Quite possibly, but it's also possible that the OP has seen the
recent spate of off-topic flaming and is making a clumsy attempt
to encourage actual discussion of C programming.

Perhaps we should consider following his example, if not his
typography.

Some advice to 88888 Dihedral:

1. Don't post in all-caps.  It's considered equivalent to shouting, and
is generally seen as rude.  Same for exclamation points.

2. Questions about actual problems you've encountered are more likely to
generate good answers than contrived puzzles (unless the puzzles are
particularly interesting, but frankly these aren't).
