#define question

[Unregistered]

can i #define a character.
for example the value of the char. 'N' is 78
'E' is 69
'N' + 'E' = 147
i want to #define NE 147
is this possible??

you could do something like this

#include <stdio.h>
#define ADD_CHAR(a,b)(a+b)
int main()
{
	printf("%d",ADD_CHAR('N','E'));
	return 0;
}

then it would work for any letter.

just a thought

Yes
you can #define NE 147
so 'N'+'E'==NE would be true.

Hate to be the one to tell ya this Salem, but your code is invalid.

#include <stdio.h>

#define QUESTION ( 2B || !(2B) )
int main ( void )
{
	return printf("%d", QUESTION );
}

Compiling...
test1.c
c:\windows\desktop\test.c\test1.c(6) : error C2059: syntax error : 'bad suffix on number'
c:\windows\desktop\test.c\test1.c(6) : error C2146: syntax error : missing ')' before identifier 'B'
c:\windows\desktop\test.c\test1.c(6) : error C2059: syntax error : 'bad suffix on number'
Error executing cl.exe.

test1.exe - 3 error(s), 0 warning(s)


...And then, as I was typing this message, I actually _read_ the code. Good one, you got me there. Good show!

Cool

How about writing a whole novel in C?
