| [Note also that this is really the first non-trivial C program that | | |
| I ever wrote. Because of this, much of the code appears very | | |
| amateurish. For example, I tried very hard to avoid C constructs | | |
| that some authors strongly discourage, e.g., goto, continue, | | |
| break. Of course this made some of the code convoluted, e.g., | | |
| contrast | | |
| | |
| int test = 1; | | |
| while (test) | | |
| { | | |
| function (); | | |
| | |
| if (-1 == some_function ()) | | |
| test = 0; | | |
| | |
| if (test) | | |
| some_other_function (); | | |
| } | | |
| | |
| with: | | |
| | |
| while (1) | | |
| { | | |
| function (); | | |
| if (-1 == some_function ()) break; | | |
| some_other_function (); | | |
| } | | |
| | |
| I have since concluded that many text-book authors never actually | | |
| wrote anything non-trivial. Whenever I work on MOST, I try to make | | |
| some changes in an effort to clean it up. ] | | |
