### Requirements

This program is quite portable, only requiring the following:

* The signature `int main(int, int)` should be accepted by the linker. (Original

version only).
|

* `char` should be at least 8 bits long (as dictated by the standard), `int`
|
||||
* `char` should be at least 1 byte long (as dictated by the standard), `int`
|

should be at least 32 bits long, `long long` should be at least 64 bits long.
|
||||
* Both the compiler and execution environment should use an ASCII-compatible

character set and two's complement representation.
