Hi Kevin,
The actual function is not a pointer to a function -- it's the actual function.
Under the covers of C (i.e., at the assembly language level), a label to a function is just a label.
But the syntax of C doesn't have the language construct of "here's a label (identifier), here's the type of that label, and here's it's body".
So, no, you'll have to do it "the hard way".

C CHALLENGE: can you write a function that returns a function pointer which has the same signature as the function itself? (Without using one-or-more big hammer casts.) Useful trick for making a state machine.
