"...quoting the 'C' language specs..."

Given some of the questions that pop up on this forum, I'd say that this sort of response is invaluable. They shouldn't be knocked.

I consider myself to be fairly competent when it comes to embedded systems and the use of compilers (at least, in the field in which I work), but like to see some of Jack Sprats responses if only because they occasionally makes me stop, think and pick up my reference manuals.

I hasten to add that Jack is not alone in this regard. There are a few other forum posters around here that sometimes make me do the same.
