🥱 Ah, yet another book that dares to resurrect the fossilized language of C. What's next? A thrilling sequel on COBOL? 📚 Let's all gather to marvel at the revolutionary concept of "Installing a C Compiler" as if we're in 1985! 🤦‍♂️

The Book – The Little Book of C

Random thought: Some people and companies are against C because it's easy to shoot yourself in the foot, and then they praise "vibe" (sh*t) coding, go figure.

🚀 Behold! An opus of existential dread wrapped in a thin veneer of C language #angst, where the author heroically battles imaginary dragons of undefined behavior while attempting to reinvent the square wheel of systems compilers. 🤔 Spoiler: C compiles without warnings, and the universe remains unaltered.

Weird #Cprogramming issue I'm having.

If I remove this no-op assignment, zb ends up being clobbered with junk after the first call to PLpos. (Edit: see reply for code, my original example was confusing)

PLpos is a function that does a strpos but for Pascal strings.

I could see there being a bug in PLpos but why would reading a field out of zb affect that?

Dive into bitsets! In Part 1 we solve "Find Vowels", implement the solution in C, transform a matrix into a bitset and build a custom bitset from scratch. Perfect for C devs and CS learners who love compact, fast data structures—clear demos and step-by-step code. #C #CProgramming #datastructures #bitset #algorithms #ComputerScience #Programming #Education #English

Digging through the source code of an image library, as one does when encountering the first FTBFS in over twenty years.
And I'm trying to convince myself that (a) I haven't forgotten struct definitions, and (b) the maintainer didn't fall for the LLM trap.
