[Solved] How to calculate nth roots without math.h

You can reformulate the question y = sqrt(x) as to find the value for y such that y*y – x equals zero. The easiest way to solve that equation is by doing a bisection on y (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bisection_method) between 0 and x (because 0 <= sqrt(x) <= x for all real numbers x where x should … Read more

[Solved] Declaring a function in a header file which references structs defined in different header files

You will need to include file1.h and file2.h in file3.h instead of file3.c. As func3 uses struct1 and struct2, you can’t declare it without having the declarations of the structs on hand. Don’t be tempted to redeclare the structs in file3.h. solved Declaring a function in a header file which references structs defined in different … Read more

[Solved] buffer overflow Identification in the code

1. while ((buffer[i++] = getchar()) != ‘\n’) You have to be sure that the number of characters being entered is less than 4096. Else you have a buffer overflow. While reading until the end of the line it would be better to use fgets() which is much safer. 2. strcpy(newbuffer,buffer); What if your array buffer … Read more

[Solved] What does this following C code implement [closed]

The code is probably intended to create an identity matrix with 1’s on the leading diagonal and 0’s elsewhere. The Fortran equivalent of that code is used as the first example of bad code in the classic Elements of Programming Style by Kernighan and Plauger. Working from memory, the Fortran code was roughly: DO 10 … Read more

[Solved] Traverse Non-Binary Tree [closed]

def traverse(tree_of_lists): for item in tree_of_lists: if isinstance(item, list): for x in traverse(item): yield x else: yield item This is the “basic” solution — can run in Python 2.7 and gives you an iterable that you can simply loop on. (In recent Python 3.* versions you’d use yield from item instead of the inner for … Read more
