Unexpected c pointer result -


hi have started learning c pointers , can't understand why getting different pointer value expected. here function

int test(void){     int i,j;      int **p = (int **)malloc(2 * sizeof(int *));      p[0] = (int *)malloc(2 * sizeof(int));      printf("p[0] = %d\n",p[0]);     p[1] = p[0];      printf("p[1] = %d\n",p[1]);     for(i = 0; < 2; i++){              for(j = 0; j < 2; j++) {                     p[i][j] = + j;                     printf("p[%d][%d] = %d\n",i,j,p[i][j]);             }     }      printf("result p[0][0] = %d\n",p[0][0]);   return 0; }

i expecting p[0][0] = 0 printed loop, equal 1 , value seems coming p[1][0], missing here?

printf output:

p[0] = 1224416 p[1] = 1224416 p[0][0] = 0 p[0][1] = 1 p[1][0] = 1 p[1][1] = 2 result p[0][0] = 1

first -- passing int* printf(), expects int (%d) , use (%p) printing address instead.

second --

p[1] = p[0];

the p[0] , p[1] pointers both pointing same address. means if modify 1 row (p[0]), second (p[1]) modified well.

and root of problem

i expecting p[0][0] = 0 printed loop, equal 1 , value seems coming p1[0], missing here?

+---+---+ | 0 | 0 | +---+---+  ^ ^  | |  | -------------------- p[0]  ---------------------- p[1]

now modify p[1], , looks this. in other words, values 0 , 1 of p[0] overwritten

+---+---+ | 1 | 2 | +---+---+  ^ ^  | |  | -------------------- p[0]  ---------------------- p[1]

instead of p[1] = p[0], assign p[1] (different) memory on heap well.

p[0] = malloc(2 * sizeof(int));  p[1] = malloc(2 * sizeof(int));

and p[0][0] correctly 0.

third -- recasting malloc redundant , may lead problems. do cast malloc return value?

in c++ can(should) use built in operators new , delete.

also dont forget free() allocated memory on heap.

Is there a better way to structure post methods in Class Based Views -

i'm using class based views in django , never specify url in ajax calls , omit action parameter in form because know these requests go through post method of class based view. notice view - profile page make many requests depending on user updating on page - post method become convoluted , if/else mess example: def post(self, request, *args, **kwargs): # handle user changing available date if request.post.get('availabledate') != none: self.updateavailabledate(request) return jsonresponse({'result':'success'}) if request.post.get('newprojectname') != none: creative_user = creativeuserprofile.objects.get(id = request.user.id) project = project.create_project(creative_user, request.post['newprojectname']) project.save() return jsonresponse({'projectid': project.id }) if request.post.get('projectimage') != none , request.files['file']: proj

performance - Why is XCHG reg, reg a 3 micro-op instruction on modern Intel architectures? -

i'm doing micro-optimization on performance critical part of code , came across sequence of instructions (in at&t syntax): add %rax, %rbx mov %rdx, %rax mov %rbx, %rdx i thought had use case xchg allow me shave instruction , write: add %rbx, %rax xchg %rax, %rdx however, dimay found agner fog's instruction tables , xchg 3 micro-op instruction 2 cycle latency on sandy bridge, ivy bridge, broadwell, haswell , skylake. 3 whole micro-ops , 2 cycles of latency! 3 micro-ops throws off 4-1-1-1 cadence , 2 cycle latency makes worse original in best case since last 2 instructions in original might execute in parallel. now... cpu might breaking instruction micro-ops equivalent to: mov %rax, %tmp mov %rdx, %rax mov %tmp, %rdx where tmp anonymous internal register , suppose last 2 micro-ops run in parallel latency 2 cycles. given register renaming occurs on these micro-architectures, though, doesn't make sense me done way. why wouldn't register renamer

jquery - Responsive Navbar with Sub Navbar -

good day, forgive me nav vocabulary not best. if question confusing apologize. i'm working on navigation bar needs centered on page @ 768px , above. items in nav open (or perhaps toggle) subnav lives directly below. these nav should appear centered on page. i have been able work through responsive portion of nav bar, having main items align vertically , sub nav menu of each item roll out below, , gave them indent separation. working well. however, issue not responsive side, behavior @ width greater 768px. happens toggling menu's sub navigation pushes other main items down page below sub nav. here's code: $(document).ready(function () { //stick in fixed 100% height behind navbar don't wrap $('#slide-nav.navbar-inverse').after($('<div class="inverse" id="navbar-height-col"></div>')); $('#slide-nav.navbar-default').after($('<div id="navbar-height-col"></d
