Oh, no... I'm dumb. typedef struct { int x; } b; int a(b *param) { return printf("%d\n", b->x); } int print_number(int c) { return a(&(b){c}); }
Great! You've got it! Now for extra credit... Where would this trick be sort of useful?
I shorten it by one character.... a(&(b){}) ... (but then it does something subtly more that the previous one...oooh I'm evil!)
What would your program print if you took out the c and why? int print_number(void) { return a(&(b){}); } John Carter Phone : (64)(3) 358 6639 Tait Electronics Fax : (64)(3) 359 4632 PO Box 1645 Christchurch Email : john.carter@xxxxxxxxxx New Zealand
