I once had a matrix working like this
matrix[20][2]
So, since its indexed with 0, I used them as matrix[i][0] or matrix[i][1].
Then the other day, I forgot the 0 index, and used matrix[i][2].
And it worked perfectly fine! And worse so, the program didn't work anymore when I revert that back to matrix[i][1]. Also matrix[i][0] now had ridiculous values inside.
More importantly, there are other places in the code in which the matrix works with matrix[i][0 or 1]. THE SAME MATRIX.
Its just this particular segment that has gone haywire.
I am using mingw latest version, and no the matrices are not passed by reference to anything or anywhere. And they are all initialized to all 0 values by a loop at the start of the code. The matrices are double type.
My program is working fine, after about half an hour of randomly placing 0s, 1s and 2s somehow its working very fine. But I am afraid it would go bonkers again on another machine.
Does anyone know whats happening? Is it my compiler or my coding?
Thanks!

All the indexes do is perform a pointer arithmetic calculation. If the indexes are inside your array you get good results. If they aren't, you get bad results since you have corrupted memory outside the array bounds.

Hello. I am trying to learn how operator overloading works so I wrote
a simple class to help me practice. I understand the basic opertoar
overload like + - / *, but when I try to overload more complex
operator, I get stuck.
Here's a brief description what I want to do. I want to simulate a
matrix (2D array) from a 1D array. so what I have so far is something
like this:

Here is some code I wrote for Matrix multiplication for arbitrary
dimensionality known at compile-time. I am curious how practical it is. For
instance, is it common to know the dimensionality of matricies at
compile-time? Any help would be appreciated. Hopefully this code comes in
useful for someone, let me know if you find it useful, or if you have
suggestions on how to improve it.

Hi,
I've made a program from numerical recipes. Looks like I'm not allowed
to distribute the source code from numerical recipes but it shouldn't
even be necessary to do that.
My problem is that I'm not very experienced with pointers, pointers to
pointers and the like and I got 4 compiler warnings + I don't completely
understand how to build this "compact matrix" (see later).

Recently I have been commited to the task of "translating" some complex

times as fast as matlab ( the latest) .
I've used various techniques ( loop unrolling, loop jamming...) and
tried some matrix libraries : newmat (slow for large matrix) , STL
(fast but ..not usefull) , hand coding (brain consuming...), and

Hi,
I'm new to C (and programming in general), and I have to say that this site has helped me learn a great deal about C (thanks everybody!!). I've looked through several discussions specifically about reading a matrix from a file, but I think (based on my admittedly small amount of knowledge about things like this) that my problem is slightly different. My for-loops for fscanf-ing values from a user-specified file seems to be ignored...

Hi there,
I'm a novice C programmer working with a series of large (30,000 x

represent and store these matrices, I'd like to implement the sparse
matrices as a doubly-linked list, in which each non-zero cell is
stored roughly as follows:

int colnum

Hello experts,
I code an function to rotate a matrix by 90 degrees clockwise. The
matrix can be in any size provided its length equals to width. The one
minor limitation is that this requires an extra external macro
definition MTXROT_SIZE. Your comments are welcome on this code. Thank
you for your time.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
