其中第31行这一句:
for (i= 0; i < lim-1 &&(c=getchar())!=EOF && c!='\n'; ++i)
为什么是i<lim-1呢?
我的理解是:
char line[1000]定义了字符串的最大长度是999,因为还有一个系统加的结束符'\0'。如果输入字符串字符数超过999个,系统会截取999个,并在第1000的位置上加一个'\0'。
从line[0]开始遍历, i<lim-1刚好遍历到'\0'(line[999])之前那个字符,也就是line[998]。
#include <stdio.h>
#define MAXLINE 1000 /* maximum input line length */
int getline(char line[], int maxline);
void copy(char to[], char from[]);
/* print the longest input line */
main()
{
int len; /* current line length */
int max; /* maximum length seen so far */
char line[MAXLINE]; /* current input line */
char longest[MAXLINE]; /* longest line saved here */
max = 0;
while ((len = getline(line, MAXLINE)) > 0)
if (len > max) {
max = len;
copy(longest, line);
}
if (max > 0) /* there was a line */
printf("%s", longest);
return 0;
}
/* getline: read a line into s, return length */
int getline(char s[],int lim)
{
int c, i;
for (i= 0; i < lim-1 &&(c=getchar())!=EOF && c!='\n'; ++i)
s[i] = c;
if (c == '\n') {
s[i] = c;
++i;
}
s[i] = '\0';
return i;
}
/* copy: copy 'from' into 'to'; assume to is big enough */
void copy(char to[], char from[])
{
int i;
i = 0;
while ((to[i] = from[i]) != '\0')
++i;
}
