I am using ubuntu. I have written a program to calculate prime factors. it works perfectly fine till entered number is less than 9989 (or so ) but when one enters a number higher than that, for example 15000, it does not work. Can anyone guide me whats the problem ? although new codes are welcome, but i want to know problem with my code. thanks in Advance
Hi all,
I have a HP-UX Server with 4 gigabytes of physical RAM. When I use the 'Glance' utility to see what my memory utilization is, my memory usage shows up maxed out at 99%. I shut off all the known processes that I'm running on that box and the memory utilization is still at 78% (with Swap... (3 Replies)
Hi,
I am trying to process line by line of a file. But I should not be allocating static allocation for reading the contents of the file. The memory should be dynamically allocated. The confusion here is how do I determine the size of each line, put it into a buffer with the memory allocated... (11 Replies)
I have a program that will fetch some particular lines and store it in a buffer for further operations.The code which is given below works but with some errors.I couldn't trace out the error.Can anybody help on this plz??

I have a scenario like the client has to search for the active server.There will be many servers.But not all server are active.And at a time not more than one server will be active.
The client will be in active state always i.e, it should always search for an active server until it gets one.I... (1 Reply)
Hi everyone,
I'm not new to C programming, but I'm having question regarding the memory allocation of a pointer variable which, for instance, will be declared in main(), but its memory will be allocated in subroutine.
To clearify my question, I provide a small working example:

Hi Experts
I need some help in static memory allocation in C. I have a program in which I declared 2 variables, one char array and one integer. I was little surprised to see the addresses of the variables.
First:
int x;
char a;
printf("%u %u\n', &x, a);
I got the addresses displayed... (2 Replies)
When we dynamically allocate the memory say 100 integers say
int *x = new int(1000);
then does entire chunk of memory gets allocated at once after the completion of the statement?
I mean will the the concept of page fault come into picture over here? (3 Replies)
hi
in the following code, how the memory is allocated for a1 which holds the values of a2 after cpy function call.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
void cpy(char* d, const char* s){
while(*d++=*s++);
}
main(){
char* a1;
char* a2="done";
cpy(a1,a2);

Hello,
I am new to C++ programming, so I'm still getting a feel for things. I recently wrote a simple C++ program (to be used as a ROOT Macro) to conduct a statistical analysis of a varied version of the Monty Hall problem (code below). Basically, the programs runs a few simple calculations to... (7 Replies)

bn_generate_prime
BN_generate_prime(3) OpenSSL BN_generate_prime(3)NAME
BN_generate_prime, BN_is_prime, BN_is_prime_fasttest - generate primes and test for primality
SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/bn.h>
BIGNUM *BN_generate_prime(BIGNUM *ret, int num, int safe, BIGNUM *add,
BIGNUM *rem, void (*callback)(int, int, void *), void *cb_arg);
int BN_is_prime(const BIGNUM *a, int checks, void (*callback)(int, int,
void *), BN_CTX *ctx, void *cb_arg);
int BN_is_prime_fasttest(const BIGNUM *a, int checks,
void (*callback)(int, int, void *), BN_CTX *ctx, void *cb_arg,
int do_trial_division);
DESCRIPTION
BN_generate_prime() generates a pseudo-random prime number of num bits. If ret is not NULL, it will be used to store the number.
If callback is not NULL, it is called as follows:
o callback(0, i, cb_arg) is called after generating the i-th potential prime number.
o While the number is being tested for primality, callback(1, j, cb_arg) is called as described below.
o When a prime has been found, callback(2, i, cb_arg) is called.
The prime may have to fulfill additional requirements for use in Diffie-Hellman key exchange:
If add is not NULL, the prime will fulfill the condition p % add == rem (p % add == 1 if rem == NULL) in order to suit a given generator.
If safe is true, it will be a safe prime (i.e. a prime p so that (p-1)/2 is also prime).
The PRNG must be seeded prior to calling BN_generate_prime(). The prime number generation has a negligible error probability.
BN_is_prime() and BN_is_prime_fasttest() test if the number a is prime. The following tests are performed until one of them shows that a
is composite; if a passes all these tests, it is considered prime.
BN_is_prime_fasttest(), when called with do_trial_division == 1, first attempts trial division by a number of small primes; if no divisors
are found by this test and callback is not NULL, callback(1, -1, cb_arg) is called. If do_trial_division == 0, this test is skipped.
Both BN_is_prime() and BN_is_prime_fasttest() perform a Miller-Rabin probabilistic primality test with checks iterations. If checks ==
BN_prime_checks, a number of iterations is used that yields a false positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
If callback is not NULL, callback(1, j, cb_arg) is called after the j-th iteration (j = 0, 1, ...). ctx is a pre-allocated BN_CTX (to save
the overhead of allocating and freeing the structure in a loop), or NULL.
RETURN VALUES
BN_generate_prime() returns the prime number on success, NULL otherwise.
BN_is_prime() returns 0 if the number is composite, 1 if it is prime with an error probability of less than 0.25^checks, and -1 on error.
The error codes can be obtained by ERR_get_error(3).
