How do I convert an int to binary form?

[CBFalconer]

I don't recall that. I would be more likely to omit the "!= 0"
portion though. If n was a pointer I still object.

I'm offline, so can't use that to refresh any memories. I never
"come around". I may occasionally expand my horizons. Extreme
crusty dogmatism is the watchword here.

I looked up your reference during an online interim. It was
actually "n-- >= 0" with n an unsigned integer, leading to an
infinite loop. I certainly never even approached "coming around".

No. The above URL is one where you advocate (n--)
in response to Richard Harter blowing it with (--n >= 0).

This is an older URL of your having seen
while (nmemb-- != 0)
and not understanding it:

Are you trolling? The following is pasted from that reference:

A slight reorganization adds a world of safety, and makes it do the
right thing when nmemb is zero.

void free_ptrs(char **s, size_t nmemb)
{
while (nmemb) free(s[--nmemb]);
}
----------------- end paste -----------------

In future kindly post quotations rather than such (awkward to get
at for me) references. I stand by everything I said back then. If
you disagree go ahead and quote and argue out in the open.

No you don't. You took it back.

"Apologies. The original does work correctly. I was thinking
(faultily) that it would do the unsigned wrap around thing and run
indefinitely for an input value of zero, while trying to access
non-existing array members."

The first time that our friend CBFalconer
noticed my (n-- != 0) stepping through an array,
as I recall, he really didn't like it.
I can't recall any words from that thread to google on though.

It took him a while to get used to it.

I don't recall that. I would be more likely to omit the "!= 0"
portion though. If n was a pointer I still object.

By the time that the "Implementing my own memcpy" thread
came up, CBFalconer had come around.

Allright. You have shown that I can repeat my mistakes. It also
shows that conditionals with side effects can be obfuscating.
However there was nothing wrong with my suggested replacement code,
and it required little examination to convince the reader of
correctness.
