This Repository features C source code i wrote to learn the C programming language. Currently the most advanced program included is an unfinished implementation of the huffman algorithm.
Some programs make use of outdated and unsafe functions such as gets()
or scanf()
, which should never be used.
That is the case, because we were teached to use some of these in programming classes. Ideally, all uses
of these unsafe functions should include a comment explaining why this is bad and also include and implemented
alternative, but that may not always be the case.
All code in this Repository was written on and for a Linux x86_64 system. It might not work on other systems.
Note:
scanf()
is not inherently unsafe, but must be handled very careful and isn't recommended by most, so i have
chosen to classify it as unsafe. If you know exactly what you are doing using scanf()
seems to be acceptable.
I consider the use of scanf()
to be bad practice.
