  3. 5.1 Introduction • Pointers • Powerful, but difficult to master • Simulate pass-by-reference • Close relationship with arrays and strings

  4. count countPtr myPtr count 7 7 5.2 Pointer Variable Declarations and Initialization • Pointer variables • Contain memory addresses as values • Normally, variable contains specific value (direct reference) • Pointers contain address of variable that has specific value (indirect reference) • Indirection • Referencing value through pointer • Pointer declarations • * indicates variable is pointer int *myPtr; declares pointer to an int, pointer of type int * • Multiple pointers require multiple asterisks int *myPtr1, *myPtr2; int

  5. 5.2 Pointer Variable Declarations and Initialization • Can declare pointers to any data type • Pointer initialization • Initialized to 0, NULL, or address • 0 or NULL points to nothing

  6. yPtr y 500000 600000 600000 5 5.3 Pointer Operators • & (address operator) • Returns memory address of its operand • Example int y = 5;int *yPtr;yPtr = &y; // yPtr gets address of y • yPtr “points to” y y 5 yPtr

  7. 5.3 Pointer Operators • *(indirection/dereferencing operator) • Returns synonym for object its pointer operand points to • *yPtr returns y (because yPtr points to y). • dereferenced pointer is lvalue *yptr = 9; // assigns 9 to y • * and & are inverses of each other

  8. 10 int a; // a is an integer 11 int *aPtr; // aPtr is a pointer to an integer 13 a = 7; 14 aPtr = &a; // aPtr assigned address of a 15 16 cout << "The address of a is " << &a 17 << "\nThe value of aPtr is " << aPtr; 18 19 cout << "\n\nThe value of a is " << a 20 << "\nThe value of *aPtr is " << *aPtr; 21 22 cout << "\n\nShowing that * and & are inverses of " 23 << "each other.\n&*aPtr = " << &*aPtr 24 << "\n*&aPtr = " << *&aPtr << endl; aPtr a 12FED4 12FED4 7 fig05_04.cpp(1 of 2) The address of a is 0012FED4 The value of aPtr is 0012FED4 The value of a is 7 The value of *aPtr is 7 Showing that * and & are inverses of each other. &*aPtr = 0012FED4 *&aPtr = 0012FED4

  9. 5.4 Calling Functions by Reference • 3 ways to pass arguments to function • Pass-by-value • Pass-by-reference with reference arguments • Pass-by-reference with pointer arguments • return can return one value from function • Arguments passed to function using reference arguments • Modify original values of arguments • More than one value “returned”

  10. 5.4 Calling Functions by Reference • Pass-by-reference with pointer arguments • Simulate pass-by-reference • Use pointers and indirection operator • Pass address of argument using & operator • Arrays not passed with & because array name already pointer • * operator used as alias/nickname for variable inside of function

  11. 1 // Fig. 5.6: fig05_06.cpp 2 // Cube a variable using pass-by-value. 3 #include <iostream> 5 using std::cout; 6 using std::endl; 8 int cubeByValue( int ); // prototype 10 int main() 11 { 12 int number = 5; 14 cout << "The original value of number is " << number; 17 number = cubeByValue( number ); 19 cout << "\nThe new value of number is " << number << endl; 21 return0; 23 } 25 26 int cubeByValue( int n ) 27 { 28 return n * n * n; // cube local variable n and return result 30 } fig05_06.cpp(1 of 2) number 5 125 n undefined 5 undefined The original value of number is 5 The new value of number is 125

  12. 1 // Fig. 5.7: fig05_07.cpp 2 // Cube a variable using pass-by-reference 3 // with a pointer argument. 4 #include <iostream> 6 using std::cout; 7 using std::endl; 9 void cubeByReference( int * ); // prototype 11 int main() 12 { 13 int number = 5; 14 15 cout << "The original value of number is " << number; 18 cubeByReference( &number ); 20 cout << "\nThe new value of number is " << number << endl; 22 return0; 24 } 27 void cubeByReference( int *nPtr ) 28 { 29 *nPtr = *nPtr * *nPtr * *nPtr; // cube *nPtr 31 } fig05_07.cpp(1 of 2) number 125 5 nPtr undefined The original value of number is 5 The new value of number is 125

  13. 5.5 Using const with Pointers • const qualifier • Value of variable should not be modified • const used when function does not need to change a variable • Principle of least privilege • Award function enough access to accomplish task, but no more • Four ways to pass pointer to function • Nonconstant pointer to nonconstant data • Highest amount of access • data can be modified through the dereferenced pointer • pointer can be modified to point to other data • Nonconstant pointer to constant data • Constant pointer to nonconstant data • Constant pointer to constant data • Least amount of access

