Real world questions about the C programming language are entirely
on-topic here. Note, however, that many questions posted here are not
about C itself, but about the quirks of particular implementations of C.
You can get better answers to such questions by asking in forums
specific to the relevant implementation, and helpful people will remind
your of that. It's a misunderstanding of those redirections to conclude
that c.l.c is not for real world questions.

However Python is NOT an implementation of C, not even by the loosest
reasonable interpretation, so why should it be discussed here?.
