I wrote it as a one off script just for the challenge, so it's kinda unreadable.

If only developers had you abstraction skills.
Someone gave me some snippets to some array system for C awhile go, and i've been working on something that lets me queue SDL_Texture's into an array.//array.h
void *array_add ( Array *arr );
#define array_add_val(type, arr) (*((type *) array_add(arr)))//array.c
void *array_add ( Array *arr )
{
if ( ++arr->length > arr->capacity )
arr->buf = realloc( arr->buf,
arr->element_size * (arr->capacity = arr->capacity << 1) );
return arr->buf + arr->element_size * (arr->length - 1);
}//texture.h
typedef struct
{
unsigned int ID;
SDL_Texture *txr;
unsigned int w;
unsigned int h;
} TxrArr;
Array *G_txr;//texture.c
void texture_add ( char *filename )
{
SDL_Texture *t = NULL;
t = textureLoad( filename );
unsigned int ID = texture_generate_id();
unsigned int w = getTextureW(t);
unsigned int h = getTextureH(t);
array_add_val(TxrArr, G_txr) = (TxrArr) { ID, t, w, h };
}
I didn't post everything but I will post more if you need it.
my getTexture functions just run SDL_QueryTexture and return the value, they work. BUT, they don't store in texture array that's just made. A workaround is to add this to the bottom of the texture_add functionTxrArr *p = array_get ( G_txr, ID );
p->w = w;
p->h = h;
p = NULL;
It seems unnecessary, but it's the only way I can actually force those values to be set lol.

Yes they are.
>contiguous 2d arrays have zero overhead over 1d arrays,
Pointer to a 2D array has an extra level of indirection.
>>54654872
all relevant benchmarks show that 1d arrays are either no faster than or actually slower than 2d arrays
>>54654693
For inheritance.
A class Item can serve as a base for Weapon, Food, Key. This way the Player class can have an Item* "WieldingItem" and if the player clicks their mouse, it can do "WieldingItem->Use()".
Language being C++
>>54654897
and this is still way faster than the cancerous many-malloc array of arrays shit that FUCKING RETARDED C TARDS insist are multidimensional arrays
Wincucks: does Windows support forward slashes as a path separator?
>>54654814
I'm not convinced casting an int* of size m*n to a (int(*)[m][n]) is not somehow UB on a theoritical C machine.
I'm thinking that there could be some theoritical alignment shenanigans.
>>54654902
I'm not stupid, I'm asking why you feel the need to shoehorn fundamentally different things under a single interface. Unless you mean to only make weapons "usable" in the sense that "using" them just equips them.
>>54654926
yes
>>54654926
yeah
>>54654897
Nope.
1D arrays cannot possibly be slower you retard, what do you think the 'contiguous' part actually means?
And another level of indirection is always slower (grantd it's a microscoping difference, but it's there)
>>54654926
No.
t. Linux user.
>>54654931
the void pointer from malloc can be cast to anything
>>54654947
a 2d array is accessed the same way as you'd access a 1d array, it's syntactic sugar for the same thing
>>54654953
Try casting it to a function pointer then.
>>54654926
Every version of Windows, and every version of MS-DOS from 2.0 on,
has accepted "/" as a path delimiter.
>>54654981
Exactly, except with a pointer to a 2D array you have one more dereference, which is one more load instruction and memory access.
>>54654986
that doesn't have anything to do with anything, you can always cast void* to pointers to other data types, in C you don't even cast malloc it's all handled implicitly, fucking clueless C tard how can you not know this
>>54655004
there is not an extra dereference, it's the same as emulating a 2d array with a 1d array, it's how the implementation works behind the same, it's just syntax

>behind the same

>>54654952

>>54655013
>that doesn't have anything to do with anything
It has to do with the C standard being more complicated than you think. If you cast malloced memory to a function pointer and do anything with it, that's automatically undefined behavior.
>you can always cast void* to pointers to other data types, in C you don't even cast malloc it's all handled implicitly, fucking clueless C tard how can you not know this
It's possible you're right, but I wouldn't bet on it with all that Dunning-Kruger you're showing off.
>>54655013
>there is not an extra dereference,
Yes there is, go look at the disassembly for:
(*a)[y][x] vs *(a + y*N + x)
>>54654932
Because it makes sense from a design standpoint to have an "Item" and have "Weapon", "Hammer", "Sword" derive from it, it allows for cleaner and more understandable code compared to having Weapon, Hammer, etc not be derived from anything.
>>54655043
>It's possible you're right, but I wouldn't bet on it with all that Dunning-Kruger you're showing off.
how else would it work dumbass, how would you malloc anything if you're not allowed to cast from void pointer
>>54655057
>it allows for cleaner and more understandable code
There's nothing about "deriving everything from a single base class" that inherently makes your code better. In fact, it usually has the opposite effect, because you end up with a monolithic blob for your base class, or conversely, a base class so restricted that you need to downcast to get anything done.
In tkinter, is it possible to have some function that does all of the following:
- spawn a new window with a text entry field
- get the user's input once they press return
- text entry window destroys itself and returns the entered value to whatever called it
So I could just do something like
text = GetUserInput()
Where GetUserInput handles making the new window, binding a method to it, receiving the user input, and then returns the value.
I'm stuck on what has to return where because making the new text entry window involves instantiating a new class and it doesn't seem like you can return a value from __init__.
>>54655072
You're allowed to cast from void*, with some exceptions.
Function pointers are one of those exceptions because it breaks a different casting rule. It's not at all obvious that casting int* to int(*)[][] does not break any rule anywhere.
>>54655101
it's not a function pointer
>>54654829
Reasons to use malloc in C++:
1. Using a library function that requires a malloc allocated buffer. Not common, but I've seen it happen at least once... somewhere.
2. The new and delete operators will invoke an object's constructor and destructor respectively. If one wishes to delay object initialization for some reason, an alternative allocator may be a better idea. That said, if you don't want RAII, it begs the question as to why you are using C++. And also, one can always define a constructor and destructor to do nothing.

