True, at most I read excerpts when I have a question. Can you tell me what gave it away? I thought the saying is that C17 is the sane version of C11 and C23 has quite some changes, but is way to new to be counted on.
- uecker 10mo agoC17 is indeed a bug fix release. C23 finally removed some features that were deprecated a long time ago already in the first standardized version (auto as storage classifier, K&R function definitions, empty parenthesis as "arbitrary arguments") and also support for ones' complement. So yes, C is extremely backwards compatible.
- 1718627440 10mo agoAuto as storage classifier was deprecated? TIL.
- uecker 10mo agoAh no, sorry, my mistake. And it is still a storage classifier, but now (in C23) it is mentioned that it will become a type specifier.
