1 Introduction
Arrays & Pointers
October 11, 2021
This lab introduces you to arrays and pointers as important consructs to handle data in C. It will also give you some experience in writing larger programs in C, using functions to structure the program into modular units.
At the end of the lab, you should be able to:
• Declare, define and call functions which pass arguments both by value and reference. • Use pointers and arrays to manage and manipulate data.
• Use functions to organise complex code.
• Write programs consisting of multiple files and use header files to enable code reuse.
Before starting work you should read through this document and complete the preparatory tasks detailed in §2.
2 Preparation
Materials
Make sure you have everything you need to complete this lab.
Ensure that you have the following software installed on your computer: (i) a terminal program (e.g., xterm or similar on Linux/Mac OS, cygwin on Windows), (ii) a text editor (e.g., gedit or similar on Linux/Mac OS, notepad++ on Windows), (iii) the GNU compiler collection (i.e., gcc).
Self-study
Read §3 below, read up on any new material (in textbooks and/or online) that you need to, to accomplish the tasks. Remember to make notes of where you got the information, so that you can quickly go there again if something does not work as expected.
Answer the following questions:
1. Write down how you would initialise a one-dimensional array with the first ten elements of the Fibonacci sequence.
An example way to do this is int f[] = {1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55}; (If you don’t know what the Fibonacci sequence is, look it up!)
2. Write down how you would access the first, last and 200th element of a one-dimensional array a containing 400 elements.
Code to access (i) first element: a[0] (remember indices start from zero in C), (ii) last element: a[399] (as indices start from zero, the 400th element is at position 399), and (iii) 200th element: a[199].

3 x[0] = 42;
4 return;
5}
Listing 1: Sample function to alter the contents of an integer array using pass by reference.
3.
Write down the equations needed to compute the mean and the standard deviation of a set of numbers.
The equation for the mean of a set of N numbers x1, x2, …, xN is
N
μ = xn.
n=1
The equation for the standard deviation is
1 N
σ = N − 1 (xn − μ)2 n=1
where μ is the mean.
Write down a sample function in which an integer array is passed as an argument to a function by reference so that the function is able to update the contents of the array and return these changes to the calling function.See sample code in Listing 1. The integer array is x and should be declared in the calling function. After the function is called, the first element of x will be assigned the value 42. This value will be retained in x even when the function change_first() exits.
Laboratory Work Working with Arrays
Create a new file array_1d.c and open it with a text editor. Write a C-program containing (i) a function array_printf() that takes an integer array as an argument and prints out the value stored in each element to stdout and (ii) a main() function declares a local integer array named a, initialises it with the numbers 21, 6, 28, 36, 15, 1, 3, 10, 45, 55 and calls array_printf() with a as an argument. Use the const keyword in your defintion of array_printf() to declare that the function will not modify the contents of the array. Test the program and verify that it works as expected. A sample solution is given in Listing 2.
Add (i) a function array_max() that takes an array as an argument and returns the maxiumum of the values in the array and (ii) a function array_min_index() that takes an array as an argument and returns the index of the minimum value in the array. Modify main() so that it calls array_max() and array_min_index() and prints the results to stdout. A sample implementation of array_max() is given in Listing 3. This should be called in main() with a line:
int a_max = array_max(a,10);
A sample implementation of array_min_index() is given in Listing 4. This should be called in main() with a line:
int index = array_min_index(a,10);

• Summationa+b=cora−b=c.
• Hadamard1 (i.e., element-wise) product a ◦ b = c. • Dot product a⊤b = c.
• Computation of the length |a|.
• Normalisation a/|a| = c.
4.2 Reverse and Sort
Extend your array.h library to include functions to reverse the order of the elements in a, and sort the elements into order of increasing value.
