Which version of C? The answers vary. For 1st ed. K&R, you're going to get implementation-specific behaviour, which might very well vary whether or not optimization is enabled.

So, you're saying that people who have sufficient disposable income to purchase a very expensive sports car that they can only "refuel" near their home needn't worry about how much it's going to cost them to do so? I'm relieved.

Because they'll save a ton of money on lawyers and pretend interviews of Americans to justify their hiring practices. Of course, even though they played by the current rules, Cisco got burned a while back: http://books.google.com/books?id=

In other words, take a spread-spectrum radio and add to it the ability to probe the individual carrier frequencies for usability (much like a V.34 modem), include some sort of coördination protocol between the radios and voilà!

So, if someone's going to steal your stuff, you'll only get it back if you're rich? Or is the lesson we should learn is "If you're going to do anything questionable at home on your 'net connection, make sure your wifi is open."?

Ok, for an embedded controller project without much in the way of I/O (just GPIO), you can get a cheaper unit, it seems. If you want the ethernet and the USB and mass storage (SD Card), and an actual O/S (Linux), it seems as if Rπ still ha

I keep watching, but all of the other ARM boards cost more than the Rπ – usually greater than 3x the cost of the RπB. You can occasionally find an Arduino for less than what the RπB will run you, and while it has the GPIO, it doesn't have

Nothing seriously now. In the past: sax, harmonica, lap dulcimer. Was working on teaching myself how to play the banjo I had made some time ago, but I seem to have forgotten what I'd learned about that.
