    simple question

    Dear All,
    I want to have a code with a formula
    N-1 N-1
    aut[m]=summation x(n)x(n+m)
    n=0 n= 0
    if I have code like

    Code:
    for (m=0;m<N;m++)
    {
           for (n=0;n<N;n++)
               {
                  aut[m]+=x(n)*x(n+m);
               }
    }
    will this work?

    Have you tried it in a c compiler?
    It seems sound enough!

    Yes, I have complied it, no any error, but the results are out of my expectation. say x(n) is a sequence like:
    Code:
    x(n)={1.0,2.0,3.0,3.5}, and N=4.
    when the program runs at some points, take an example , x(5) (when n=3,m=2), the program dont know what value x(5) is? it will return me a radom number which is not i want. How can I solve this problem?
    Thank you.

    Whithout code to look at, we can only guess. And my guess is that you've defined x to be an array of 5 values, which means x(0) thru x(4). x(5) does not exist so you are looking at random data outside your array.
