0-9999 counter with c

Well, if he gets a job somewhere, then the real-world will not find out he knows nothing. The one who finds out he knows nothing, will soon be punished, for the finding.

i got sum code .here it is when u need it.

for ( i = 0 ; i != 9999 ; i = i + one )

;

i = 9999 ;

Hallelujah !

"i got sum code .here it is when u need it."

Thanks for sharing with us.

Complex, yet beautiful in its simplicity. Pure genius.

On one hand, you haven't defined "one". On the other hand - would "one" be allowed to be given any value, or might your little counter possibly get into troubles for some values for "one"?

If you intend "one" to always be the value 1, why would you create a named variable or constant "one"? That is about as clever as creating a variable for pi named m3_1415926535. Having a constant with the same name as the value normally don't help, with a few exceptions. Having a constant is something you do to not have to remember the actual value, or to allow the constant to be changed. But as already mentioned - would it be allowed to change "one" to another value and would some values be unsafe?

Is there a reason for both having a loop and a direct assign of i = 9999?

And what is the data type for i?

By the way - did you post the code to have us check it out, or to help others who wants to know how to create a counter that counts to 9999?

I have a quicker solution:

int i=0;
while(i++<9999);

or, the hard way:

int *i=(int *) malloc(sizeof(int));

memset(i, 0, sizeof(int));

while(*i++<9999);

or ... after reading your code ... a much quicker solution:

int i = 9999;

*smile*

BR,
/th.

int i=0;
while( i++ < 9999 );

Although the source code may be briefer, it is rather unlikely that the generated machine code will be any different at all...

*pssschhhht* ...he doesn't know that! ;-)

Since we're now giving him the answers, here's the one I was going to suggest:

#define TWO 1

  ...

  int i;

  i = 0;

loop:

  i = i + TWO;

  if (i > 9999)
    goto end;

  goto loop;

end:

  ...

whoops ...

#define Z      0
#define N   9999
#define F    for
#define I    int
#define B  break
#define C     if

I i=Z;
F(;;) C(i++>N) B;

You don't say - this is a central part of a guidance system of some kind :-)

So what "code monkey" wrote this, then?

**  Parameters Returned:    u16 -- the counted value

I'm sure your famous book must note somewhere that misleading and/or incorrect comments can often be worse than no comments at all...

But in line with the code quality we expect in this thread, ramble is

#define ramble return random_boring_dictionary_lookups

Thanx Malund Erik
U are funny engineer!
U said u use SILABS in your projects how do u interface CRYSTAL to your hardware? do u use serial or usb port or I/O card compatible with it?
Do u have any manual of it for a beginner person like me!
Things that I always like to learn is interfacing my hardware to cores through USB and SERIAL port
can u hapl me in this field?
