Qt double array with weird result
-
Hey guys!
I was playing around with arrays and I created a double array:
HEADER:
@class arraying : public QMainWindow
{
Q_OBJECTpublic:
explicit arraying(QWidget *parent = 0);
~arraying();public:
double array[10];};
@I then created a label which would write out the array number under each other. The expected result would be a bunch of "0"-s...
arraying.cpp
@arraying::arraying(QWidget *parent) :
QMainWindow(parent),
ui(new Ui::arraying)
{
ui->setupUi(this);
QString text;
for (int i=0; i<=10; i++)
{
text+="<font text size=2>";
text+=QString::number(i);
text+=" = ";
text+=QString::number(array[i]);
text+="<br>";
text+="</font>";
}ui->label_array->setText(text);}@
When I run the program I get a bizarre result...!http://db.tt/fXISEATQ(Result)!
What is the reason for this? Is there a way I can create a double array with empty elements? (other than with an if cycle).
Thank you ahead,

@
double array[10]
@only reserves space for ten doubles, it does not initialize the data! That means the memory still has the contents it had before (maybe some image data, or else - it's not predictable!) and thus the doubles contain more or less random data.
You will have to initialize the data yourself:
@
for(int i=0; i < 10; ++i)
array[i] = 0.0;
@A better solution would be to use one of Qt's container classes, like [[Doc:QVector]] or [[Doc:QList]]. Those initialize the contents with a default value.
bq. From "Qt Container classes":/doc/qt-4.7/containers.html description:
The documentation of certain container class functions refer to default-constructed values; for example, QVector automatically initializes its items with default-constructed values, and QMap::value() returns a default-constructed value if the specified key isn't in the map. For most value types, this simply means that a value is created using the default constructor (e.g. an empty string for QString). But for primitive types like int and double, as well as for pointer types, the C++ language doesn't specify any initialization; in those cases, Qt's containers automatically initialize the value to 0.

Ow that makes sense. So basically it doesn't clear the memory section it created.
Thank you for the quick reply!

Hello,
i need a double 2dim array. The compiler say that i do not set ; , {} right, but for me it is not clear why.
I defined in header file @double Rm[8][3];
@and then into the cpp file
@Rm[8][3]={{1.15, 10.14, 99.93},
{1.16, 10.20, 100.21},
{1.15, 10.17, 100.28},
{1.16, 10.17, 100.05},
{1.15, 10.13, 99.91},
{1.19, 10.20, 99.88},
{1.1, 10.14, 10.16},
{1.15, 10.14, 99.86}};
@Some ideas? Thank you for your help.

Hi,
Please don't revive old (2 years) closed topics, create a new thread.
As for your problem, it's not Qt specific, you should rather ask on either the C++ guru subforum or on a C/C++ forum.