Damn you're pretty dense, aren't you?
All the "lol u guys r dumb" crap already made that clear, but you must like to lay it on thick.
>>54655134
it's clearly not a function pointer for fuck's sake, where are the parameters?
>>54655131
new doesn't allow dynamic allocation of a contiguous 2d array as far as i know
>>54655142
I know it's not a function pointer sweetie, that's why I'm calling you dense.
Function pointers are ONE EXEMPLE of a cast that is undefined behavior.
I'm telling you that what you're doing, which is int* to (int(*)[][]), not function pointers, is probably undefined behavior too under a strict interpretation of the standard.
I'm building a visualizer for fourier transformations in C++ and writing the math parts is killing me.
Can anybody recommend me a good scientific math lib? Cerns ROOT? Something from Boost?
>>54655078
I get what you're saying. But this Item base class is really only for things the Player can "use" when an input is given. Like a player clicks the mouse and it calls use() on whatever the current wielded "Item" is, that's it. Class Item just has a virtual function use(), that's pretty much it. This is why I asked the original question, I didn't know what to call this category of things.
>>54655178
>Function pointers are ONE EXEMPLE of a cast that is undefined behavior.
it's irrelevant, i'm only casting to a data type pointer, not a function pointer, function pointers are the only exception
void* are aligned like chars, it's save to cast form it, otherwise malloc wouldn't work

Not so.
>void* are aligned like chars, it's save to cast form it, otherwise malloc wouldn't work
Wrong; memory returned by malloc is aligned to largest possible required alignment, which is generally the word size (64bit on a modern CPU).
char is aligned to 1 byte (exactly 8bit on a modern CPU).
>>54655178

It's not.
And it's void * to int (*)[][]

>And it's void * to int (*)[][]
It's a cast from void* to (int(*)[][]), but the void* pointer is pointing to an int[m*n], not an int[m][n], that's why I'm (incorrectly) saying int* to int(*)[][]
>>54653946
variable length arrays are defined with C99, check which ever flag you need for gcc to enable them
>>54655297
>C99
Useless crap.
C89 is the only true C.
>>54655284
the void* only points to an allocated block of memory of the size that you called malloc with, it doesn't point to any specific type
>>54655268
Well you are accessing and setting the array elements with values known at compile-time, so it's probably optimized and run the same way.
>>54654981
not really, you also need a multiplication operator for 2d arrays
>>54655268
Because you're using constants, compiler probably constant folded everything away.
On the phone right now so can't be bothered to type out shit but compare two functions like this:
int get(int m, int n, int (*a)[n][m], int x, int y)
return element at x,y
and another with 1D array.
>>54655101
you're allowed to cast from void* to any object pointer
>>54655345
any real code would be subject to the same types of optimizations, there is no advantage of using the x[i * m + j * n] syntax over x[i][j]

