2013-10-18	Solve Exercise 5-13: tail	zlg	1	-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 §5.6, the program fell into place. Still, it was a neat exercise.

2013-09-26	Solve Exercise 5-11: `entab` and `detab` remixed!	zlg	2	-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.

2013-09-21	Solve Exercise 5-9: day of year functions with pointers	zlg	1	-0/+74
	This exercise was fun and taught me a bit about initializing arrays and working with pointers.

2013-09-11	Solve Exercise 5-7: Improved readlines()	zlg	1	-0/+106

2013-09-08	Solve Exercise 5-6: pointer-based functions	zlg	1	-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!
2013-09-03	Solve Exercise 5-5: strn{cpy\|cat\|cmp}	zlg	1	-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.
2013-09-02	Solve Exercise 5-4: strend()	zlg	1	-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.

2013-08-19	Solve Exercise 5-2: getfloat()	zlg	1	-0/+75
