Lookup Table
PostPosted: Wed Nov 30, 2005 2:29 pm     Reply with quote

12 combinations of 3 items from a group of six.

items: apple, pear, grape, plumb, orange, and tomato

combination 0: apple, pear, plumb
combination 1: apple, plumb, orange
..

each item has three different properties
apple = {20.1, 25.2, 30.3}
pear = {10.0, 12.5, 17.5}
..

I'm trying to write a function in C that will access one property of an item
given the combination number and item index. For example:
lookup(1,0,2) would return 30.3 or second combination, first item, third property.

I don't really know where to start

Use a three dimensional array.

3D Array
PostPosted: Wed Nov 30, 2005 4:13 pm     Reply with quote

2D (2x3)
Code:

  int grid[3][2] = { {10,20},{30,40},{50,60} };

  /* The table of grid looks like
   *    ---------
   *  0| 10 | 20 |
   *  1| 30 | 40 |
   *  2| 50 | 60 |
   *    ---------
   *      0    1
   *
   */


{ {x1y1,x2y1}, {x1y2,x2y2}, {x1y3,x2y3} }

3D (2x3x2)

Does z build out of the page?

{ {x1y1z1,x2y1z1}, {x1y2z1,x2y2z1}, {x1y3z1,x2y3z1},
{x1y1z2,x2y1z2}, {x1y2z2,x2y2z2}, {x1y3z2,x2y3z2} }

grid [1][0][1] = x1y2z2?
