Concept explainers
For this exercise, we will examine the code generated by GCC for functions that have structures as arguments and return values, and from this see how these language features are typically implemented.
The following C code has a function process having structures as argument and return values, and a function values, and a function eval that tails process.
Gcc generates the following code for these two functions:
A. We can see on line 2 of function eval that it allocates 104 bytes on the stack. Diagram the stack frame for oval, showing the:Nal= that it stores on the stack prior to calling process. B. What value does eval pass in its call to process?
C. How does the code for process access the elements of structure arguments?
D. How does the code for pro cess set the fields of result structure r?
E. Complete your diagram of the stack frame for eval, showing how eval accesses the elements of structure r following the return from process.
F. What general principles can you discern about how structure values are passed as function arguments and how they are returned as function results?

- The Problem: You need to create a pointer to a function which takes ainteger argument and returns an array of pointers to functions which take oneargument, a string, and return an integer.Whew! That's a specification you have to read at least three times tofigure out that you can't understand it.How do you deal with such complexity.arrow_forwardHow do I create a function in C++ that takes in a file name on input and generates a one dimensional integer vector with 10 elements, and gives back the frequency of each element such as x(0) stores how many times 0 occurs in the file.arrow_forwardDefine a C function that takes two char arrays ca1, ca2, and the size of the arrays s1, s2 as the parameters. The program should compare both the arrays and return 1 if both the arrays are equal. Otherwise, return 0. Two char arrays will be equal if all the elements of both arrays are the same.arrow_forward
- Write a code Using Pointers that can print a table of values for coordinatepoints (x,y) for a given expressiona. Your code should be able to calculate the function values of typey=mx+cb. Ask the user to give input of m and c. Use pointersc. Ask the user to input how many data points of the function he wants togenerate. Use pointersd. Then dynamically allocate memory for those data pointse. Take input for the x coordinates and store them in the allocateddynamic memory using pointers.f. Calculate the corresponding y values and store them in anotherdynamically allocated memory array.g. Print the data points (x and y) in a tabular form. Use pointers.arrow_forwardMuscat College wants to maintain the students' record using a C++ Program. They want to add a module of searching in this program so as to search any particular students' information quickly by using Binary Search Technique. The database has Student_ID (int), Name, Grade (A/B/C), and Passing_Year(int) fields in each students' information. Write a C++ program to search a student information using Student_ID. The database is in order. If the searched product is found, then display product information otherwise display “Product not find “. 1) Creating a structure for a Students' record. 2)Accepting inputs (entering students' details) through keyboard at runtime for maximum 20 students. 3) Search (using Binary Search) a particular record based on the field studen_ID4) Show an error if the record is not found5) Show the position of the record found.arrow_forwardMuscat College wants to maintain the students' record using a CodeBlocks Program.

- Write a python function which will take 2 arguments. They are:arrow_forwardIn Python: Build a function that takes a record from your FASTA file as an argument, and returns a count of each amino acid coded for by the codons of the sequence. Keep in mind that because these records are not necessarily in the proper reading frame, so the user should be prompted to select a reading frame (0, +1, +2). You should put some thought into the presentation of your results by your main function, making sure they are clear and readable. The fasta file contains the below: >MD10G1276500 pacid=40089867 polypeptide=MD10G1276500 locus=MD10G1276500 ID=MD10G1276500.v1.1.491…arrow_forwardWrite a C language function named count that takes a void pointer and int parameter, representing a memory buffer, and a uint8_t parameter representing a byte, and returns an int result. The returned result should be the number of occurrences of the byte in the bufer. For example if the buffer p pointed to the bytes 01 12 01 23, then count(p, 4, 0x01) should return 2.arrow_forward
- For this assignment, you need only write a single-file C program. Your program will:Define a C structure ( sample struct )suitable to hold the defining characteristics of a:Sample (int list_len, float * value_list) - call this format a Sample data record.Write a separate function to :Read a file of delimited Sample data records into an array of pointers to your sample structs. Note: you may use a statically sized array of size 1024, however, each element of the array must be a pointer to a sample struct (as defined above). Initially each element of the array must be set to NULL (to indicated that it is not used), and then later to a dynamically allocated sample struct if it is to be used. Note: after dynamically allocating memory for a sample struct, you have enough memory for each/every component of the structure. However, for each component of that structure that is a pointer, you will eventually need to allocated memory for the “thing” that it points to as well (think array via…arrow_forwardIN C PROGRAMMING LANGAUGE AND COMMENT EVERY LINE PLEASE SO THAT I COULD UNDERSTAND Write a program that processes a data file of names in which each name is on a separate line of at most 80 characters. Here are two sample names: Hartman-Montgomery, Jane R. Doe, J. D. On each line the surname is followed by a comma and a space. Next comes the first name or initial, then a space and the middle initial. Your program should scan the names into three arrays—surname, first, and middle_init. If the surname is longer than 15 characters, store only the first 15. Similarly, limit the first name to ten characters. Do not store periods in the first and middle_init arrays. Write the array’s contents to a file, aligning the contents of each column: Hartman-Montgom Jane R Doe J Darrow_forwardFunction Implementation with Data Abstraction in C Programming 1.

Make sure that the larger number is always the numerator and divided by the smaller number to avoid division by zero error. int mod(int x, int y); - returns the computed remainder of two numbers x and y using the modulo operator %2.
