If you have the primes(6)
tool (sometimes part of BSD
Games) you can see
what of the output in the first N
(say 15
or 25
) lines are primes:
./primes.sh # 15
./primes.sh 25
Note that try.sh
will run this script anyway, telling you where to get
primes(6)
if you don’t have it installed, but it will only run with the
default value of 15, rather than trying several different values.
An interesting use of a recursive call to main()
. Compile and execute
without args. What is the initial value of b
? Does it alter the
action of the program?
If you let it, the program will continue to print a numerical sequence (can you guess in what base it is printed by looking at the code?) until you run out of memory or until they sell your computer, whichever comes first.
If you use the primes.sh script can you figure out if there’s anything funny going on with the output?
