hard isnt it?

i like being generalist as well.., i get bored too easily to focus on just one thing

hmm i guess that could work. nice..

and i thought it was about some obscure C programming language feature that he was testing me on. Some advanced pointer stuff.

brilliant..

can I say, in my defense, i was worried about division by zero, or signed vs unsigned for additions/substractions. Haha

interesting problem bout swapping values without additional storage.. does this count?

a=2, b=3;
a=axb (a is now 6, b is still 3);
b=a/b (a is 6, b is now 2);
a=a/b (a is now 3, b=2);

can do additions/substractions too
