函数指针

P.S. This sourecode from wiki.
函数指针直接调用

/* 例一：函数指针直接调用 */

# ifndef __cplusplus
    # include <stdio.h>
# else
    # include <cstdio>
# endif

int max(int x, int y)
{
    return x > y ? x : y;
}

int main(void)
{
    /* p 是函数指针 */
    int (* p)(int, int) = & max; // &可以省略
    int a, b, c, d;

    printf("please input 3 numbers:");
    scanf("%d %d %d", & a, & b, & c);

    /* 与直接调用函数等价，d = max(max(a, b), c) */
    d = p(p(a, b), c); 

    printf("the maxumum number is: %d\n", d);

    return 0;
}

函数指针作为参数

/* 例二：函数指针作为参数 */

struct object
{
    int data;
};

int object_compare(struct object * a,struct object * z)
{
    return a->data < z->data ? 1 : 0;
}

struct object *maximum(struct object * begin,struct object * end,int (* compare)(struct object *, struct object *))
{
    struct object * result = begin;
    while(begin != end)
    {
        if(compare(result, begin))
        {
            result = begin;
        }
        ++ begin;
    }
    return result;
}

int main(void)
{
    struct object data[8] = {{0}, {1}, {2}, {3}, {4}, {5}, {6}, {7}};
    struct object * max;
    max = maximum(data + 0, data + 8, & object_compare);
    return 0;
}
