No, but it's another stupid "C for the PC" type book. It's really
amazing all the misinformation that is spread about the C language.
I had to take a short class in C (intro to) which I didn't need but
didn't have the option to test out of. Among several other bits of
crap, the instructor told the class that main can return any type
including a float. That was right before he told the class to use
void main to shut up those anoying messages. Gosh, I guess doing
it the right way was just too much work. ;-)
