Hello Mr. Paul,
I went through your provided link. Its here as follows :
main(t,_,a )
char
*
a;
{
return!
0<t?
t<3?
main(-79,-13,a+
main(-87,1-_,
main(-86, 0, a+1 )
+a)):
1,
t<_?
main( t+1, _, a )
:3,
main ( -94, -27+t, a )
&&t == 2 ?_
<13 ?
main ( 2, _+1, "%s %d %d\n" )
:9:16:
t<0?
t<-72?
main( _, t,
"@n'+,#'/*{}w+/w#cdnr/+,{}r/*de}+,/*{*+,/w{%+,/w#q#n+,/#{l,+,/n{n+,/+#n+,/#;#q#n+,/+k#;*+,/'r

}'+}##(!!/")
:
t<-50?
_==*a ?
putchar(31[a]):
main(-65,_,a+1)
:
main((*a == '/') + t, _, a + 1 )
:
0<t?
main ( 2, 2 , "%s")
:*a=='/'||
main(0,
main(-61,*a, "!ek;dc [EMAIL PROTECTED]'(q)-[w]*%n+r3#l,{}:\nuwloca-O;m
.vpbks,fxntdCeghiry")
,a+1);}
But I am not getting what it is doing. Could you tell how to approach these
sort of problems.
Thanking in Advance,
Regards

Erm - why definately? http://www.ioccc.org/1988/phillipps.c (to pick
one at random) is a C program that recursively calls main but doesn't
have a memory overflow problem.
