.nextaddr = &v2;

v2.nextaddr = &v3;

v3.nextaddr = &v4;

v4.nextaddr = &v5;

v5.nextaddr = &v6;

 
printf("Please input the value 1\n");

scanf("%d",struct Oomba v1);

printf("\n\nPlease input the value 2\n");

scanf("%d",struct Oomba v2);

printf("Please input the value 3\n");

scanf("%d",struct Oomba v3);

printf("\n\nPlease input the value 4\n");

scanf("%d",struct Oomba v4);

printf("\n\nPlease input the value 5\n");

scanf("%d",struct Oomba v5);

 
 
 
 
return 0;

}

quzah · 10-04-2006, 06:05 PM

Code:

printf("Please input the value 1\n"); 
scanf("%d",struct Oomba v1);

Try:

Code:

printf("Please input the value 1\n"); 
scanf( "%d", &v1.value );

kevndale79 · 10-04-2006, 06:32 PM

That part is working now THANKS! Now I am trying to create the function to print out the list of the linked list and it compiles and runs up until the point it sends the input to the function. Here is the updated code with the display function.

PHP Code:

  #include <stdio.h>

struct Oomba

    {

    int value;

    struct Oomba *nextaddr;

    };

 
void display(struct Oomba *);

 
int main()

{

struct Oomba *first;

struct Oomba v1,v2,v3,v4,v5,v6,v7,v8;

 
first = &v1;

v1.nextaddr = &v2;

v2.nextaddr = &v3;

v3.nextaddr = &v4;

v4.nextaddr = &v5;

v5.nextaddr = &v6;

v6.nextaddr = NULL;

 
printf("Please input the value 1\n");

scanf("%d",&v1.value);

printf("\n\nPlease input the value 2\n");

scanf("%d",&v2.value);

printf("Please input the value 3\n");

scanf("%d",&v3.value);

printf("\n\nPlease input the value 4\n");

scanf("%d",&v4.value);

printf("\n\nPlease input the value 5\n");

scanf("%d",&v5.value);

 
display(first);

 
return 0;

 
}

 
void display(struct Oomba *contents)

{

while (contents != NULL)

     {

     printf("%s",contents->value);

     contents = contents->nextaddr;

     }

return;

}

Happy_Reaper · 10-04-2006, 06:38 PM

Code:

void display(struct Oomba *contents) 
{ 
while (contents != NULL) 
     { 
     printf("%s",contents->value); 
     contents = contents->nextaddr; 
     } 
return; 
}

I don't think you want %s in there. Probably more like %d.

kevndale79 · 10-05-2006, 06:44 AM

So now my function and structure work with the input of the 5 values. The assignment me asks us to have the user input 5 values then print the results and then input one more value. I am trying to figure out how to get that to work. Should I write another functiion?

PHP Code:

  #include <stdio.h>

struct Oomba

    {

    int value;

    struct Oomba *nextaddr;

    };

 
void display(struct Oomba *);

 
int main()

{

struct Oomba *first;

struct Oomba v1,v2,v3,v4,v5,v6,v7,v8;

 
first = &v1;

v1.nextaddr = &v2;

v2.nextaddr = &v3;

v3.nextaddr = &v4;

v4.nextaddr = &v5;

v5.nextaddr = &v6;

v6.nextaddr = NULL;

 
 
 
printf("Please input the value 1\n");

scanf("%d",&v1.value);

printf("\n\nPlease input the value 2\n");

scanf("%d",&v2.value);

printf("Please input the value 3\n");

scanf("%d",&v3.value);

printf("\n\nPlease input the value 4\n");

scanf("%d",&v4.value);

printf("\n\nPlease input the value 5\n");

scanf("%d",&v5.value);

 
display(first);

 
return 0;

 
}

 
void display(struct Oomba *contents)

{

while (contents != NULL)

     {

     printf("\n%d",contents->value);

     contents = contents->nextaddr;

     }

return;

}

This is my first try at getting the 6th value inputted. Compiles but crashes after the first 5 values are inputted and displayed.

Now I am trying to create the function to print out the list of the linked list and it compiles and runs up until the point it sends the input to the function. Here is the updated code with the display function. PHP Code: #include <stdio.h> struct Oomba { int value; struct Oomba nextaddr; }; void display(struct Oomba ); int main() { struct Oomba first; struct Oomba v1,v2,v3,v4,v5,v6,v7,v8; first = &v1; v1.nextaddr = &v2; v2.nextaddr = &v3; v3.nextaddr = &v4; v4.nextaddr = &v5; v5.nextaddr = &v6; v6.nextaddr = NULL; printf("Please input the value 1\n"); scanf("%d",&v1.value); printf("\n\nPlease input the value 2\n"); scanf("%d",&v2.value); printf("Please input the value 3\n"); scanf("%d",&v3.value); printf("\n\nPlease input the value 4\n"); scanf("%d",&v4.value); printf("\n\nPlease input the value 5\n"); scanf("%d",&v5.value); display(first); return 0; } void display(struct Oomba contents) { while (contents != NULL) { printf("%s",contents->value); contents = contents->nextaddr; } return; }

Probably more like %d. __________________ Teacher:* "You connect with Internet Explorer, but what is your browser? You know, Yahoo, Webcrawler...?"

The assignment me asks us to have the user input 5 values then print the results and then input one more value. I am trying to figure out how to get that to work. Should I write another functiion? PHP Code: #include <stdio.h> struct Oomba { int value; struct Oomba nextaddr; }; void display(struct Oomba ); int main() { struct Oomba first; struct Oomba v1,v2,v3,v4,v5,v6,v7,v8; first = &v1; v1.nextaddr = &v2; v2.nextaddr = &v3; v3.nextaddr = &v4; v4.nextaddr = &v5; v5.nextaddr = &v6; v6.nextaddr = NULL; printf("Please input the value 1\n"); scanf("%d",&v1.value); printf("\n\nPlease input the value 2\n"); scanf("%d",&v2.value); printf("Please input the value 3\n"); scanf("%d",&v3.value); printf("\n\nPlease input the value 4\n"); scanf("%d",&v4.value); printf("\n\nPlease input the value 5\n"); scanf("%d",&v5.value); display(first); return 0; } void display(struct Oomba contents) { while (contents != NULL) { printf("\n%d",contents->value); contents = contents->nextaddr; } return; }

Compiles but crashes after the first 5 values are inputted and displayed. PHP Code: #include <stdio.h> struct Oomba { int value; int value2; struct Oomba nextaddr; }; void display(struct Oomba ); void display2(struct Oomba ); int main() { struct Oomba first; struct Oomba v1,v2,v3,v4,v5,v6,v7,v8; first = &v1; v1.nextaddr = &v2; v2.nextaddr = &v3; v3.nextaddr = &v4; v4.nextaddr = &v5; v6.nextaddr = NULL; printf("Please input the value 1\n"); scanf("%d",&v1.value); printf("\n\nPlease input the value 2\n"); scanf("%d",&v2.value); printf("Please input the value 3\n"); scanf("%d",&v3.value); printf("\n\nPlease input the value 4\n"); scanf("%d",&v4.value); printf("\n\nPlease input the value 5\n"); scanf("%d",&v5.value); display(first); printf("\n\nPlease input the value 6\n"); scanf("%d",&v1.value2); display2(first); return 0; } void display(struct Oomba contents) { while (contents != NULL) { printf("\n%d",contents->value); contents = contents->nextaddr; } return; } void display2(struct Oomba contents) { while (contents != NULL) { printf("\n%d",contents->value); contents = contents->nextaddr; printf("\n%d", contents ->value2); } return; }
