Looks like they're completely different except for
the "f" at the end. Now me, I usually put the "f"
at the front, like "fIUT".

This should be explained in your handy C reference manual. My primary
reference is "C: A Reference Manual" by Harbison & Steele, 5th
edition. I do not know if it has been translated into languages other
than English, though.

Serious question: does the CEE department at IUT recommend using
comp.lang.c as a primary C language reference instead of print
references like H&S or K&R? If so, then they are setting their
students up for failure. c.l.c can be a useful resource if you're
stuck trying to figure out why something doesn't work, but it's not a
substitute for a good reference manual.

Wrong. It is only OCCASIONALLY a discussion group
about C; mostly, like most "discussion" groups, it is
off-topic Rorsharch [sic] revelations of the childhood
traumas of the participants...

You know, I thought about adding a line like "shut up, Kenny; you too,
Nilges" to the end of my post but decided against it in the interests
of not provoking a flamefest.

So much for that plan.

Shut the hell up, Kenny.
