As you can see in Window’s NT status reference, error code 0xC00000FD means stack overflow (usually caused by infinite recursion). In your case, it seems that you simply allocate a far too large array on the stack (line 57, baby babies[50000];), which is an array of size 50000*20=1000000. The simplest solution will be a dynamic allocation
baby* babies = new baby[50000]; // Your code here delete[] babies;
A better solution would be to use std::vector which is a dynamic array that can grow and shrink. The simplest thing to do is to take a vector of size 50000, this way:
#include <vector> ... std::vector<baby> babies(50000);
However, this is a poor solution as your pre-allocate 50000 elements even though you probably need much much less, and a better solution would be to add an element on-demand, using .push_back(element) method, or in your case, allocate n elements to the vector (impossible in a stack-allocated array).
I added your code with some modifications of mine:
#include <vector>
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <algorithm>
using namespace std;
ifstream fin("input.txt");
struct baby
{
string gender;
string name;
int cnt = 0;
};
bool cmp(const baby& a, const baby& b)
{
if (a.cnt > b.cnt) {
return true;
}
return a.cnt == b.cnt && a.name < b.name;
}
bool are_equal(const baby& lhs, const baby& rhs)
{
return lhs.gender == rhs.gender && lhs.name == rhs.name;
}
int howmany(const std::vector<baby>& babies, int i)
{
int cnt = 0;
for (int j = 0; j < babies.size(); j++)
{
if (babies[i].name == babies[j].name && babies[i].gender == babies[j].gender)
{
cnt++;
}
}
return cnt;
}
void getData(std::vector<baby>& babies)
{
for (int i = 0; i < babies.size(); i++)
{
fin >> babies[i].gender >> babies[i].name;
}
}
int removeDuplicates(std::vector<baby>& babies)
{
int j = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < babies.size() - 1; i++)
{
if (babies[i].name != babies[i + 1].name) {
babies[j++] = babies[i];
}
}
babies[j++] = babies.back();
return j;
}
void remove_duplicates_improved(std::vector<baby>& babies)
{
babies.erase(babies.begin(), std::unique(babies.begin(), babies.end(), are_equal));
}
int main()
{
int n;
int top;
fin >> n >> top;
std::vector<baby> babies(n);
getData(babies);
for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
{
babies[i].cnt = howmany(babies, i);
}
sort(babies.begin(), babies.begin() + n, cmp);
remove_duplicates_improved(babies);
int cnt = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < babies.size(); i++)
{
if (cnt < top)
{
if (babies[i].gender == "F")
{
cout << babies[i].name << " ";
cnt++;
}
}
}
cout << endl;
cnt = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < babies.size(); i++)
{
if (cnt < top)
{
if (babies[i].gender == "M")
{
cout << babies[i].name << " ";
cnt++;
}
}
}
return 0;
}
Good luck
