[Sussex] Re: C programming help

[Mike Diack]

For one thing - have a look at the following web page.
It talks about structures, pointers and malloc and will help a lot:

Also get a copy of the open source (C only, not C++) lint program, splint,
which will check your files
for you and can find many bugs without you ever running the code:

Also for Linux specifically, look at Valgrind:
