How the fuck do you write a palindrome generator function in

were not going to do your homework, anon

>>58798168
I bet this is a homework assignment.
However, what is a palindrome generator?
Something that makes abcba from abc?

Carefully

Not /g/.
Go to the homework board.... kid.

>>58798234
that wasnt homework at all anon!

>>58798210
i can't figure how how the fuck do it. This is my code so far:

void test(char *s){

    char palindrome[sizeof(s)*2];

    for(int i = 0; i < sizeof(s)*2; i++){

        if(i < sizeof(s)){
            palindrome[i] = s[i];

        }else{
            palindrome[i] = s[palindrome-i];
        }

    }

}

>>58798168
C is a palindrome, so you answered you're own question.

>>58798302
Anon, that sizeof(s) will return 4 (or 8 on x64) since it's the size of the pointer.

>>58798302
1. figure out the input string size
2. depending on odd or even, allocate a char* with twice or one less than twice the size; take the string terminator into account
3. copy the string
4. reverse-copy the string into the remaining fields, leaving out the first char if odd
5. set the null terminator

>>58798302
the variable palindrome isn't an integer. Why are you trying to use it as an index to s in the else statement?

>>58798384
>set the null terminator
?

>>58798357
char is guaranteed to be 1 anyhow

>>58798849
which is completely irrelevant

>>58798845
set the \0 thing at the actual end of the string to tell C the string ends there

>>58798168

#include<stdio.h>
main(int argc, char** argv){
       int i;
       for(i = 0;i<(sizeof(argv[1])-1);++i){
                  putchar(argv[1][i]);
        }
        for(i = (sizeof(argv[1]) -2);i>=0;--i){
                   putchar(argv[1][i]);
        }
}

>Can anyone optimize this to use only one loop, for while or anything. Another counter is accepted since one less loop >> one more counter.

>>58800480

if(argc!=2)
return;

Sry forgot to write this line.

>>58800480
Its wrong.

>>58800480

for(i = 0; i<strlen(argv[1]);++i)
.
.
for(i =  strlen(argv[1]);i>=0;--i)

Corrected

We have a thread going called /sqt/ for stupid questions, freshman

>>58798302
Use the Heap, nigger. Tomorrow when I input a 2mb string, what will you do?

>>58798849
char is. char* isn't.

>>58798168
You're a dumb fuck if you haven't figured out which site your teach is pulling these problems from.

>>58798168
just make two slicing functions, one for even numbers and one for odd, and a comparison you reetard

>>58798168
> Palindrome generator
Well, you get the input and you print it and then you print the reverse...
