Question

i have following code

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int sorter( const void *first_arg,const void* second_arg){
    int first=*(int *) first;
    int second =*(int*) second;
     if (first<second){
          return -1;
             }

     else if ( first==second){

          return 0;
             }
     else{

          return 1;
     }


}
int main(){
    int arr[10];
     int i;
     /*
     fill the array
     */
     int t=sizeof(arr)/sizeof(arr[0]);
      for (i=0;i<t;i++){
          arr[i]=t-i;
}
       qsort(arr,t,sizeof(int),sorter);
        for (int i=0;i<t;i++){
             printf("%d\n",arr[i]);


        }


}

but here is runtime errors
according to debuging i got following

first   -858993460  int


first_arg   0x0015f738  const void *



second  -858993460  int


    second_arg  0x0015f74c  const void *

Answer 1

int sorter( const void *first_arg,const void* second_arg){
    int first=*(int *) first_arg;
    int second =*(int*) second_arg;
     if (first<second){
          return -1;
             }

*first or *second is a nonsensical typo – you need to use the args.