  14. 1 // Fig. 5.10: fig05_10.cpp 2 // Nonconstant pointer to nonconstant data 9 #include <cctype> // prototypes for islower and toupper 11 void convertToUppercase( char * ); 13 int main() 14 { 15 char phrase[] = "characters and $32.98"; 17 cout << "The phrase before conversion is: " << phrase; 18 convertToUppercase( phrase ); 19 cout << "\nThe phrase after conversion is: " 20 << phrase << endl; 22 return0; 24 } 27 void convertToUppercase( char *sPtr ) 28 { 29 while ( *sPtr != '\0' ) { // current character is not '\0' 31 if ( islower( *sPtr ) ) // if character is lowercase, 32 *sPtr = toupper( *sPtr ); // convert to uppercase 34 ++sPtr; // move sPtr to next character in string 36 } 38 } c h a r … \0 phrase C H A R sPtr The phrase before conversion is: characters and $32.98 The phrase after conversion is: CHARACTERS AND $32.98

  15. 5.5 Using const with Pointers • Four ways to pass pointer to function • Nonconstant pointer to nonconstant data • Nonconstant pointer to constant data • pointer can be modified to point to any data item • data to which it points cannot be modified through that pointer • Constant pointer to nonconstant data • Constant pointer to constant data • Least amount of access

  17. 1 // Fig. 5.12: fig05_12.cpp 2 // Nonconstant pointer to constant data 5 void f( const int * ); // prototype 7 int main() 8 { 9 int y; 11 f( &y ); // f attempts illegal modification 13 return0; // indicates successful termination 15 } // end main 16 19 void f( const int *xPtr ) 20 { 21 *xPtr = 100; // error: cannot modify a const object 23 } // end function f const int * xPtr fig05_12.cpp(1 of 1)fig05_12.cppoutput (1 of 1) y 100 d:\cpphtp4_examples\ch05\Fig05_12.cpp(21) : error C2166: l-value specifies const object

  18. 5.5 Using const with Pointers • Four ways to pass pointer to function • Nonconstant pointer to nonconstant data • Nonconstant pointer to constant data • Constant pointer to nonconstant data • pointer always points to the same memory location • data at that location can be modified through the pointer • Constant pointer to constant data • Least amount of access

  19. 1 // Fig. 5.13: fig05_13.cpp 2 // Attempting to modify a constant pointer to 3 // non-constant data. 5 int main() 6 { 7 int x, y; 12 int * const ptr = &x; 13 14 *ptr = 7; // allowed: *ptr is not const 15 ptr = &y; // error: ptr is const; cannot assign new address 17 return0; 19 } fig05_13.cpp(1 of 1)fig05_13.cppoutput (1 of 1) x y 7 int * const ptr d:\cpphtp4_examples\ch05\Fig05_13.cpp(15) : error C2166: l-value specifies const object

  21. 1 // Fig. 5.14: fig05_14.cpp 2 // Attempting to modify a constant pointer to constant data. 3 #include <iostream> 5 using std::cout; 6 using std::endl; 8 int main() 9 { 10 int x = 5, y; 15 const int *const ptr = &x; 16 17 cout << *ptr << endl; 18 19 *ptr = 7; // error: *ptr is const; cannot assign new value 20 ptr = &y; // error: ptr is const; cannot assign new address 22 return0; 24 } fig05_14.cpp(1 of 1) 5 7 y int * const ptr const int x d:\cpphtp4_examples\ch05\Fig05_14.cpp(19) : error C2166: l-value specifies const object d:\cpphtp4_examples\ch05\Fig05_14.cpp(20) : error C2166: l-value specifies const object

  22. 5.5 Using const with Pointers • const pointers • Always point to same memory location • Default for array name • Must be initialized when declared

  23. location 3000 3004 3008 3012 3016 pointer variable vPtr v[0] v[1] v[2] v[4] v[3] 5.7 Pointer Expressions and Pointer Arithmetic • Pointer arithmetic • Increment/decrement pointer (++ or --) • Add/subtract an integer to/from a pointer( + or += , - or -=) • Pointers may be subtracted from each other • Pointer arithmetic meaningless unless performed on pointer to array • 5 element int array on a machine using 4 byte ints • vPtr points to first element v[ 0 ], which is at location 3000 vPtr = 3000 • vPtr += 2; sets vPtr to 3008 vPtr points to v[ 2 ]

  24. 5.7 Pointer Expressions and Pointer Arithmetic • Subtracting pointers • Returns number of elements between two addresses vPtr2 = v[ 2 ];vPtr = v[ 0 ];vPtr2 - vPtr == 2 • Pointer assignment • Pointer can be assigned to another pointer if both of same type • If not same type, cast operator must be used

