I don't know how this C program I'm meant to compile works exactly. I'm compiling it on a MacBook so maybe that explains the unusual errors? Anyway the compiled program doesn't seem to be working correctly. When compiled, I get these:
ers.c: In function ‘evolve’: ers.c:205: warning: unknown conversion type character 0xa in format ers.c: In function ‘print_rule’: ers.c:304: warning: unknown conversion type character 0xa in format ers.c: In function ‘test_evaluate’: ers.c:380: warning: unknown conversion type character 0xa in format
Which refer to these lines of code:
if(i%100==0)printf("best on training set at iteration %d: %g\%\n", i,100.0* population[bestinpop].acc);
printf("ACCURACY on training set %g\%\n\n", 100.0* r->acc);
printf("TEST ACCURACY %g\%\n", 100.0* r->acc);
I suspect it to be something to do with that %g type formatting.
Can anyone see what is being done wrong?
The 0xa in ASCII encoding is the Line Feed character \n, so your errors are indeed coming from the "%\n" constructs
I assume that the original developer meant "%%" and not "\%" (to display '%' characters). But I don't believe that this program ever compiled on any platform.
BTW : %g is an alternative formatting character for double (output is same as %f or %e, depending on the double value).
