init.c line 33, minor oops

void Initialize()
{
int i, major, minor, id;
TREE *tree;
void *mem;
int j;

tree = block[0];
for (j = 1; j < MAX_BLOCKS; j++)
block[j] == NULL;

Guess this should be block[j] = NULL;

Absolutely. I'll fix it.

I've done my share of those.
But it is unbelivable how we do these things.
Could it be that programming can cause things like alzhimer desease?
I'm saying this because I'm in a pretty bad shape.
I'm 42 and I just sleep 3-5 hours and medication don't help much.
I guess we live in a world we ain't suppose to live in, almost everything around us is bad.

best regards,

What compiler(s) do you guys use? I thought any modern compiler would catch cases like this and give a warning. I just tested gcc and icc under OS X, and they both give a warning (gcc says "statement with no effect", icc says "expression has no effect").

I think in my case it is just a symptom of being almost 61 years old...

I used ICC, with all warnings enabled. I am not sure how that particular glitch happened.

I'm 34, and I can't even write syntactically correct C without using a cheat sheet. I never remember things like the operator precedence levels or where to put semicolons.

I'm 24 and I also can't memorize the operator precedence though I could write well in C without using any reference at all. I think what's important is not what you memorize or what data one have in his brain but rather the way on how to process this data.

One 'rule' I try to follow is

NULL == p

p = NULL

[Steelman]

The old "lint" would find that.
