puts(someFun2());

Answer Posted / susie

Answer :

Garbage values.

Explanation:

Both the functions suffer from the problem of dangling
pointers. In someFun1() temp is a character array and so the
space for it is allocated in heap and is initialized with
character string “string”. This is created dynamically as
the function is called, so is also deleted dynamically on
exiting the function so the string data is not available in
the calling function main() leading to print some garbage
values. The function someFun2() also suffers from the same
problem but the problem can be easily identified in this case.

I need your help, i need a Turbo C code for this problem.. hope u'll help me guys.? Your program will have a 3x3 array. The user will input the sum of each row and each column. Then the user will input 3 values and store them anywhere, or any location or index, temporarily in the array. Your program will supply the remaining six (6) values and determine the exact location of each value in the array. Example: Input: Sum of row 1: 6 Sum of row 2: 15 Sum of row 3: 24 Sum of column 1: 12 Sum of column 2: 15 Sum of column 3: 18 Value 1: 3 Value 2: 5 Value 3: 6 Output: Sum of Row 1 2 3 6 4 5 6 15 7 8 9 24 Sum of Column 12 15 18 Note: Your program will not necessary sort the walues in the array Thanks..

Termination of the program will depends on how the programmer will apply. Sample output: Movie Seats Reservation Summary of Seats: Seat 1: Available Seat 2: Available Seat 3: Available Seat 4: Available Seat 5: Available Enter seat no. (Press 0 to terminate Or the assigned seat capacity) : 1 Movie Seats Reservation Summary of Seats: Seat 1: Reserve Seat 2: Available Seat 3: Available Seat 4: Available Seat 5: Available Enter seat no. (Press 0 to terminate Or the assigned seat capacity) : 6 The Seat no. is out of range! Movie Seats Reservation Summary of Seats: Seat 1: Reserve Seat 2: Available Seat 3: Available Seat 4: Available Seat 5: Available Enter seat no. (Press 0 to terminate Or the assigned seat capacity) : 1 The Seat no. is already reserved! Movie Seats Reservation Summary of Seats: Seat 1: Reserve Seat 2: Available Seat 3: Available Seat 4: Available Seat 5: Available Enter seat no. (Press 0 to terminate Or the assigned seat capacity) : 0 GoodBye... Thank You!!!
