If I comment out this code in testgenerate.c


/* read from pipe */
while(check = read(fd,readbuf,10) != 0){

The jist of this program is there's testgenerate that reads from a pipe called ncc, after it forks two children that both write to the pipe. The only problem is that when the processes open the pipe,...
