Answers to all questions are freely available on numerous sites, and I can and will consult them if need be, but I would rather ask here as I would rather do the "bulk" of the question myself, as in the case here. Simply consulting the answer is not very academically useful.
I generally gain useful nuggets of wisdom here that I will not gain elsewhere.
Hi Riker1204,
I believe flimbar was asking whether or not this was a homework assignment. As you know, homework assignments are only accepted at The UNIX & Linux Forums in the
homework and coursework questions subforum under
special homework rules.
Obviously disedorgue and Corona688 did not believe that this was a homework assignment and it didn't appear to me to be one to me either, but it is close to that point where we start to wonder. When you start threads like this in the future, you might want to explicitly mention what you are doing and what prompted you to ask your question so readers won't wonder if you're asking us to do your homework for you.
Cheers,
Don
PS. What is the
classic K&M C programming language book you referenced? The classic C book I usually think about is
K&R C.
