char*和char []之间的区别

AAL*_*ALC 3 c arrays string pointers char

我已经阅读了很多关于它的线索和问题并阅读了很多答案但是仍然难以理解差异以及何时应该使用什么?

我认为你应该在需要存储数据时使用char*而你不知道它的大小,因为它是动态的.另外我不确定我是对的,但是如果你宣布一个char*并且给它分配一个像这样的文字文本,我会理解我的理解:char*ch ="hi"; 它是一个常量,你无法改变,如果你试图改变它,你只需将ch指向另一个分配的内存空间保存新字符串?如果这样写:char ch = malloc(20); 然后你可以改变价值,如果你这样做:char ch [] ="hi"; char pch = ch; 您可以更改值,因为您指向数组并且数组指向ch [0]?

所有写的都是粗体是我从阅读中理解的,虽然我可能对我刚才说的大部分内容都是错的,这就是为什么我需要一个非常好的和简单的解释,所以我可以一劳永逸地理解差异,当我应该用什么.

#include <stdio.h>

main()
{
    char ch[] = "Hello";
    char *p1 = ch;
    char *p2 = p1;
    char *p3 = *p1;
    printf("ch : %s\n", ch);
    printf("p1 address [%d] value is %s\n", p1, *p1);
    printf("p2 address [%d] value is %s\n", p2, *p2);
    printf("p3 address [%d] value is %s\n", p3, *p3);
    return 0;

最直截了当的答案是:

这里的区别在于

char *s = "Hello world";

将Hello世界放在内存的只读部分并制作sa指针,使得对此内存的任何写入操作都是非法的.做的时候:

char s[] = "Hello world";

将文字字符串放在只读内存中,并将字符串复制到堆栈上新分配的内存中.从而制作

s[0] = 'J';

法律.

更长的解释包括存储内存的段数,以及分配的内存量:

Example:                       Allocation Type:     Read/Write:    Storage Location:   Memory Used (Bytes):
===========================================================================================================
const char* str = "Stack";     Static               Read-only      Code segment        6 (5 chars plus '\0')
char* str = "Stack";           Static               Read-only      Code segment        6 (5 chars plus '\0')
char* str = malloc(...);       Dynamic              Read-write     Heap                Amount passed to malloc
char str[] = "Stack";          Static               Read-write     Stack               6 (5 chars plus '\0')
char strGlobal[10] = "Global"; Static               Read-write     Data Segment (R/W)  10

为了解决问题中的编辑和随之发布的评论,我在您的解决方案中添加了注释:

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
   char ch[] = "Hello"; /* OK; Creating an array of 6 bytes to store
                         * 'H', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o', '\0'
                         */
   char *p1 = ch;       /* OK; Creating a pointer that points to the
                         * "Hello" string.
                         */
   char *p2 = p1;       /* OK; Creating a second pointer that also
                         * points to the "Hello" string.
                         */
   char *p3 = *p1;      /* BAD; You are assigning an actual character
                         * (*p1) to a pointer-to-char variable (p3);

                         * p3 = *p1; //BAD
                         */
   printf("ch : %s\n", ch);   /* OK */

所以,三大错误.

  1. 您正在charpointer-to-char变量赋值.您的编译器应该警告您这一点.(char *p3 = *p1).
  2. 根据您的编译器,您可能必须使用指针%p格式说明符来打印地址而不是%d(整数)格式说明符.
  3. 您正在使用%s带有char数据类型的字符串说明符(即:printf("%s", 'c')错误).如果要打印单个字符,则使用%c格式说明符,匹配参数应为字符(即:'c',char b等).如果要打印整个字符串,则使用%s格式说明符,参数是指向char指针.

例子


#include <stdio.h>

int main(void) {
   char c = 'H';                    // A character
   char* pC = &c;                   // A pointer to a single character; IS NOT A STRING
   char cArray[] = { 'H', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o' };   // An array of characters; IS NOT A STRING
   char cString[] = { 'H', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o', '\0' };   // An array of characters with a trailing NULL charcter; THIS IS A C-STYLE STRING
   // You could also replace the '\0' with 0 or NULL, ie:
   //char cString[] = { 'H', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o', (char)0 };
   //char cString[] = { 'H', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o', NULL };
   const char* myString = "Hello world!"; // A C-style string; the '\0' is added automatically for you

   printf("%s\n", myString);        // OK; Prints a string stored in a variable
   printf("%s\n", "Ducks rock!");   // OK; Prints a string LITERAL; Notice the use of DOUBLE quotes, " "
   printf("%s\n", cString);         // OK; Prints a string stored in a variable

   printf("%c\n", c);               // OK; Prints a character
   printf("%c\n", *pC);             // OK; Prints a character stored in the location that pC points to
   printf("%c\n", 'J');             // OK; Prints a character LITERAL; Notice the use of SINGLE quotes, ' '

   /* The following are wrong, and your compiler should be spitting out warnings or even not allowing the
    * code to compile. They will almost certainly cause a segmentation fault. Uncomment them if you
    * want to see for yourself by removing the "#if 0" and "#endif" statements.

   printf("%s\n", c);               // WRONG; Is attempting to print a character as a string, similar
                                    // to what you are doing.
   printf("%s\n", *pC);             // WRONG; Is attempting to print a character as a string. This is
