Speed of finding a size of an array.

Hi,
a)
int grid[1010][1010];
Which of the following is faster?
1. memset(grid,0,1010*1010);
2. memset(grid,0,sizeof(grid));

b) Is there any faster alternative to initializing memory?

c) What is the difference between comp.lang.c and alt.comp.lang.c ?

d) Is there any performance difference in local and global array?

Thanking you

1 would probably be faster.
sizeof grid is equal to 1010*1010*sizeof(int),
so 1 and 2 are different.
Usually when people ask "which is faster?"
they mean for two equivalent operations.

1. since you initialize only part of the array (typically
sizeof(int)/sizeof(char)) but this is probably not what you expected.
b) Is there any faster alternative to initializing memory?
int *g = (int*)grid;
int *p = g + 1010*1010;
while(p-- != g)
*p = 0;

?
c) What is the difference between comp.lang.c and alt.comp.lang.c ?
alt.
d) Is there any performance difference in local and global array?


should not.

You probably meant:
1. memset(grid,0,1010*1010*sizeof(int));
Otherwise the two statements are not equivalent.

I would expect a modern compiler to compute
the result of "1010*1010*sizeof(int)" at compile
time, therefore there would be no difference
between 1. & 2.
If that is not the case, then the only difference
would be the time required to compute the product.
b) Is there any faster alternative to initializing memory? That depends on the target CPU, the compiler being used and
the details of the memset() provided in the C library you
are using.
c) What is the difference between comp.lang.c and alt.comp.lang.c ? I have not looked into alt.comp.lang.c, so I do not know
anything about its current contents, level, etc.
In general, anybody can create a newsgroup under the "alt."
hierarchy, creating a group under "comp." requires a formal
proposal & voting process.
d) Is there any performance difference in local and global array?

As in b) depends on CPU and compiler. You should run a test to
find out in your system.

You are overlooking a small, but important detail, which doesn't only

Great... I love puzzles.

memset sets byte and will *incorrectly* chop 0x3F2 to 0xF2. Subsequent
inspection of the array will then yield 0xF2F2F2F2 as raw integer value
which (probably) isn't what the OP expects (assuming a 32 bit integer).

Right?

updating it manually if the size of grid changes.

Nope. 0x3F2 is 1010 decimal, and is used in the third argument to
memset(), which is of type size_t. It's not truncated to a byte.

You'll find the answer in other responses in this thread. If you want
to figure it out for yourself, ask yourself why these two:
memset(grid,0,1010*1010);
memset(grid,0,sizeof(grid));
are *not* equivalent.

The first one sets 1010 * 1010 bytes.
The second one sets 1010 * 1010 ints. Which is usually two or four times
more than 1010 bytes.

Christian 1 was therefore referring to the fact that sizeof(grid) is a
the correct size, while 1010*1010*sizeof(int) is evaluated as
(int)(1010*1010) * sizeof(int), which overflows in the case that an int

int grid[1010][1010];

No, Christian suffered from a severe lack of concentration. The problem
you spotted could have been used for some face saving, but I didn't spot
it (and there were maybe five years where I used implementations where
this would have been a problem, that is int = 16 bit and enough memory
for 1010 x 1010 ints).

Not in C. However you have over 4 million bytes to initialise. A lot of

Dunno. d) Is there any performance difference in local and global array?

Not really. It is a micro-optimisation problem. One some systems the global
might be slightly faster (because of overhead in setting up the local
array), on other systems the local may be slightly faster (maybe because the
stack is more likely to be in the cache). But the difference is probably
trivial in comparison to the algorithm you use to manipuate the array.

The problem is that, in ANSI C

However if the memory is being cleared in parallel, really you want to do

Only for suitable types of `array'.

Sorry; nobody named "comp.programming.threads" lives

(More seriously, C's model of the computing universe is

to parallelize in C, I'd not worry about memset() until after
I'd done something about I/O.)

If you were a games programmer you'd have something called a DMA engine,
which will do block transfers and clears in parallel.
DMAmemcpy() is one of the first things to implement / learn how to use.

You do of course also have to learn how to use a pipelined graphics system,
and parallel audio. We cannot blank the screen every time a baddie dies with

Don't teach your grandmother to suck eggs. I was
writing parallel code before C was invented, running
simultaneous programs in the CPU and in the hardware of
two independent I/O channels, and getting the whole thing
to synchronize. Real-time streaming quadrophonic audio
from disk to A-to-D converter, using 1960's hardware.
(Full disclosure: The original version of this program
was written by someone else, but I wound up owning it for
a couple of years and extended it in various ways. I
learned a lot by reading that other guy's code; he was a
really good craftsman.)

Oddly enough, some of the now-unfashionable languages
and libraries of the time were able to overlap I/O with
processing, a capability lacking in C's simple model.
Nowadays we try to parallelize by foisting the problem
off on the O/S; this is effective to some extent, but
involves some compromises in throughput. I recently
trouble-shot a customer problem that arose entirely from
relying on the O/S to do the program's buffering for it;
if the program's I/O model had allowed it to control its
own buffering the problem would never have arisen.
