WOW! Did you just wrote this? Wow! I takes me two hours to write such a
code (assuming that I knew how to write it in the first place).
Anyway, clear, fully commented code. Everything is pretty clear, aside
from me not knowing malloc and realoc (which I have to learn pretty
soon).
exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);
/*
proper posix way to exit.
*/
return 0;
Which one do you mean is the proper POSIX way of exiting? the exit
function? or return 0? I always put return 0; though my incompetent
instructor doesn't even put it. But I haven't seen the exit() function
before, well, I haven't studdied the POSIX standard !!!
Also, what does sizeof() do? from the code it seems to me it is used for
counting. Am I right?
You use if (((char)tempValue) == EOF) to determine EOF. I
The way I have learned, I use the getchar() function to do so, as in
while ( (tmp = getchar() ) != EOF )
Any advantages to any method?
Also now that I am here, let me abuse your knowledge, and ask one more
thing. I just learned the gets() function, and when I use it on my gcc
3.2, it gives me a "the gets function is dangerous. It shouldn not be
used" warning. I guess gets is now deprecated, but it is still being
tought in our univ. Do you know what is the correct way of inputting a
string of characters, not using gets ?
Thanks again, very very much.
Cheers
