2015-03-03Solve Exercise 6-01: Enhanced `getword`zlg1-0/+170
This exercise improved my understanding of identifying comments and quotes by focusing on edge cases.
2015-02-20Solve Exercise 5-20: Expanded `dcl`zlg1-0/+215
This marks the end of chapter 5. Admittedly, the solution for 5-20 is terrible, but it does what it's supposed to do. I'm just excited to move onto chapter 6 and start learning structures!

2015-01-30Solve Exercise 5-18: error-recovering `dcl`zlg1-0/+172
This exercise was a real pain in the ass. The original use of getch() and ungetch() was inferior to a line-based approach. It really doesn't seem like the way a parser should be built, but it taught me a little about the order of recursion. I'm convinced that a debugger is necessary if you want to build a good parser. This implementation doesn't recurse in a natural way, or even enough to stack data type prefixes. Hopefully by the time I get to 5-20 I'll have enough ideas to implement something that *does* recurse well.

2013-10-18Solve Exercise 5-13: tailzlg1-0/+106
This exercise was somewhat irritating until I caved and used the code in section 5.6 like the exercise suggested. The solution is not what I think is clean, but given that [mc]*alloc haven't been covered yet, it's probably the best one can muster. Once I used the code in ยง5.6, the program fell into place. Still, it was a neat exercise.

2013-09-26Solve Exercise 5-11: `entab` and `detab` remixed!zlg2-0/+137
This one was pretty rough. At first I wanted to include a bunch of error-catching and "smart" stuff. When I took a second look at it and realized `itoa` returns 0 on a string, things became a bit easier. I may have been able to outsource a few things to a function or two, but overall I think it worked out.

This exercise was fun and taught me a bit about initializing arrays and working with pointers.

2013-09-08Solve Exercise 5-6: pointer-based functionszlg1-0/+154
This exercise was not very fun or interesting. While I somewhat enjoyed learning to use pointers, this was a bunch of busywork. It felt like homework, and that's terrible. It's the first exercise I've outright disliked. If you're writing a programming book, *don't* make exercises like this one!
2013-09-03Solve Exercise 5-5: strn{cpy|cat|cmp}zlg1-0/+76
This exercise seemed like it was designed to "pull it all together" with things learned in the previous few pages. Not much new in terms of techniques, but more a test to see how you could blend everything together.
2013-09-02Solve Exercise 5-4: strend()zlg1-0/+37
Detailed answers below the question will only occur now if I cannot explain myself well enough in code and nearby comments. I'm looking to learn how to write better comments so there's less need for prose.
