スタック領域にサイズの大きな配列は確保できない

スタック領域にサイズの大きな配列は確保できないので、ヒープ領域を利用し動的に確保するべきだが、関数の外側に外部変数として宣言するとこの問題をある程度回避することができる。
以下の例では float data[1048576][1024]; を関数の中で初期化すると Segmentation fault (core dumped) が発生する。

# include <stdio.h>
# include <stdlib.h>
float data[1048576][1024];
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
  /* float data[1048576][1024]; */  /* Segmentation fault (core dumped) */
  data[128][32] = 2.71828f;
  fprintf(stdout, "%f\n", data[128][32]);
  return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

負の整数を符号無し整数としてscanした時に起こる問題

マイナスが付いていてもそのまま読み込まれ、符号あり整数値から符号無し整数値に変換されてしまう。

# include <stdio.h>
# include <stdlib.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
  int i;
  unsigned int unsigned_integer[128];
  for (i = 1; i < argc; i++)
    sscanf(argv[i], "%u", &unsigned_integer[i]);
  for (i = 1; i < argc; i++)
    fprintf(stdout, "\t%u", unsigned_integer[i]);
  putchar('\n');
  return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

$ ./scan_unsigned 0 1 2 4 9 -9 -31
	0	1	2	4	9	4294967287	4294967265

グローバル変数の配列をextern宣言する場合はポインタではなく配列で宣言

グローバル変数の配列をextern宣言する場合、ポインタで宣言してもコンパイルできるがsegmentation faultが発生する。配列は配列としてextern宣言する。

# include <stdio.h>
# include <stdlib.h>

int tensor[7][6][5][4];

void set_tensor(unsigned int);

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
  if (argc < 2) return EXIT_FAILURE;
  set_tensor((unsigned int)atoi(argv[1]));
  fprintf(stdout, "%d\n", tensor[0][1][2][3]);
  return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

# include <stdio.h>
# include <stdlib.h>

/* extern int ****tensor; can be compiled, but does not work */
extern int tensor[7][6][5][4];

void set_tensor(unsigned int seed)
{
  int i, j, k, l;
  srand(seed);
  for (i = 0; i < 7; i++)
    for (j = 0; j < 6; j++)
      for (k = 0; k < 5; k++)
        for (l = 0; l < 4; l++)
          tensor[i][j][k][l] = rand();
}

C99では標準でヘッダファイルstdbool.hによりbool型が利用できるようになった

# include <stdio.h>
# include <stdlib.h>
# include <stdbool.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
  bool test = false;
  if (argc == 2) test = true;
  if (test) fprintf(stdout, "%s\n", argv[1]);
  return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}
