the c training course at a popular uk training company (the instruction set) had duff's device on something like page 5 of their c course - expunging it was one of the first things i did when i joined them. there were many others.



i don't ask this too often - but what is wrong with this comment?


I presume you angered the Duff Defenders (there are those that feel C shouldn’t be taught unless you’re taught all the weird things it can do).


yes, that was probably my feeling at the time. but perhaps a bit much for people struggling with compiling and running hello world.
