Segmentation fauslt should occur in general case because each recursive call causes program stack overflow. Ever function call pushes return address into the stack along with other params. Even in every recursive call the function variables also gets allocated which can be a large overhead. So after limited number of function call the stack gets exhausted causing segmentation fault.
(Cygwin provides certain protection, that does not cause segmentation fault!)

C++ Language 1. Why would you prefer to use recursion? (Multiple answers or one answer) a When the problem to be solved is naturally recursive, a recursive algorithm provides a clear and simple solution. b Since stack memory is faster than heap memory, and recursion uses stack memory, it is preferable to use recursion. c If a language, like LISP, or a subset of a language, like C++ templates, provides recursion but does not provide looping, then use recursion. d...
Write the code to dynamically allocate ONE integer variable using calloc (contiguous allocation) or malloc (memory allocation) and have it pointed to by a pointer (of type int * ) named ptr_1. Use ptr_1 to assign the number 7 to that dynamically allocated integer, and in another line use printf to output the contents of that dynamically allocated integer variable. Write the code to dynamically allocate an integer array of length 5 using calloc or malloc and have it pointed...
Using C, create a data file with the first number being an integer. The value of that integer will be the number of further integers which follow it in the file. Write the code to read the first number into the integer variable how_many.Please help me with the file :((This comes from this question:Write the code to dynamically allocate ONE integer variable using calloc (contiguous allocation) or malloc (memory allocation) and have it pointed to by a pointer (of type int...
In C, Implement each of the functions to create a working stack 6 II-Implement each of the functions to create a working stack. 7 II -Do not change any of the function declarations I-(i.e. stack t* create stack) should not have additional arguments) II-You should not have any 'printf' statements in your stack functions 10 II(You may consider using these printf statements to debug, but they should be removed from your final version) 12 #ifndefMYSTACK_A 13 #define MYSTACKH 14 15...
help me answer the following questions please 1. Stack (LIFO) & its application 1. Stack overflow & underflow 2. Implementation: partially filled array & linked list 3. Applications: reverse string, backtracking Exercises: 1) Which of the following applications may use a stack? A. parentheses balancing program. B. Keeping track of local variables at run time. C. Syntax analyzer for a compiler. D. All of the above. 2) Consider the usual algorithm for determining whether a sequence of parentheses is balanced....
program in C - Starter code below //In this assignment, we practice call by reference. //Below description of call by reference is from the following link //https://www.tutorialspoint.com/cprogramming/c_function_call_by_reference.htm //The call by reference method of passing arguments to a function copies //the address of an argument into the formal parameter. Inside the function, //the address is used to access the actual argument used in the call. //It means the changes made to the parameter affect the passed argument. //We use an example...
Multiple Choice Multiple Choice Section 4.1 Pointers and Dynamic Memory Consider the following statements: int *p; int i; int k; i = 42; k = i; p = &i; After these statements, which of the following statements will change the value of i to 75? A. k = 75; B. *k = 75; C. p = 75; D. *p = 75; E. Two or more of the answers will change i to 75. Consider the following statements: int i =...
LC-3 Programming Help!! The Stack Protocol The following outline is the protocol for passing arguments to a function and returning values. Everything is stored on the runtime stack so that space is used only when the function is executing. As a result the actual address of arguments and locals may change from call to call. However, the layout of the stack frame (activation record) is constant. Thus, the offests from the frame pointer (FP) to the parameters/locals are constant. All...
Introduction: One of the most important uses of pointers is for dynamic allocation of memory. In C++ there are commands that let the user request a chunk of memory from the operating system, and use this memory to store data. There are also commands to return memory back to the O/S when the program is finished using the data. In this lab, we will explore some of the things that can go wrong when using dynamic memory and discuss how...
c/c++ Passing arrays as arguments to functions. The main() is given, write the function 'average' (Study the syntax of passing an array as a function parameter) The program prompts the user to first enter the number of tests given in a course, and then prompts him/her to enter the mark for each test. The marks are stored in an array. This takes place in the main() function. It then passes the array to a function named 'average' that calculates and...
