47MB of code from a min/max macro is simply hilarious!

  The effects of preprocessor in C are quite significant. Old DOS Turbo C had shown amount of lines compiled and the speed in the compilation progress window in the IDE. IIRC straight #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> int main(int argc, char**argv){ puts("hello, world"); return EXIT_SUCCESS; } came to something ridiculous on the order of 100k lines.

    Well, the #includes are hiding quite a few lines underneath them. While probably not 100k, I wouldn’t be surprised if it was, say, 20k.

    On my computer this only results in 1828 lines. (tested with `gcc -E - | wc -l`)
