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...

What is happening when Matlab is starting a "parallel pool"? -

running parallel cpu processes in matlab starts command parpool() according documentation , function: [creates] special job on pool of workers, , [connects] matlab client parallel pool. this function takes bit of time execute, on order of 30 seconds. in other multi-cpu paradigms openmp, parallel execution seems totally transparent -- i've never noticed behavior analogous matlab (granted i'm not experienced parallel programming). so, happening between time parpool() called , when finishes executing? takes long? parallel computing toolbox enables run matlab code in parallel using several different paradigms (e.g. jobs , tasks, parfor , spmd , parfeval , batch processing), , run either locally (parallelised across cores in local machine) or remotely (parallelised across machines in cluster - either 1 own, or 1 in cloud). in of these cases, code run on matlab workers , copies of matlab without interactive desktop. if you're intending run on remo...

php - Cannot override Laravel Spark authentication with own implementation -

during login process of laravel spark need request token of remote api. api stores exact same users , passwords laravel spark application. therefore need username , non hashed password of user during authentication process. i thought overriding authenticated method solution problem. in routes/web.php override post /login endpoint , pointing endpoint own logincontroller: <?php namespace app\http\controllers\auth; use illuminate\support\facades\log; use illuminate\http\request; use laravel\spark\http\controllers\auth\logincontroller sparklogincontroller; class logincontroller extends sparklogincontroller { /** * create new login controller instance. * * @return void */ public function __construct() { parent::__construct(); } /** * handle successful authentication attempt. * * @param request $request * @param \illuminate\contracts\auth\authenticatable $user * @return response */ public fu...
