THANK YOU ALL!!! - what errors should I check for and handle?
Thank you all for your kind, patient and educative responses when I obnoxiously post amateur questions! 💙 While I cannot make any promises because of how my brain works, I am almost ready to continue reading *The C Programming Language, 2nd Edition”. I just want to experiment a little bit with error handling, specifially how to handle wrong input (char VS. int, etc.) and also to learn to indentify code that runs the risk of overflow/underflow.
Question: what errors do you recommend checking for and handling?
Meanwhile, thank you all! 🥰

Kære kammerater,
Gå foran med et eksempel! Vi mangler et brunchhold (hver fjerde søndag). Brunchen må godt være vegansk og I får al den hjælp, I behøver for at komme i gang.
Glæder os til at høre fra jer!
