CHAR Array - stuffed with values - with more size than it holds

Hi All
I am simulating a problem in the production where i faced a situation.
Please find the following example program which i simulated.


#include<stdio.h>

#include<stdlib.h>

#include<string.h>



int main()

{



char str1[20];

char str2[20];

double t1=0.0;

double output_value=888.00;

double count=0.0;

memset(str1,0x00,20);

memset(str2,0x00,20);

char output_str[20];

char output_str1[20];

memset(output_str,0x00,20);

memset(output_str1,0x00,20);

for(int i=0;i<50;i++) (Purposely specifying as 50 and not 20 as per the variable)

{

count=count+1.0;

sprintf(output_str, "%12.2f", count); (When str1 is exhausted i.e after 20th byte it is taking the value from str2 mentioned below)

strcat(str1,output_str);

strcat(str1, " ");

printf("The string length of str1=%d\n",strlen(str1));



if (i != 0)

output_value= 1 + output_value;

sprintf(output_str1, "%12.2f", output_value);

strcat(str2, output_str1);

strcat(str2, " ");



printf("The str1 has the value =%s\n\n",str1);

printf("The str2 has the value =%s\n\n",str2);



}



printf("\n\n\n The output line 3=%s\n",str1);







}



Please let me know if str1 is stuffed more than what it can hold, should it take the values from str2 ? as arrays are stored by contiguous memory location.

dlasq2.f(3)							      LAPACK							       dlasq2.f(3)

NAME
dlasq2.f - SYNOPSIS
Functions/Subroutines subroutine dlasq2 (N, Z, INFO) DLASQ2 computes all the eigenvalues of the symmetric positive definite tridiagonal matrix associated with the qd Array Z to high relative accuracy. Used by sbdsqr and sstegr. Function/Subroutine Documentation subroutine dlasq2 (integerN, double precision, dimension( * )Z, integerINFO) DLASQ2 computes all the eigenvalues of the symmetric positive definite tridiagonal matrix associated with the qd Array Z to high relative accuracy. Used by sbdsqr and sstegr. Purpose: DLASQ2 computes all the eigenvalues of the symmetric positive definite tridiagonal matrix associated with the qd array Z to high relative accuracy are computed to high relative accuracy, in the absence of denormalization, underflow and overflow. To see the relation of Z to the tridiagonal matrix, let L be a unit lower bidiagonal matrix with subdiagonals Z(2,4,6,,..) and let U be an upper bidiagonal matrix with 1's above and diagonal Z(1,3,5,,..). The tridiagonal is L*U or, if you prefer, the symmetric tridiagonal to which it is similar. Note : DLASQ2 defines a logical variable, IEEE, which is true on machines which follow ieee-754 floating-point standard in their handling of infinities and NaNs, and false otherwise. This variable is passed to DLASQ3. Parameters: N N is INTEGER The number of rows and columns in the matrix. N >= 0. Z Z is DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension ( 4*N ) On entry Z holds the qd array. On exit, entries 1 to N hold the eigenvalues in decreasing order, Z( 2*N+1 ) holds the trace, and Z( 2*N+2 ) holds the sum of the eigenvalues. If N > 2, then Z( 2*N+3 ) holds the iteration count, Z( 2*N+4 ) holds NDIVS/NIN^2, and Z( 2*N+5 ) holds the percentage of shifts that failed. INFO INFO is INTEGER = 0: successful exit < 0: if the i-th argument is a scalar and had an illegal value, then INFO = -i, if the i-th argument is an array and the j-entry had an illegal value, then INFO = -(i*100+j) > 0: the algorithm failed = 1, a split was marked by a positive value in E = 2, current block of Z not diagonalized after 100*N iterations (in inner while loop). On exit Z holds a qd array with the same eigenvalues as the given Z. = 3, termination criterion of outer while loop not met (program created more than N unreduced blocks) Author: Univ. of Tennessee Univ. of California Berkeley Univ. of Colorado Denver NAG Ltd. Date: September 2012 Further Details: Local Variables: I0:N0 defines a current unreduced segment of Z. The shifts are accumulated in SIGMA. Iteration count is in ITER. Ping-pong is controlled by PP (alternates between 0 and 1). Definition at line 113 of file dlasq2.f. Author Generated automatically by Doxygen for LAPACK from the source code.
