as small as possible

I'm surprised you didn't make the connection between this and your
responses to me on the 'realloc question' thread last week...
I saw the opportunity to take you out of context (as you did me)
and used it to see if it would elicit a response from you.
Nice to find that your killfile remains as empty as mine.

So your "*plonk*" was a lie.

So what you all suggest is trial and error. Because I thought
there where some general rules like:

int counter = 0;

while(counter < something) {
do work;
counter++;
}
OR
for(int counter = 0; counter < something; counter++)
do work;

are totaly different implemented in assembly, or is this only
compiler (and its settings offcourse) dependant?

A moderately capable compiler, when optimizing, will probably
generate the identical code for both those sequences. You should
write for clarity and leave the optimizing to the compiler.

Certainly, wasn't that made clear by the last line of my post?
My response was actually identical to a response he had made
to me in another thread... the portion you quoted explains why.

There's a medium-sized difference.

Your post accused Chuck Falconer of pimping his software here, and
then told me to go f**k myself.

Anyone who cares to can verify this by googling for the thread.

Yes, and in the post I also explained why I approve of him doing so.

and then told me to go f**k myself.

Well, I told you to go back and re-read my entire post as you took
me out of context. As for telling you to... well, that may have been
a little harsh, sorry. ;-)
