how do you convert this into c

[ivatanako]

this is a java code, i need to convert it into C.

private void addFrame (int toAdd) {
int[ ] frameScores = new int[0];
totalScore = totalScore + toAdd;
if (frameScores.length < lastFrameNumber) {
int [ ] temp = new int [frameScores.length+1];
for (int k=0; k<frameScores.length; k++) {
temp[k] = frameScores[k];
}
temp[frameScores.length] = totalScore;
frameScores = temp;
}
}

im having problem with

frameScores = temp

it is throwing a incompatible types errors

here is my C code

void addFrame(int toAdd)
	{
         totalScore = totalScore + toAdd;
         if (sizeof(frameScores) < lastFrameNumber) {
            int temp[sizeof(frameScores)+1];
            for (int k=0; k<sizeof(frameScores); k++) 
            {
                temp[k] = frameScores[k];
            }
            temp[sizeof(frameScores)] = totalScore;
            frameScores = temp;
            }     
    }

Java is derived from C. You can use dynamic memory allocation.

How is frameScores declared?

How is frameScores declared?

it is declared as an integer array. Same as temp.

[Ancient Dragon]

>>int temp[sizeof(frameScores)+1];
That line is wrong. If frameScores is declared as int frameScores[5] then the above declaration will create an array of 5*sizeof(int) = 20+1 elements. What you want is 6 elements, so the line should be int temp[sizeof((frameScores)/sizeof(frameScores[0]))+1];

Well that will correct that line, but it still will not correct the line frameScores = temp; because the two arrays are not the same size.

thank you. any suggestion on how i could correct it?

If you are attempting to add a new element to frameScores array, such as increase its size from 5 to 6 elements, then make frameScores a pointer and reallocate its size.

int* frameScores= {0};
int frameSize = 0; // size of frameScores
int totalScore = 0;
int lastFrameNumber = 0;

void addFrame(int toAdd)
{
         totalScore = totalScore + toAdd;
         if (frameSize < lastFrameNumber) 
         {
            frameScores = (int *)realloc(frameScores,(frameSize+1) * sizeof(int));
            frameScores[frameSize] = totalScore;
            ++frameSize;
         }     
}

int main()
{
}

this is what i was trying to convert, the last page where the java code is http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~clancy/web/case.studies/bowling.pdf

the framescore was declared as private with and it size is int[0]. I am new to java, and so far i was able to convert probably around 85% of the code, i was stuck with this part wherein the array from temp is being transfered into framescores.

and if you might find it interesting, here's my C code

const int SPARE_LAST_BALL =5;
