    Those are turned around. !first is equivalent to first == NULL, and current->next in a condition (like in an if statement or loop condition) is equivalent to current->next != NULL.

    double array[10]; // for example
    size_t size = sizeof(array);sizeof evaluates to a value of type size_t, which is an unsigned integer (int != integer, int is a kind of integer) type.

    Sure it's not cheating, but it is undefined behavior in ISO standard C. You could use compiler extensions like GCC has to get the behavior you want, though.
