前言：教授制定的指导方针，我必须使用数组，而不是其他一些数据结构。他的伪代码（不是很简洁）我们应该遵循的方法：
name and grade are read into a temporary location
loop from the end of the filled part of the array down to beginning {
if (new last name < current last name) {
copy current name and grade down
}
else if (new/current last names are equal and new first name < current first name) {
copy/assign current name and grade down
}
else {
found right place, break out of loop
}
}
now that you've made room, insert (copy) new name into correct sorted position
我看到我可能通过尝试读取数组位置 [-1] 来打破数组界限，但我想不出一种方法来避免这种情况，因为我从我拥有的项目数量倒数并且必须比较它们.
我正在从文本文件中读取行并将每行的片段存储到一个结构中。然后我使用插入排序算法按字母顺序存储结构。但是，我的数组似乎没有填充前几行，而新行只是覆盖了前几行......好像我的一个比较测试失败了，因为我的复制位置似乎从未改变，尽管这可能是因为初始数组填充以某种方式失败。我觉得很愚蠢，我一定错过了一些简单的东西......而且我的 DisplayList 模块显然从来没有得到一个填充了任何东西的数组。我是否以不正确的方式更改数组？
这是有问题的模块：
bool sortInput(ifstream &infile, StudentType students[], int size)
{
StudentType temp;
int copyToHere;
if(size == 0)
{
infile >> temp.last >> temp.first >> temp.grade;
strcpy(students[0].last, temp.last);
strcpy(students[0].first, temp.first);
students[0].grade = temp.grade;
size++;
}
while(infile)
{
infile >> temp.last >> temp.first >> temp.grade;
//cout << "TEST" << temp.last << temp.first << temp.grade << endl;
for(int i = size; i > 0; i--)
{
if(strcmp(temp.last, students[i-1].last) < 0)
{
students[i] = students[i-1];
students[i-1] = temp;
}
else if(strcmp(temp.last, students[i].last) == 0 && strcmp(temp.first, students[i].first) < 0)
{
students[i] = students[i-1];
}
else
{
break;
}
copyToHere = i;
}
cout << "Size = " << size << " and copy position = " << copyToHere << endl;
students[copyToHere] = temp;
size++;
//test to see if array is populated properly
for(int i = 0; i < size; i++)
{
cout << "Name is " << students[i].first << " " << students[i].last << " and grade is " << students[i].grade << endl;
}
cout << "DONE" << endl;
} //end while loop
return true;
}