  25. 5.8 Relationship Between Pointers and Arrays • Arrays and pointers closely related • Array name like constant pointer • Pointers can do array subscripting operations • Accessing array elements with pointers • Element b[ n ] can be accessed by *( bPtr + n ) • Called pointer/offset notation • Addresses • &b[ 3 ] same as bPtr + 3 • Array name can be treated as pointer • b[ 3 ] same as *( b + 3 ) • Pointers can be subscripted (pointer/subscript notation) • bPtr[ 3 ] same as b[ 3 ]

  26. 1 // Fig. 5.20: fig05_20.cpp 11 int b[] = { 10, 20, 30, 40 }; 12 int *bPtr = b; // set bPtr to point to array b …… 18 for ( int i = 0; i < 4; i++ ) 19 cout << "b[" << i << "] = " << b[ i ] << '\n'; …… 26 for ( int offset1 = 0; offset1 < 4; offset1++ ) 27 cout << "*(b + " << offset1 << ") = " 28 << *( b + offset1 ) << '\n'; …… 33 for ( int j = 0; j < 4; j++ ) 34 cout << "bPtr[" << j << "] = " << bPtr[ j ] << '\n'; …… 39 for ( int offset2 = 0; offset2 < 4; offset2++ ) 40 cout << "*(bPtr + " << offset2 << ") = " 41 << *( bPtr + offset2 ) << '\n'; 43 return0; 45 } fig05_20.cpp(1 of 2)

  27. Array b printed with: Array subscript notation b[0] = 10 b[1] = 20 b[2] = 30 b[3] = 40 Pointer/offset notation where the pointer is the array name *(b + 0) = 10 *(b + 1) = 20 *(b + 2) = 30 *(b + 3) = 40 Pointer subscript notation bPtr[0] = 10 bPtr[1] = 20 bPtr[2] = 30 bPtr[3] = 40 Pointer/offset notation *(bPtr + 0) = 10 *(bPtr + 1) = 20 *(bPtr + 2) = 30 *(bPtr + 3) = 40 fig05_20.cppoutput (1 of 1)

  32. 5.12.1 Fundamentals of Characters and Strings • Character constant • Integer value represented as character in single quotes • 'z' is integer value of z • 122 in ASCII • String • Series of characters treated as single unit • Can include letters, digits, special characters +, -, * ... • String literal (string constants) • Enclosed in double quotes, for example: "I like C++" • Array of characters, ends with null character '\0' • String is constant pointer • Pointer to string’s first character • Like arrays

  33. 5.12.1 Fundamentals of Characters and Strings • String assignment • Character array • char color[] = "blue"; • Creates 5 element char array color • last element is '\0' • Variable of type char * • char *colorPtr = "blue"; • Creates pointer colorPtr to letter b in string “blue” • “blue” somewhere in memory • Alternative for character array • char color[] = { ‘b’, ‘l’, ‘u’, ‘e’, ‘\0’ };

  34. 5.12.1 Fundamentals of Characters and Strings • Reading strings • Assign input to character array word[ 20 ] cin >> word • Reads characters until whitespace or EOF • String could exceed array size cin >> setw( 20 ) >> word; • Reads 19 characters (space reserved for '\0')

  35. 5.12.1 Fundamentals of Characters and Strings • cin.getline • Read line of text • cin.getline( array, size, delimiter ); • Copies input into specified array until either • One less than size is reached • delimiter character is input • Example char sentence[ 80 ]; cin.getline( sentence, 80, '\n' );

  36. 5.12.2 String Manipulation Functions of the String-handling Library • String handling library <cstring> provides functions to • Manipulate string data • Compare strings • Search strings for characters and other strings • Tokenize strings (separate strings into logical pieces)

  38. 12 char x[] = "Happy Birthday to You"; 13 char y[ 25 ]; 14 char z[ 15 ]; 16 strcpy( y, x ); // copy contents of x into y 22 strncpy( z, x, 14 ); // does not copy null character 23 z[ 14 ] = '\0'; // append '\0' to z's contents fig05_28.cpp(1 of 2) The string in array x is: Happy Birthday to You The string in array y is: Happy Birthday to You The string in array z is: Happy Birthday

  39. 12 char s1[ 20 ] = "Happy "; 13 char s2[] = "New Year "; 14 char s3[ 40 ] = ""; 18 strcat( s1, s2 ); // concatenate s2 to s1 24 strncat( s3, s1, 6 ); // places '\0' after last character 29 strcat( s3, s1 ); // concatenate s1 to s3 fig05_29.cpp(1 of 2) s1 = Happy s2 = New Year After strcat(s1, s2): s1 = Happy New Year s2 = New Year After strncat(s3, s1, 6): s1 = Happy New Year s3 = Happy After strcat(s3, s1): s1 = Happy New Year s3 = Happy Happy New Year
