Check if a value exists in an array in Cython
Try next:
(read comments and tests for details how it working)
#include <stdio.h>#include <assert.h>/*Return index an integer number begin from start an array,otherwise return -1. */int indexOf(int *array, int array_size, int number) { for (int i = 0; i < array_size; ++i) { if (array[i] == number) { return i; } } return -1;}// Tests for indexOf()void test_indexOf() { int array[10] = {12, 78, -43, 0, 21, 12, 20, -9, 1, -1}; assert(indexOf(array, 10, 12) == 0); assert(indexOf(array, 10, 0) == 3); assert(indexOf(array, 10, 2) == -1); assert(indexOf(array, 10, 43) == -1); assert(indexOf(array, 10, 11) == -1); assert(indexOf(array, 10, -1) == 9); assert(indexOf(array, 10, 1) == 8); assert(indexOf(array, 10, -2) == -1); assert(indexOf(array, 10, 3) == -1);}int main () { test_indexOf(); return 0;}
Notes:
Since the C has not support for reload functions, indexOf() will be work only with array type of integer.
The C has not support for determinate length of a pointer of an array. So, you need manually pass size of array.
