I'm trying to make a Huffman code to practice C coding and I keep geting the same error.
Let me explain the code. First it creates the struct below:
struct sNo {
int valor;
char letra;
struct sNo *esq;
struct sNo *dir;
};
typedef struct sNo sNo;
Then it creates an array of structs ('No'):
sNo *No;
No = calloc(qtd_no, sizeof(sNo));
It reads a string from the keyboard placing in this array the letter and the ammount of times it appears. Like the representation below with the word 'abracadabra':
No: a/5 b/2 r/2 c/1 d/1
Now, to make a Huffman tree, it's needed that I create another array ('pNo'), with pointers to the original array:
int qtd_pno = qtd_no;
sNo **pNo;
pNo = calloc(qtd_pno, sizeof(sNo*));
for (i = 0; i < qtd_pno; i++){
pNo[i] = &No[i];
}
The two arrays appear like that:
No: a/5 b/2 r/2 c/1 d/1
pNo: a/5 b/2 r/2 c/1 d/1
After that it can sort the array of pointers like below without changing the original one:
No: a/5 b/2 r/2 c/1 d/1
pNo: c/1 d/1 r/2 b/2 a/5
But when it tries to increase the size of the 'No' array...
qtd_no++;
No = realloc(No,(sizeof(sNo) * qtd_no));
... this is what happens with the arrays:
No: a/5 b/2 r/2 c/1 d/1 /0
pNo: c/1 d/1 r/2 b/2 /0
or something like that:
No: a/5 b/2 r/2 c/1 d/1 /0
pNo: c/1 d/1 r/2 b/2 �/1288268632
Note that I'm not changing anything on the 'pNo' array, but somehow the value pointed is. I think it could be some specific characteristic of dynamic memory allocation, but I'm not sure.
