Hi
I am a newbie to C. I have a function which search's through numbers. How can i output one of those numbers? I know you have to use printf and place that in the main part of the program. When i was trying to do that it says everything is undefined because it is all declared in the function.
Any ideas?
paste the code!
you need to start C from the beginning...can't build a house from the roof downwards. pm me for a link to a good book
We shouldn't be quick to criticize unless we can do better.
Code:public function __clone() { die ( "I'm one of a kind" ); }
Or he could just look in the book recommendations listed at the top of this section.Originally Posted by codeprada

So... put your printf in the function.
Functions can call functions.

here is the code
Code:void sort(float* array, int length) { . . int i, changed; . . float temp; . . changed = 1; // assume we changed something . . while(changed) // continue looping until we change nothing . . { . . . . changed = 0; // set the changed flag to nothing . . . . for(i = 0; i < length-1; i++) // loop from the first to the second-to-last . . . . { . . . . . . if(array[i] > array[i+1]) // if this one is bigger than the one in front of it . . . . . . { // swap them . . . . . . . . changed = 1; // make sure we know we changed something . . . . . . . . temp = array[i]; . . . . . . . . array[i] = array[i+1]; . . . . . . . . array[i+1] = temp; . . . . . . } // end if swap . . . . } // end for loop . . // if we were able to get this far without changing anything, it must have . . // been in the right order for every float! . . } // end while } // end function void sort(float*,int)
From your original post you said you had a search function... what you posted is a sort, not a search.
And it's not a very good sort at that.
So exactly what do you want to print from it that you can't get directly from the array?
