问题


Trying to build the source code below from an example given in a textbook. I'm using visual studio 2008.

The compiler doesn't seem to know what to do with sieve:

code:

//Fig. 21.40: fig21_40.cpp
//Using a bitset to demonstrate the Sieve of Eratosthenses

#include <iostream>

using std::cin;
using std::cout;
using std::endl;

#include <iomanip>

using std::setw;

#include <bitset>   //bitset class definition
#include <cmath>    //sqrt prototype

int main()
{
const int size=1024;
int value;
std::bitset<size> sieve;

sieve.flip();

//perform Sieve of Eratosthenses
int finalBit = sqrt( sieve.size() ) + 1;

for(int i=2; i<finalBit; ++i)
    if(sieve.test(i))
        for(int j=2*i; j<size; j+=i)
            sieve.reset(j);

cout << "The prime numbers in the range 2 to 1023 are:\n";

//display prime numbers in range 2-1023
for(int k=2, counter=0; k<size; ++k)

    if(sieve.test(k)){
        cout <<setw(5)<<k;
        if(++counter % 12 ==0)
            cout << '\n';
    }//end outer if

cout << endl;

//get value from user to determine whether value is prime
cout << "\nEnter a value from 1 to 1023(-1 to end): ";
cin>>value;

while(value != -1){
    if(sieve[value])
        cout << value << " is a prime number\n";
    else
        cout << value << " is not a prime number\n";

    cout << "\nEnter a value from 2 to 1023 (-1 to end): ";
    cin >> value;
}//end while



return 0;
}

I think that is because in newer versions of C++, sqrt is overloaded (argument can be double, float or long double) and you pass in an int. Just cast the argument to double to make it clear:

int finalBit = sqrt( (double) (sieve.size()) ) + 1;



回答2:


The sqrt function has these overloads:

float       sqrt(float arg);
double      sqrt(double arg);
long double sqrt(long double arg);

Since sieve.size() returns size_t, the compiler cannot choose which conversion to take - 'float', double or long double.

Add a cast to fix this problem. Given the range of the size that you have, it does not really matter what type you are going to pick.

int finalBit = sqrt( (double)sieve.size() ) + 1;
//                   ^^^^^^^^
// float or long double would work as well.