Neither does malloc really. With malloc, you get a block of memory that you can index like a 1D array, but C and C++ both won't let you subscript an arbitrary pointer with multiple subscripts in the p[x][y] fashion because it doesn't know the dimensions. But you can easily transform any 2D subscripting into a 1D subscript if you have the length stored off somewhere. The new operator will just give you the same block of memory the malloc will.
>>54655198
>I'm building a visualizer for fourier transformations in C++ and writing the math parts is killing me.
You never write FFT yourself, only idiots do that. That's like implementing your own encryption, you just don't do that. Use FFTW (http://www.fftw.org) instead. It's very simple to use and has all kinds of possibilities to get close to optimal code.
>Can anybody recommend me a good scientific math lib?
Depends on what you need. Linear algebra? Maybe Eigen. If you want something complete in one package you may want to use Python + Numpy + Scipy + Matplotlib instead.
The ROOT framework is a pain in the ass to use imo. In our department everybody needs to work with it as the experiment we are working on uses *.root files for data. Basically, the first and only thing anybody does with the ROOT framework is converting those files into something that is not horrible to work with.
But well yeah, if you have masochistic tendencies, like barren looking plots and whatnot then go with ROOT. At least you can say it's a pretty complete framework for math (particularly statistics).
>>54655368
No it wouldn't, real code would most likely have x and y as variables which means a full set of address calculations.
>>54655392
no but the picture is
>>54655368
No. You can't make the same strong assumptions about what your program is trying to access if your variables are dynamic. Currently, your code is stored similarly because C and C++ align multi-dimensional arrays. To top it off though, Your cout probably compiles similarly.
The difference when you use dynamic variables, is that *x[1][0] (with something other than 0 at the end) will need a multiplication. With a 0 there, you need to load 1 variable before jumping the same as if you were using a 1d array
>>54655399
You can easily make dynamically allocated arrays with subscripts by doing something like this where ptr->cube is a 3 star pointer.unsigned i, j; /* make 3D cube */
ptr->cube = malloc(sizeof(unsigned char **) * x);
for (i = 0; i < x; i++)
ptr->cube[i] = malloc(sizeof(unsigned char *) * y);
for (i = 0; i < x; i++)
for (j = 0; j < y; j++)
ptr->cube[i][j] = malloc(sizeof(unsigned char) * z);
>>54655464
Anyone writes such code should be shot or sterilized at least
>>54655335
It's my understanding that the pointed-to obeject does have a type, and here that type is going to be int[].
The standard says that it is undefined behavior if "An object is assigned to an inexactly overlapping object or to an exactly overlapping
object with incompatible type (6.5.16.1).", and I'm not seeing where it defines int[] and int[][] as having compatible types.
If the standard does not explicitely allow it, then it is by definition undefined behavior.
>>54655464
Not him, or anyone arguing against that, but I sincerely hope no one fragments their free memory likes this
>>54655399int (*x)[m][n] = (int (*)[m][n]) malloc(sizeof(int[m][n]));
return *x[i][j];
>>54655491
>fragments
It's all continuous memory, you dumb shit, you think your system is that busy?
>>54655399
>Neither does malloc really
But you can do anything with the resulting memory block, like assign a pointer to a two dimensional array to the malloc return and index the continuous space as a multi-dimensional array. It's C after all. shit is fast and loose; that's why I love it.
>>54655487
in C at least (which would 99% carry over to C++) there is no particular type, you can pass a void pointer around from malloc and then cast from it, the compiler doesn't have to know the type
>>54655504
that is 3 dereference per access ``dumb shit''.
>>54655504
dumbass
at the very least it creates a lot of overhead at initialization and deallocation
>>54655504
You mean contiguous
And there isn't a guarantee that mallocing like that would make it contiguous, or would make it contiguous in a way that it's as easy to access as a 1d malloc'd array
>>54655491
java programmers do :>)
>>54655402
>Use FFTW (http://www.fftw.org)
This looks promising, thanks.
>>54655464
I really hope whatever program your doing that in doesn't require a large amount of performance. You're literally thrashing the cpu cache.
>>54655518
Oh yeah on a second reading I think you're right, there's no int[] type at all anywhere.
I'm full of shit, my bad.
>>54655598
Still faster than interpreted tho~
>>54655487
>It's my understanding that the pointed-to obeject does have a type,
Section 6.5 Expressions:
"The effective type of an object for an access to its stored value is the declared type of the object , if any.87)"
"87) Allocated objects have no declared type."
'Allocated objects' means objects returned from malloc (if you look at the definition of allocation and deallocation under the library section).
>>54655464
You are probably better of mallocing everything in one go instead.
>>54655504
No, it's not. Malloc does not only give you a bit of memory, malloc also saves some kind of header somewhere (depends on implementation where and what exactly is in that header). If possible you should always use as few mallocs as possible.
On the other hand, it probably won't matter measurably.
Still, I prefer to do three dimensional arrays simply by defining some struct liketypedef struct {
double *d;
size_t *size;
} array_t;
and then define a function likedouble *get_element ( array_t *A, size_t i, size_t j , … )
{
return &A [ i * A->size[0] * A->size[1] * … + j * A->size[1] * A->size[2] * … + … ]
}
etc. May not look as clean as just using A[i][j][…], but that gives you the additional possibility to check every array call, because when working with three or even more dimensional arrays, you are very likely to run into seg faults at some point. Then it is always nice to be able to give a proper error message. Or sometimes to even just ignore those or whatever is suitable.

I have been working in Windows environment for a few years now developing .Net apps but I finnaly changed to Ubuntu and I love.
Only problem is that I cannot flee from Visual Studio that shit is just so good so I run it inside a VM.
Mono is shit.
Now I'm interested to learn different languages.
For example C++ because Qt-creator and I want to add more functions to Clementine. Just basically implement some stuff from Jet Audio.
Also I'm into Java, now that Xamarians merged into the armpit of Microsoft I have the Forms for free so I can work with C#. But I want to learn Java to build "native written" apps for Android. I know I can do this with C++ too.
Which language should I choose? Java is basically C# so it will be familiar.
>>54655736

You've already bought into the corporate mold so java should be fine it's a more boiler plate filled tedious predecessor to c#.
C++ or C will most likely be a giant adjustment and odds are if your work is mainly .net apps now you're probably not looking to move to a field that will require c or c++ (Game Dev, Embedded devices, Ultra high performance applications, and general systems level work like drivers.)
