Compound data type: union Consider the following code: #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> union id { int student; char faculty[256]; }; union id personnel; void main() { strcpy(personnel.faculty, "A1120989"); personnel.student = 1000798123; printf("The student id is %d\n", personnel.student); printf("The faculty id is %s\n", personnel.faculty); printf("The size of id is %d", sizeof(personnel)); } What is the "sizeof" the union personnel?

256

Compound data type: struct Consider the following code: #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> struct Course { int sln; char title[256]; char instructor[250]; int time; }; struct Course ser222; void main() { ser222.sln = 1774; strcpy(ser222.title, "Data Structures & Algorithms"); strcpy(ser222.instructor, "Acuna, Ruben"); printf("Memory allocated for this structure is %d", sizeof(ser222)); } How much memory is allocated for this structure?

516 bytes

Declaring Enumerations Consider the following code: enum { Sun=0, Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri, Sat } days; enum days day = Mon; What does the "sun=0" part do?

Forces enum elements to be numbered from zero - otherwise their values are not well defined.

Using Enumerations Consider the following code? Days x = Mon, y = Fri; while (x != y) x++; What is the value of x, after x++ is executed and if x was Sat before?

If x was saturday, then x = 6. If you do x++ then the value becomes a 7. 7 isn't actually mapped to any of the days of the week. That is a potential problem. We want to avoid doing manipulation like ++ and hard code what the value should be.

Compound data type: struct Consider the following code: #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> struct Course { int sln; char title[256]; char instructor[250]; int time; }; struct Course ser222; void main() { ser222.sln = 1774; strcpy(ser222.title, "Data Structures & Algorithms"); strcpy(ser222.instructor, "Acuna, Ruben"); printf("Memory allocated for this structure is %d", sizeof(ser222)); } What does "sizeof(ser222)" do?

It goes to a particular data type to find how many bytes it takes up. In this case, it finds how many bytes are needed for the ser222 course.

Compound data type: struct Why is structure useful?

It's useful when you have pieces of data that need to go together. Let's say I have points like x and y or a rectangle with points and height and width: that's where I want to have a struct because I want to keep those pieces of information together.

Parameter Passing Different languages have different ways of implementing parameter passing. C has two general mechanisms:

Pass-by-value Pass-by-address (pointer)

Compound data type: union Why is union useful?

Sometimes you don' t know ahead of time what we want to store in a variable.

Implementing Nodes Write an example of a Node

Struct Node{ char name [length]; int data; char email[length] struct Node* next; };

Compound data type: struct Consider the following code: #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> struct Course { int sln; char title[256]; char instructor[250]; int time; }; struct Course ser222; void main() { ser222.sln = 1774; strcpy(ser222.title, "Data Structures & Algorithms"); strcpy(ser222.instructor, "Acuna, Ruben"); printf("Memory allocated for this structure is %d", sizeof(ser222)); } The memory should be 514 instead of 516? Why are there 2 more bytes?

The char array called instructor is 250 bytes. 250 is not a multiple of 4. A 32 bit processor can read 4 bytes at a time. A 64 bit processor can read 8 bytes at a time. The processor adds padding of 2 bytes to align the data in memory.

Creating types with typedef Why not just use the variable type directly?

The reason is annotation. You know more about what the variable is. For example typedef char FlagType is not just a char, it is a flag. It is just another way to use semantics to let us know how the variable is supposed to be used.

Compound data type: union How is memory allocated for a union?

The size of a struct instead of being the sum of the size of each of the elements inside of it.....it is simply the size of the largest thing inside of it because it needs to have space to store that thing. If the union is using an element that is smaller than the largest thing, then it will only use the amount of bytes needed for that smaller element. The different elements in the union are stacked on top of each other instead of listed in a straight line. The largest element is at the bottom.

Structure Padding Why is it important to align the data correctly to avoid unnecessary paddings?

Unnecessary padding takes up time and memory.

Pass by Reference

Value being passed in copied to a new location

Pass by value

Value being passed in copied to a new location

Pass by reference (pointer)

Value being passed in copied to a whole new location

Implementing Nodes How can we represent an empty list?

We can use "NULL".

Implementing Nodes How do you retrieve a node from a linked list?

