Passing array as argument to a function

Passing array as argument to a function - 08/21/22 09:23

Hello guys,

I just want to know why I can't use an array as an argument in C-lite, I think it's not possible, can someone please tell me if it's supported or not? thanks in advance =)

this code compiles normally :

Code

void delete_from_array(int index_to_del){	
}

this code does not compile and returns "syntax error" :

Code

void delete_from_array(int index_to_del, float array_to_del_from[]){	
}

Many thanks

In Lite-C, you use a pointer instead. So this likely does what you want:

Code

void delete_from_array(int index_to_del, float* array_to_del_from){

    //examples:
    float foo = array_to_del_from[3];
    array_to_del_from[2] = 0;
}
