Third answer to my alphabet question:

#include <stdio.h>
 
void main ()
{
    char Array[26] = { 'a', 'b', ... 'z'};
 
    int i;
 
    for (i = 0; i <= 26; i++)
    {
        printf(%c\\n, *Array[i]);
    }
    exit;
}

There is no typo in the transcript. What do you think? Is my question ‘too hard’? Is it not ‘appropriate’ for a ‘C’ developer position?

Second answer… again, there is no typo, this is the pure transcript of the candidate’s answer.

main(argc, argv[])
{
    int i = 0;
    char a[26] = { 'a', 'b', 'c', ...'z'}
 
    for (i = 0; i <=26; i++)
    {
        printf("%d/n", a[i]%);
    }
    return;
}

With this question, I’m realizing that array usage in C, is clearly not clear for everyone.
