    Lets first establish what it is you are disagreeing with. "No it is not" subtle or "no it is not" required to be 0. Because there is nothing in post # 31 that I disagree with.

    Yes it is. When I mentioned NULL (all caps) here, I'm referring to the null pointer constant.

    Well that's subtle, especially since the value of NULL is required to be 0. It would be interesting to know of one practical example of this on this side of the seventies, and the rationale for...

    See, that's what I don't get. If you assign NULL to a pointer, and NULL is 0 or (void*)0, then the only way the value the pointer would get by being initialized to 'all bits zero' could be different,...

    In that case it's only because 0 does not necessary have to be 'all bits zero' no?



    Well exactly, there was no section 7.22.3.2 where ever I looked.

    Of course you did! You want to use: malloc(some stuct size) then explicitly set each each member to NULL, calloc sets the entire memory region to 0.

    ?

    I'm sorry, that is the entire basis of the discussion. You want to explicitly initialize pointers to NULL, because you think that somehow makes a difference from zero.

    Eh, you are the one who claim that: *P = NULL is different from *p = 0 or *p = (void*)0. Well, let's go back and look what value the NULL pointer constant has then because that is the value that *p...

    The value is 0 since the NULL pointer is either 0 or (void*)0.

    Assigning *p = 0, or *p = (void*)0 is equivalent to NULL. calloc in this case will set it to 0.

    No. My post is directly taken from the C standard. It's been the same since ansi C, so you need to go back pre standard C to find any substance to what you are talking about.

    An integer constant expression with the value 0, or such an expression cast to type void *, is called a null pointer constant.

    What makes you say so? It's a runtime error. Look at the warnings:




    Surely there is no way that following an int, in the belief that it's a void* can lead to a segfault.

    What is the return value of thread_func? It's suppose to be void*, you don't seem to return anything.

    Since this is a digraph couldn't you do a topological sort on it? The nodes without any incoming edges should appear in either end, depending on sort order afaik.

    At the time you return str_buf it points to the last character: '\0'. To free this memory you would need to capture that pointer from remove_space so you can free it main. Edit: that would not work...

    You could divide your datatype into ranges, for example if the above represents a byte (ignoring the 2 for a moment) then each sub type would be able to carry 3 bits of information. Meaning error...
