the 'standard' is so strange

[Pilcrow]

This behavior seems very strange to me, but I imagine that someone will
be able to 'explain' it in terms of the famous C standard.

-------------------- code -----------------------------------
#include <stdio.h>

int main (void)
{
char xx[]="abcd";
char * p1 = xx;
char * p2 = xx;
int i;
for(i = 0; i < 4; i++)
printf("%d %c %c\n", i, *p1++, *p1 );
putchar('\n');
for(i = 0; i < 4; i++)
printf("%d %c %c\n", i, *p2, *p2++);
}

-------------------- output -----------------------------------

0 a a
1 b b
2 c c
3 d d

0 b a
1 c b
2 d c
3 d

-------------------------------------------------------------

I understand you come from England,
but I promise not to hold it against
you.

Who is that?

A typo. Actually three, her firstname is Brigitte

I think we should offer sympathy to Mr Winter.

For being to young to have seen BB in her prime? Nah...

Tsk. At least she was refreshing after DD.

Yes, I'm old enough to decipher that 8-))

But since her retirement
some 35 years ago she has become politically involved, although not
exactly correct.

Partly true indeed... (her fight against seal hunting was OK, IMHO)
