    The latter might certainly be enlightening. I had always problems
    to write such code. And seeing functional code would help. - But
    it's off-topic as you say. Less off-topic are (IMO) C++ solutions
    in contrast to C; C++ has a C base and C appears to me to advance
    "with an eye on" C++.

    It's not me saying this. I am just repeating the CLC party line.

    Ask Leader Keith. He'll tell you.

    It has always been CLC policy that C++ is just as off-topic as Fortran or
    C# or any other language (other than C, of course). And, of course, that
    being "off topic" is the highest and most unforgivable sin.

    Just ask Leader Keith. He'll tell you.

    Leader Keith will tell you that we are not here to solve problems or to
    discuss programming techniques. We are here to debate minutiae of the
    various standards documents.
