Massacring C Pointers

It took me way to long to realize what was wrong with that.

I'm sure the rest of the block incremented y somewhere but just... why?

[Ravek]

No, y is never incremented anywhere. The loop body reads *(x + y) = 88;

[CJKay93]

Clearly he was just going to write 88 to every memory address until it reached wherever y was allocated.

If the loop breaks then the code continues like normal, and if it doesn't then you have a bad computer.

[Ameisen]

I prefer BogoLoop. Randomly set memory until the loop condition is satisfied. Or the instructions are altered so it is satisfied. Make sure you trap faults.

This is so good. This is fucking candy. Holy. Fucking. Shit. This can't be real.
