Greetings,
I am looking for some example 'C' code that will allow me to pass 12 numeric variables from an SQLRPGLE program to a 'C' program that will calculate the geometric mean for them and return the value to the SQLRPGLE program.
I found an example where an RPG program will pass two character fields to a 'C' program which will concatenate and return them, however I know nothing of 'C', its syntax, or setting it up with an 'int' or 'void' to get my example to do what I want.
Currently, this is the 'C' code example I am working with:
#include <stdio.h> /* Main program. */ int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { /* Display parameters sent to the program. */ printf("Incoming parameter 1 = %s\n", argv[1]); printf("Incoming parameter 2 = %s\n", argv[2]); /* Concatenate the two incoming parameters into the third parameter. */ strcpy(argv[3],argv[1]); strcat(argv[3],argv[2]); /* End of program. Returning with concatenation of parameters 1 and 2 into parameter 3. */ return; }
I have found a 'C' program example that calculates the geometric mean I am looking for, but it is set up as follows:
#include<stdio.h> #include<math.h> int main(void) { // ((X1)(X2)(X3)........(XN))1/N double x1=2,x2=4,x3=6,x4=7,x5=6; double x,N=5; x=(x1*x2*x3*x4*x5); x=pow(x,(1/N)); printf("Geometric Mean for Xn: %lf",x); return 0; }
I believe I would need to set up x1=argv[1], x2=argv[2] and so on, but I do not believe I am setting up the variables correctly to pass back what I am looking for.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Regards, Stephen Mooney
