Grrrrr, I need help

[peradox]

This is sad... ...but what does this statement do?, I can't understand the "++y/x+" part. The rest is fine...

printf( ++y/x+"\0 %d \n", x);


Here is the complete code

#include <stdio.h>

int main(x,y)  {
      for(;x++;)  {
         for(y=2;x%y;) {
            printf( ++y/x+"\0 %d \n", x);
         }
      }
      return 0;
}

Thanks for any help.

 int main(x,y)

whats that?? that is wrong..thats not the way main takes parameters...you would have to specify the type, that is int or char or whatever for x and y.

for(;x++;)

the general syntax for the for loop is

 for(initialvalue;condition;increment\decrement)

i doubt your program will ever reach an end with your code.

also, stuff like y++/x++ results in undefined behaviour..if you want to increment, try y+=1

> but what does this statement do?
This is obfuscated code - relax, it's just a bit of fun.

Though if someone is teaching you this as being acceptable 'C' coding, then leave the class now, because your tutor is a grade-A MORON.

> x+"\0 %d \n"
A small hint, this is equivalent
"\0 %d \n"[x]

THAT IS NOT MY CODE. just to get that clear... ...I don't code lke that and am not taking a class. I just found this code on the internet and didn't understand it, that's all. I can understand your initial disgust though ... ...

Anyway, any more help???
