arrays - char数组C末尾的奇怪字符

问题描述

我试图编写Weasel Program的实现。我编译了三个版本，所有版本完全相同，名称分别为“weasel.exe”、“weasel2.exe”和“weasel3.exe”。“weasel.exe”产生预期的输出，

Gen 0: YPSZNCWPSDUMLYKRIKNSEOJCERIL

Gen 5441: METHINKP ITMIS LIKE A WEASEL
Gen 6090: METHINKS ITMIS LIKE A WEASEL
Gen 7712: METHINKS IT IS LIKE A WEASEL

但是“weasel2.exe”会产生这个

Gen 896:  CB FNEOJWT WAVACDESTKWELIEF/c PnW~lcÏ

Gen 1087:  CP FNEOJWT WAVLCDESTKWELSEF/c PnW~lcÏ

数组末尾还有其他不需要的字符。对于某些世代来说，这包括看起来像我的 PATH 环境变量的部分内容。根据我在其他 SO 问题上阅读的内容，这是因为数组末尾没有“\0”字符，但是当我添加

[Line 75] offspring[i][28] = '\0';

对于后代分配循环，程序因内存访问冲突而崩溃。甚至允许写入的最低索引是 8。“weasel2.exe”永远运行，虽然有些字符确实与 weasel 字符串匹配，但其他字符会继续无限变化，即使它们确实设法“进化”到右边特点。“weasel3.exe”每次都会因内存访问冲突而崩溃。编译时我收到以下警告：

weasel2.c:85：警告：来自不兼容指针类型的赋值
weasel2.c:89：警告：来自不兼容指针类型的赋值

但据我所知，这不是问题的原因（但我也可能错了）。

造成这种情况的原因是什么，为什么行为只在编译之间有所不同，而不是每个单独程序的测试？

        for (unsigned int c = 0; c < currentLen; c++) {
            if (randomNumber(probability) < 1) {
                offspring[i][c] = letters[randomNumber(27)];
            }
            else {

解决方案

第一步，generateOffspring按如下方式更改循环：

for (unsigned int c = 0; c < currentLen - 1; c++) {
    if (randomNumber(probability) < 1) {
        offspring[i][c] = letters[randomNumber(27)];
    }
    else {
        offspring[i][c] = currentGen[c];
    }
}
offspring[i][currentLen - 1] = 0; // terminate offspring[i]

请记住，要存储长度为 N 个字符的字符串，您需要一个长度至少为 N+1 个元素的数组来存储 0 终止符。

正如 Antti Haapala 指出的那样，你有同样的问题currentGen，所以你需要将那个循环更改为

for (unsigned int i = 0; i < 28; i++) {
    currentGen[i] = letters[randomNumber(27)];
}
currentGen[28] = 0;
