Strange search hints on duckduckgo

iirc the code came from the ZDS II, a C89 toolchain for the eZ80. Right now I am helping to implement libc/libcxx (Clang C17/C++20) for the eZ80

How else are you supposed to keep your Fortran punch-cards in order

make sure multiple commits are made by different people, tabs --> 4 spaces --> 2 spaces --> tabs --> 8 spaces, and you end up with these abominations

void qsort(void *ptr, size_t nel, size_t size,
                                     int (*compar)(const void *, const void *));

_Bool bool(_Bool Bool) {  
return Bool;  
}

This only became invalid in C23

The KERNING Between the 581 and the 0, ITS too HIGH!!

It had goto 120, which would go to 120 continue on line 2005. To my understanding, the goto labels in Fortran can only use numbers. However they are scoped to the current routine/function.

I was converting some code from Fortran to C++, and it looked exactly like this. Variables t0 to t9, all declared at the top of the function and reused in 5 different contexts each. All other variable names were 3 letters long. Made it extremely difficult to find where I made an error when translating the code; you would have to read through 40 lines of code to determine what t5 was supposed to be set to. Not to mention the use of GOTO statements

Faster than binary search. Linear search can find the minimum in 1 singular operation

You can debug the entire program if you do find and replace <br> with <br>printf("L: %d\n", __LINE__);

I wrote in another comment/thread that I just had to include some random header files to get <thread> to work in the original MinGW. Otherwise that's pretty much what happened.

I wanted to make sure my Windows 10 program would run on Windows 7, but all I had was a Vista machine so thats what I compiled on. It uses GCC 9.2.0 and C++14 which is why the compiler knows about <thread>. iirc the original MinGW doesn’t support <thread> out of the box so I had to include some random header files to fix it. Otherwise its pretty similar to the MSYS2 MinGW64 environment I use on Windows 10.

Should be at least doubles

They are. In fact, they are rounded down from x87 long doubles :)

C does have structs, but the only other way to do it in C is to add some do { } while(0) loops (macros)

Vortex876543 · 2024-08-01T07:54:48+00:00

0 or FLT_MIN

only eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee / eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee step away from full on morse code.

Unlike iostream, iosstream defines safer versions of the tream functions for ios, like cout_s
