resolved: difference between memcpy and memmove

[Mac]

$ cat junk27.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

int main (void)
{
printf("The difference between memcpy and memmove is %ld\n",
(long int) memcpy - (long int) memmove);
return 0;
}

$ make junk27
cc -Wall -ansi -pedantic junk27.c -o junk27

$ ./junk27
The difference between memcpy and memmove is 48
$
So now we can put that behind us.

Too bad :(

You want 42?

#include <stdio.h>

#define SIX 1+5
#define NINE 8+1

int main(void)
{
printf("%d * %d = %d\n", SIX, NINE, SIX * NINE);
return 0;
}

(Not original; I don't remember where I got it.)

Yep, but this only gives you the answer. What we're looking for here is
the question...

mix up the b and d chars ? i read that first as dlackdirbs :-)
