Handy tool for C coders

[Karlos]

After some time messing around with lesser languages, I found I forgot some of my C declaration syntax for some of the more exotic pointer types.

Anyway, I stumbled (actually, now that I think about it, I recall that maybe nicholas mentioned this one to me before) across the following site which is quite handy:

The 3rd example disgorges the following rumination:

Code: [Select]

(double (^)(int , long long ))foo
I don't understand.

Don't feel bad about that, it's not remotely standard C syntax, rather an Apple extension to C, called "blocks" which aim to mirror the functionality of lambda expressions in more recent languages.

--never mind-- Karlos had the answer.

Still, it doesn't happen often :lol:
