hey all,, i have to use a selection sort function to search an array of strings, this is what ive got so far, im not sure where to put the selectionSort in the main and so still unsure if its correct

May just be me, but I have no clue what you are trying to actually achieve.

Can you post some examples of what the results should be and that may make it clearer what you are trying to do, and what your question is.

Jimbo · Mar 25th, 2008, 11:43 PM

You probably want to call it after you've declared your list of strings. And then afterwards, either have a function to verify that it's sorted correctly, or print the sorted array and manually verify.

gmann145 · Apr 1st, 2008, 9:34 AM

basically the program is supposed to print the names of the array out in alphabetical based on the first name that you see, which happens to be their last for example:

Allen, Jim
Holland, Beth

some work of i've added since starting, i keep getting an error that says cannot convert parameter 1 from 'char [20][17]' to 'char []'

I'm pretty sure the problem is in your showArray, where you pass it something of type char[][] but expect something of type char[]. Change the function to accept your list of arrays, and you should be fine (logic should all still work appropriately, I think).

For future reference, please provide a line number with errors; makes it easier for us to find out where they are

haha ok now ive got everything working it just seems to not want to sort the names (X_X)

None of your loops actually ever run:

 c++ Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
for(int i=0; i>17; i++)
for(int i=0; i>17; i++)

You make i=0 and the loop only runs if i>17.

Jabo · Apr 19th, 2008, 8:09 PM

actually, it will run once 17 is exceeded; if that ever happens. I haven't looked at the code to see.

Since it's initialized to zero there, the next statement that could modify it would be either in the loop (which won't execute if it's zero) or after the loop (in which case it's too late, because the loop is done). The only possible way this could execute is if some other process, thread, or hardware (think memory-mapped I/O) modified the variable in between the initialization and the test. As it wasn't declared volatile, I don't see this happening, as the value would probably be cached in a register. In fact, given the lack of the volatile keyword as a clue to the compiler, any intelligent optimizer would probably eliminate the loop entirely.
