I loved programming in C, dealing + with memory, pointers, no strings, structs, no strings, linking, no + strings. It was a really interesting difference from the web and Java + programming I had done previously. Obviously the lack of the + "string" type made things interesting and initially a challenge + for me back then. In my most recent endevour I found <code class= + 'inline'>char *</code> to be perfectly suitable for every case I came + across. It was usually a separate library that was failing me, not a + fixed char array. This was mostly due to the types of programs I was + writting in college were text adventures where all of what I did was + using strings. And my lack of understanding of what was actually + happening in C was really what was causing all the issues.</p> <div id='footer'> <a href='/blog/2019-02-17'>Continue reading...</a> </div> |