We will retrieve the node before the node we want so we can have more flexibility. struct Node* selectByName(char* name, struct Node* front){ struct Node* prev = NULL; struct Node* iter = front; while(iter != NULL){ if(strcmp(iter->name, name) == 0) return prev; else{ prev = iter; iter = iter->next; } } return NULL; } int main(){ .... struct Node* sel = selectByName("name", list); free(sel->next); sel->next = NULL; }

Compound data type: union Consider the following code: #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> union id { int student; char faculty[256]; }; union id personnel; void main() { strcpy(personnel.faculty, "A1120989"); personnel.student = 1000798123; printf("The student id is %d\n", personnel.student); printf("The faculty id is %s\n", personnel.faculty); printf("The size of id is %d", sizeof(personnel)); } Why is the output show "The faculty id is 1/2^a;0989"?

You don't get the string that is stored in faculty because the first part of the string..... the first four bytes have been overwritten by the bytes that are needed to store the student id number.

Implementing Nodes What is a node?

a collection of two sub-elements or parts. A data part that stores the element and a next part that stores the link to the next node.

Parameter Passing Pass-by-value

a formal parameter is a local variable in the function. It is initialized to the value of the actual parameter. It is a copy of the actual parameter. The copy will exist as an entry in a new function stack frame.

Functions and parameter passing The purpose of functions are twofold:

abstraction and reusability

Pointers consider the following code: int var; var = 10; int *ptr = &var; *ptr = 20; int **ptrPtr = &ptr; **ptrPtr = 30; What is stored in memory for ptrPtr?

address of ptr

Using Enumerations Recall in that the previous example we created a variable with "enum days day;". This is a little awkward because we have to write "enum days" for the type name. How can we fix this with typdef?

enum { Sun=0, Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri, Sat } days; typedef enum days Days; Days now = Mon;

Implementing Nodes What is a list?

formed when multiple nodes are linked together to form a chain.

Pointers main.c struct grade_node { int value; char assignment[255]; struct grade_node *next;}; } // lets create the first element

head = malloc(sizeof(struct grade_node));

region of shared memory that, over time, can contain values with different data types.

Implementing Nodes How do you remove a node from the front of a linked list?

removeFront(struct Node* front){ if(front != NULL) struct Node* temp = front; front = front->next; free(temp); }

Accessing members of a struct Consider the following code: struct Course { int sln; char title[256]; char instructor[250]; int time; } struct Course ser222; struct Course* cse360; Write an example of direct access to the data (stack memory)

ser222.sln = 1774; strcpy(ser222.title, "Data Structures & Algorithms"); strcpy(ser222.instructor, "Acuna, Ruben");

Functions and parameter passing Reusability

statements that can be executed in more than one place in the program.

Functions and parameter passing Abstraction

statements that form a conceptual unit.

Implementing Nodes How do you add a node to the front of an existing linked list?

struct Node* addfront(struct Node* node, struct Node* front){ node->next = front; front = node; return front; }

Pointers main.c struct grade_node { int value; char assignment[255]; struct grade_node *next;}; } void create_head1(struct grade_node *head);struct grade_node *create_head2(struct grade_node *head);void create_head3(struct grade_node **head); // start by defining an allocating a linked list for grade_node; // it is NULL as it does not have any members in the list yet

struct grade_node *head = NULL, *head2 = NULL, *head3 = NULL; struct grade_node *headCreateInFunction = NULL;

Parameter Passing Pass-by-address (pointer)

the formal parameter is a pointer to the actual parameter. The address will be stored as entry in the stack frame, but may point to both stack or heap memory. (This is technically known as pass-by-reference implemented by using pointers with pass-by-value.)

Pass by reference (pointer) Pass by reference =

the location of non-primitive is known and can be directly access and modified by called method()

Compound data type: union Programmers must make sure ___________

the proper type is used at the proper time.

Implementing Nodes How do you traverse a linked list and display all the contents?

void display(struct Node* front){ struct Node* iter = front; while(front){ printf("name: %s\n", iter->name); iter = iter->next; } }

Implementing Nodes As a first step to creating a list, __________

we need to implement a node struct.

Functions and parameter passing Functions communicate with the rest of the program by:

▪ Either changing the global/static variables ▪ Using parameters and/or return values
