/* The C Programming Language, 2nd Edition

 * Exercise 2-2: Write a loop equivalent to the 'for' loop above without
 * using && or ||.
 *
 * (The for loop is:
 *
 * for (i=0; i < lim - 1 && (c = getchar()) != '\n' && c != EOF)
 *     i++;
 *
 * Answer: A recursive function should do the job. I think...
