So its dead Jim as soon as you leave.

Not heard anything yet so I'm operating on the basis No news ain't good news.

Yep!

Still early day yet, you obviously didn't chat up the receptionist enough

No time to be bored at the moment.

Running around with a lab of esteemed customers.

Today we are doing full wave rectifiers and letting the magic smoke out of the 555 timer chip.

Ho hum.

Maybe she wanted more than a chat.

[zeitghost]

Gosh.

A chance to sit down for a while.

It's been all go in the 555 timer incineration stakes.

Question from esteemed customer:

Why does

 

if (stuff)

blah 
blah
blah
goto somewhere else

else if ( other stuff )

blah 
blah
blah
goto somewherelseelse

flag an error at the "else if"?

Looked at this for all of 5 minutes before remembering that it does help to put the braces in.

Memo to self: C is not FORTRAN.

Loved the profuse use of GOTO though.

It is notable that this is a pile it high & hope to do a mammoth debug type of code writing project.

I'll be before the end of this, I can tell.

Similarly a different compiler was giving "Can't find main()" error earlier.

Turned out the project hadn't got any source files included.

I'm getting too old for this.
