Go to the book store/library/fellow hacker and open the pages, read a little, hack a little, etc. Look, maybe we should create a "comp.lang.c.beginner" group or something. I'm getting tired of reading these endless questions like "what's a comma operator?", why do we have a main function?, how do I post to this network? etc. etc. As for the above question which prompted me to write this: if everyone in your class knows who he is, then ASK THEM! -- Ari Halberstadt '91, "Long live succinct signatures" E-mail: ari@eleazar.dartmouth.edu Telephone: (603)640-5687 Mailing address: HB1128, Dartmouth College, Hanover NH 03755

Maybe I'm in the minority...but I thought this was a worthwhile group.
However, seeing the number of idiots who can't recognize obvious forgeries
dispensing advice is quickly changing my mind. I don't get pissed off at
"stupid" questions -- just all these stupid answers.

At the risk of many flames, I believe that most of the "questions" to which you referred were SARCASTIC JOKES (personally, I thought they were humorous ...a waste of bandwidth, but humorous).
