统计计算器输出无限循环

我的程序旨在从用户那里获取3-30个值,并让它运行一些函数来计算平均值,中位数和标准差。 但是,一旦我输入一组测试用例值,我的输出就会导致我认为无限循环的混乱。

我完全迷失了我的错误。我非常感谢任何帮助。

#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip> // for Setprecision
#include <cmath> // for pow and sqrt

using namespace std;

int main()
{
    // Declare Local Variables
    const int SIZE=30.0;
    double array[SIZE];
    int count = 0;
}
//Module: inputArrayValues
//Description: Ask the user to input values between 3 and 30 elements for the array to hold. Also validates that the user inputs a total of values between 3 and 30.
void inputArrayValues (double array[], int SIZE, int &count)
{
    double number = 0;
    const double SENTINEL = -1.0;
    // Basic information about what the user can input. Does not repeat.
    cout << "Please enter values one at a time." <<endl;
    cout << "Up to a maximum of 30 values and a minimum of 3 values." << endl;
    cout << "Only positive values are accepted or the program will not work." << endl;
    cout << "With the exception, please enter the value -1.0 to stop entering values." << endl;

    // While Loop
    // Variable count is counting how many values the user inputs for later calculation
    for (int i = 0; i < SIZE; i++)
    {
        while (number!= SENTINEL)
        {
            cout << "Please enter a value or enter -1.0 to stop entering values" << endl;
            cin >> number;
            array[i] = number;
            if (number != SENTINEL)
            {
                count++;
            }

        }
    }

    if (count < 3 || count > SIZE)
    {
        cout << "Invalid total number of values." << endl;
        cout << "The total number of values must between 3 and 30 values." <<endl;
        cout << "This program will now close..." << endl;
        cout << "Thank you for using this program." << endl;
    }
}

//Function: comupteAverage
//Description: Computes the average of the given inputs.
double computeAverage (double array[], int count)
{
    double sum = 0.0;
    double resultA;
    for (int i =0; i < count; i++)
    {
        sum = sum + array[i];
    }
    resultA = sum / count;
    return resultA;
}
//Function: computeMedian
//Description: Computes the Median of the given inputs.
double computeMedian (double array[], int count)
{
    double resultM;
    if ((count % 2) == 0)
    {
        resultM = (array[count/2] + (array[count/2] -1.0) /2.0);
    }
    else
        resultM = array[count/2];
    return resultM;
}
//Function: computeSTD
//Description: Computes the Standard Deviation of the given inputs.
double computeSTD (double array[], int count, double average)
{
    double temp;
    double sum = 0;
    double resultV;
    for(int i = 0; i < count; i++)
    {
        temp = pow((array[i] - average), 2);
        sum = sum + temp;
    }
    //Account for Sample Standard Deviation N-1
    resultV = sqrt(sum/(count -1));
    return resultV;
}

我使用的测试用例编号。

73.3
83.4
58
11.9
25.1
69.9
45.7
95.0
44.4
-1.0 // To stop entering values

Thank you in advance for your time and advice!

I performed a shorter test case with only 5 values.

Please enter a value or enter -1.0 to stop entering values
4

Please enter a value or enter -1.0 to stop entering values
3

Please enter a value or enter -1.0 to stop entering values
2

Please enter a value or enter -1.0 to stop entering values
-1.0

-1.0 -92559631349317830000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000.0 -92559631

但是,我仍然不清楚导致程序以这种方式运行的原因。

1 个答案:

答案 0 :(得分:0)

<强>第一

for (int i = 0; i < SIZE; i++)
{
    while (number!= SENTINEL)
    {
        cout << "Please enter a value or enter -1.0 to stop entering values" << endl;
        cin >> number;
        array[i] = number;       // <-----
        if (number != SENTINEL)
        {
            count++;
        }

    }
}

您正在填充array 第一个元素,因为您没有增加i。正确的代码应该是这样的:

count = 0;
do
{
    cout << "Please enter a value or enter -1.0 to stop entering values" << endl;
    cin >> number;
    if ( number != SENTINEL )
    {
        array[ count ] = number;
        count++;
    }
}
while ( number != SENTINEL && count < SIZE );

第二:代码在哪里,调用你的函数???

第三次:您的computeAveragecomputeSTD看起来不错,但您到底在computeMedian做了什么???

<强>更新: 正确的中位数计算应该是这样的:

double computeMedian (double array[], int count)
{
    double resultM;
    double * sorted_array = new double[ count ];
    for ( int i = 0; i < count; i++ )
    {
        sorted_array[ i ] = array[ i ];
    }
    std::sort( sorted_array, sorted_array + count );
    if ((count % 2) == 0)
    {
        //resultM = (sorted_array[count/2] + (sorted_array[count/2] -1.0) /2.0); // <-- compare this line
        resultM = ( sorted_array[count/2] + sorted_array[count/2 - 1] ) / 2.0;  // <-- and this
    }
    else
        resultM = sorted_array[count/2];
    delete []sorted_array;
    return resultM;
}

最后:我强烈建议您使用std::vector代替&#34; raw&#34;阵列。
