Get all 1988 entries to compile
For 1988/dale it will not compile under macOS. I was able to get it to almost compile under macOS but there was one problem. As well this 'fix' will make it not compile under linux. One change was required which was changing the #define _ define followed by #_ foo to be just '#define foo' etc. Added to 1988/isaak/.gitignore isaak.output. 1988/spinellis won't compile with clang. 1988/phillipps will compile but it is likely to segfault at least in some systems (maybe not all). Updated many README.md files for the changes above (and probably other changes I've neglected to write in this log). Most changes in the readme files are probably just formatting and probably typos as well as how to compile and run entries nowadays. There might have been other changes.

The author says:

|

This program shows that C has many unnecessary constructs, in fact
|
||||
only "while","--", and ">=" are required. (The two assignments at
|
||||
the beginning could be avoided if "atoi" was rewritten with this
|
||||
new paradigm.) Note that the lack of both the controversial "goto"
|
||||
and assignment statements makes the meaning crystal clear. The current
|
||||
ANSI committee should look into this practical simplification of C.

not take a while to execute?
