It is an interesting set of articles,
some of them (switch, null) being also
relevant for pure C.
However, I noted
some typos, that you should correct as
these articles are mainly aimed at
beginners which possibly cannot see
them:
Null terminator:
char Name[5]
= {'J','o','h','n','0'};
Obviously,
the last character should either be 0
or '\0'. Now, perhaps RTF eated the
backslash...
Rogue array
pointers:
First for, condition should
be i == 5, not i = 5 (BTW, this is
another pitfall you should point
out!).
Second example:
const
MAXARRAY = 20;
you should either keep
5 or update the comment
below...
ASSERT vs. VERIFY:
Not a
bug, but you main want to suppress the
double
