C++数组分配分段错误11新手

我正在通过 Robert Sedgewick 的 C++ 算法学习 C++.现在,我正在研究 Eratosthenes 筛,用户指定了最大素数的上限.当我以最大 46349 运行代码时,它会运行并打印出最多 46349 的所有素数,但是当我以最大 46350 运行代码时,会发生分段错误.谁能帮忙解释一下原因?

I am learning C++ from Algorithms in C++ by Robert Sedgewick. Right now I am working on the Sieve of Eratosthenes with a user specified upper bound on the largest prime. When I run the code with max 46349, it runs and prints out all primes up to 46349, however when I run the code with max 46350, a Segmentation fault occurs. Can someone help to explain why?

./sieve.exe 46349
 2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 31 ...

./sieve.exe 46350
 Segmentation fault: 11

代码:

#include<iostream>

using namespace std;

static const int N = 1000;

int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
    int i, M;

    //parse argument as integer
    if( argv[1] ) {
        M = atoi(argv[1]);
    }

    if( not M ) {
        M = N;
    }

    //allocate memory to the array
    int *a = new int[M];

    //are we out of memory?
    if( a == 0 ) {
        cout << "Out of memory" << endl;
        return 0;
    }

    // set every number to be prime
    for( i = 2; i < M; i++) {
        a[i] = 1;
    }

    for( i = 2; i < M; i++ ) {
        //if i is prime
        if( a[i] ) {
            //mark its multiples as non-prime
            for( int j = i; j * i < M; j++ ) {
                a[i * j] = 0;
            }
        }
    }

    for( i = 2; i < M; i++ ) {
        if( a[i] ) {
            cout << " " << i;
        }    
    }
    cout << endl;

    return 0;
}

推荐答案

你这里有整数溢出:

        for( int j = i; j * i < M; j++ ) {
            a[i * j] = 0;
        }

46349 * 46349 不适合 int.

在我的机器上,将 j 的类型更改为 long 可以为更大的输入运行程序:

On my machine, changing the type of j to long makes it possible to run the program for larger inputs:

    for( long j = i; j * i < M; j++ ) {

根据您的编译器和架构,您可能必须使用 long long 才能获得相同的效果.

Depending on your compiler and architecture, you may have to use long long to get the same effect.
