in thread Use of 'our' considered harmful

In both cases the type (and most of the modifiers and other cruft) is on the wrong side of the variable. Does anyone think "and now I'm going to need an int, let's call it counter"? I think not. Normal people say to themselves "and now I'm going to need a counter, an int will be enough".

Not speaking about the mess with pointers to functions and functions returning pointers etc. int *foo() vs. int (*)foo() anyone?

    I'm not normal. :-) Because of this, I always make mistakes in SQL when creating tables.

      Too much C over a too long period? ;-)
