Ye' old general discussion board. Basically, for everything that isn't covered elsewhere. Come here to shoot the breeze, shoot your mouth off, or whatever suits your fancy. This forum is not for asking programming related questions.
I recall back in the days when I was programming in C for DOS. (Everyone else was programming for DOS too, as MS had not yet released Windows #1, and C++ had not yet been invented. I am quite old.) I had a place where the screen sometimes would go blank for about one second and then the program would resume normally. I debugged like crazy and could not find it. Weeks went by with no luck. I got a couple other programmers to look for it. No luck. It seemed to be doing no harm, but a full second of blank screen is a long time, and certainly something was going on.
It was me that finally found it, which saved me from having to advertise my stupidity until I was old enough to not mind advertising my stupidity.
I was telling a string input function to finish out an input by printing spaces. The variable was an unsigned integer, but I was not testing to be sure that no negative value ever reached the variable. We all know how an unsigned integer interprets a -1, don't we?
it required the technology of that time about one second to print 32,672 spaces to the screen. Blush.
