I suppose this is an evergreen topic for new C programmers. I find it surprising that HN is posting something that's basically a verbatim quote from K&R which was first published in 1978. a 33 year-old C hack ain't news.
Than again, I guess the days where you could assume everyone who knew how to program programmed in C are long gone.
