my unit tests take AGES to compile

Personally I would not catch the polymorphic type by value
IDC about what exception it is I just want to get a unit test failure when it occurs

one more reason not to copy it
BinaryByter
lol
olli
my opinion :D

rate my spageth that somebody toucha
BinaryByter
If latter, how to improve?
BinaryByter
Im that good? :D

Sure

Hi

Hi

sure, thanks

Hey guys.
LoneWolf
I need help with some doubts.
LoneWolf
I'm a complete beginner in programming, the language I'm using is C.
LoneWolf
So, I stumbled upon some pieces of code on stackexchange, which I couldn't understand.

How the heck getchar() works, I'm having trouble finding some links which can explain me.

getchar reads single characters (bytes) from standardint
BinaryByter
as defined by posix
LoneWolf
I'm on a very shitty smartphone.
Do you want me to give you the link to stackexchange post or paste a pic of code from my notebook.
BinaryByter
BinaryByter
send the link
BinaryByter
easiest
LoneWolf
former
Right now, it won't be possible because I unexpectedly lost power in the lab PC due to cut, and I have lost the link, sorry.
BinaryByter
lol okay
LoneWolf
But, I jotted it down anyways.
BinaryByter
jotted?
LoneWolf
Wait, let me write it nicely.
BinaryByter
Oggay :D
LoneWolf

Today, I read up way too much code, I'm feeling sick now, I read up thing after thing, tried to solve too many doubts, my mind is screwed badly.
BinaryByter
when it does, it stops
BinaryByter
What is the issue you are facing?
LoneWolf
See, first of all, codeBlocks throws a "multiple character.... something" warning at compilation, which I ignored and when I entered a number , so that first while evaluates to false, it doesn't terminate(return 0).
BinaryByter
BinaryByter
was the warning at the while loop?
BinaryByter
at the "\n"?
LoneWolf
Sorry, for delay, I have a very shitty smartphone, don't yet have a laptop and c is fun.
LoneWolf
Yes! Same line
LoneWolf
Second while loop to be exact.
BinaryByter
else it might be interpreted as a strinc
BinaryByter
you prolly want something along the lines of this:
LoneWolf
"\n" is a single character. thus you should use '\n'
Oh, I did use single quotes in my code, just wrote wrong in the pic, sorry.
BinaryByter
char *getString () {
char* tmp;
char* tmp1;
do {
scanf ("%s", tmp);
/*merge the two strings together*/
} while (tmp != '\n')
return tmp1;
}
LoneWolf
what do you want to achieve by this code?
I was trying to get my head around scanf and getchar(), so I have developed this bad habit of implementing new pieces of code from web while investigating my issues.
So, I tried to implement this code, ran into the same doubts as the guy who asked it, now the power's gone.
BinaryByter
lol
BinaryByter
who are you learning programming for?
BinaryByter
if its not for uni, learn C++
BinaryByter
its just a lot easier
BinaryByter
while still being as powerful
BinaryByter
(if not ten thousand times more)
olli
char *getString () {
char* tmp;
char* tmp1;
do {
scanf ("%s", tmp);
/*merge the two strings together*/
} while (tmp != '\n')
return tmp1;
}
you need to allocate memory when using scanf
BinaryByter
doesnt scanf do that for ya?
BinaryByter
is it just me or does the C-stdlib mostly consist of very thin assembler syscall wrappers?
BinaryByter
isnt that php-mentality?
Ludovic 'Archivist'
is it just me or does the C-stdlib mostly consist of very thin assembler syscall wrappers?
not exactly, but they are made to look that way
olli
is there like any c-stdlib function that does allocate memory?
olli
besides the obvious malloc, realloc, calloc
Dima
you can write your own
LoneWolf
Actually, I'm pursuing Electronics engineering, frehman here, at a no name uni, I wanted to pursue CS but couldn't cut it, so here I'm wasting my freetime on learning c, because it's in our course too
