Segmentation fault in C

i'll have to agree with that, the only other option is going to another forum if posts about code aren't appreciated or read, so let's hope it doesn't come this far, i really like this forum

b.t.w., i've just registered an account to this forum, but i haven't posted anything there yet, but perhaps i will soon, we'll see...

That's a bit like one of the letters to the editor in the uk "Private Eye" satire magazine. A kind of threat to hand in your subscription. :P if it doesn't make sense, ignore it.

hahahha, that's not what i meant, but isn't it best to stick to one forum where you can go with all your problems, instead of needing 2 or 3? and for me that forum would surely be AO.

Agh... You got to love perl. To write a portscanner in perl. Get yourself a module, and little code and your done.

(Kind of one of the reasons that I stopped using C so much. It took friggin forever to do anything, when I could write the same thing in perl, with much less time.)

I will say, though. I am going to have to go back and relearn C. I have to use it in school, and that will be interesting, trying to use a language that you have forgot.

Actually I sometimes use Perl as the pseudocode for my C program. Perl has a very forgiving syntax and you can use a C-style syntax in Perl. If you stick to the 'basic' modules in Perl you can build and test the functionality of your program. It's usually easy to convert your Perl script to C, just add all the things Perl does automagicly (declaring variables, memory etc.).
