这是我的代码。它是一个使用高斯消元法和偏枢轴求解线性代数方程组的 C 程序。你能告诉我什么时候使用指针更好吗？

如果事先不知道数组(Matrix)的大小，请使用指针。数组一旦声明为特定大小就无法增长或缩小。

但是，另一方面，指针可以分配内存(使用malloc())、释放内存(使用free())和重新分配内存(使用realloc())。

在您的代码中，这些行

A = allocate_matrix(n);
 for( i = 1; i <= n; ++i)
  for(j = 1; j <= n; ++j)
   fscanf(ifp,"%lf", &A[i][j]);

从文件读取大小后动态分配矩阵 A。对于数组来说这是不可能的。
