C 通过引用传递

Question

在我的 lSearch 函数(线性搜索)中，我试图通过引用传递一个名为 *numComparisons 的变量。

每次进行比较时，它都应该递增，但由于某种原因它没有这样做。为什么不？当它到达 main.. 的末尾时，该函数确实起作用(因为它会找到一个比较，或者如果没有找到比较，它将返回 -1)但是 numComparisons 值每次都输出为 0。

int lSearch(int arr[], int size, int target, int *numComparisons)
{
    int counter;

    for(counter = 0; counter < size; counter++)
    {  
        *numComparisons++;

        if(arr[counter] == target)
           return(*numComparisons);
    }
    return(-1);
}


int main(int argc, char * argv[])
{
   int enterNumbers[1000], copy[1000], counter;
   int numComparisons = 0, target = 26;

   printf("Enter in numbers and press -999 when you are done: ");

   for(counter = 0;; counter++)
   {
      scanf("%d", &enterNumbers[counter]);

      if(enterNumbers[counter] == -999)
          break;  
   }

   arrayCopy(enterNumbers, copy, counter);
   sort(copy, counter);

   if(lSearch(copy, counter, target, &numComparisons) >=0)
   {
      printf("Target number found in linear search.\n");
      printf("Number of comparisons: %d\n", numComparisons);
   }
   else
   {
      printf("Target number was not found in the linear search\n");
      printf("Number of comparisons: %d\n", numComparisons);
   }
   return 0;

Answer 1

改变

    *numComparisons++;

到

    (*numComparisons)++;

后缀递增的优先级高于解引用运算符，因此您的代码递增指针而不是递增指向的值。
