Program: So I made a program that take two numbers, N and L. N is the size of a 2D array and L is a number from 3 - 16. The program builds the array and starts at the center and works its way out in a counter clockwise spiral. I is the value of the center and its as you go through the array( in the spiral ) the value will increase by one. It it is prime, that number will be assigned to that spot and if not it * will take its place instead.
Error: I'm getting a "Floating point exception " error, how would I solve this?
Code:
void Array_Loop( int *Array, int n, int L ) ;
int Is_Prime( int Number ) ;
int main( int argc, char *argv[] ){
int **Array ;
int n, L ;
n = atoi( argv[1] ) ;
L = atoi( argv[2] ) ;
Matrix_Build( &Array, n, n ) ;
Array_Loop( Array, n, L ) ;
return 0 ;
}
void Array_Loop( int *Array, int n, int L ){
int i, j, k, h ;
int lctn, move;
lctn = n / 2 + 1 ;
i = lctn ;
j = lctn ;
move = 1
while( i != 0 && j != n ){
for( j = lctn ; j < lctn + move ; j++ ){
if( L % 2 == 2) Array[i][j] = -1 ;
else Array[i][j] = Is_Prime( L ) ;
L++ ;
}
move = move * -1 ;
for( i = i ; i > lctn - move ; i-- ){
if( L % 2 == 2) Array[i][j] = -1 ;
else Array[i][j] = Is_Prime( L ) ;
L++ ;
}
move-- ;
for( j = j ; j > lctn - move ; j-- ){
if( L % 2 == 2) Array[i][j] = -1 ;
else Array[i][j] = Is_Prime( L ) ;
L++ ;
}
move = move * -1 ;
for( i = i ; i < lctn - move ; i-- ){
if( L % 2 == 2) Array[i][j] = -1 ;
else Array[i][j] = Is_Prime( L ) ;
L++ ;
}
move++ ;
}
}
int Is_Prime( int Number ){
int i ;
for( i = 0 ; i < Number / 2 ; i++ ){
if( Number % i != 0 ) return -1 ;
}
return Number ;
}
Answer
You are getting Floating point exception because Number % i, when i is 0:
int Is_Prime( int Number ){
int i ;
for( i = 0 ; i < Number / 2 ; i++ ){
if( Number % i != 0 ) return -1 ;
}
return Number ;
}
Just start the loop at i = 2. Since i = 1 in Number % i it always be equal to zero, since Number is a int.
