From e8d868e0ed49438eaa85e7d0f5a7c264413bc025 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Cody Boone Ferguson <53008573+xexyl@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Fri, 21 Jun 2024 08:37:37 -0700 Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Additional fix for 1989/fubar My original fix no longer worked, at least with clang in some systems, because of more strictness in the compiler wrt implicit ints. As the code does not use the Makefile but rather 'cc' (and in an unusual way) 'main()' now has an explicit int. Also, what was previously documented as a bug to be fixed has been changed to INABIAF as it was documented already. Thus it should not be fixed. In fact the judges originally noted that if one specifies the triggering input they should expect an infinite loop and compilation failure. --- 1989/fubar/README.md | 5 +- 1989/fubar/fubar.c | 2 +- 1989/fubar/index.html | 5 +- bugs.html | 207 +++++++++++++++++++++--------------------- bugs.md | 8 +- thanks-for-help.html | 5 +- thanks-for-help.md | 5 +- 7 files changed, 121 insertions(+), 116 deletions(-) diff --git a/1989/fubar/README.md b/1989/fubar/README.md index 2f54d9404..b933de52e 100644 --- a/1989/fubar/README.md +++ b/1989/fubar/README.md @@ -10,7 +10,7 @@ The current status of this entry is: ``` - STATUS: known bug - please help us fix + STATUS: INABIAF - please **DO NOT** fix ``` For more detailed information see [1989/fubar in bugs.html](../../bugs.html#1989_fubar). @@ -36,7 +36,8 @@ For more detailed information see [1989/fubar in bugs.html](../../bugs.html#1989 ## Judges' remarks: Run this with a single digit argument (or wait a long time and risk an infinite -loop as described in the [1989/fubar in bugs.html](../../bugs.html#1989_fubar) file). +loop and compilation error as described in the [1989/fubar in +bugs.html](../../bugs.html#1989_fubar) file).
