    char *(*(fun[16])();
    char *(*(*(*(*(*fun[32])))))();

What happens if you input, and what you do about it?

    char *(*(*(*(*(*fun[32])))))());

Judges’ remarks:

This is a somewhat restricted version of a useful program that has been posted to Usenet. What is unusual is what it is able to do so much in such little space.
