  If you want to show cleverness, by all means! I still use some primitive tools, and know there are better alternatives, but I'm not going to defend sticking with them. BTW, I did win the Obfuscated C contest one year, and (naturally) used the preprocessor: https://www.ioccc.org/1986/bright/bright.c https://www.ioccc.org/1986/bright/bright.c
