That's compiling as C, not as C++.


My C compiler gave several screens of errors and warning before giving up.


Try it again, fixing the trivial error on line 20 (for which I apologise).
Any errors you get then will be either because you have managed to dig up a
C99 compiler from somewhere (and I don't claim that the program is valid
C99), or because your compiler is simply issuing diagnostics for the sake
of it. Modulo the linesplice accident, the program is, as far as I'm aware,
a legal C90 program.

One good reason for passing C though a C++ compiler:

"/tmp/x.c", line 16: Error: Cannot use const char[82] to initialize
char[81].
