Gotcha. Thanks for the explanation.
Gotcha. Thanks for the explanation.
Why does the for loop return when it hits the end of the function? Isn’t the recursive portion already completed in draw(n - 1)? The rest of it is just normal non-recursive code if I understand it correctly.
Good point!
Ah ha! Yes, I did check the docs but I think I just glanced over that portion. Be more careful next time. Now that I took another look at the other ctype.h functions, they all return 1 or 0. I think I confused equivalent python built-in functions as those evaluated to true/false. The < is a less than sign but it seems it doesn’t render correctly on Lemmy.
Sorry. It’s in C. Updated post. Yes those are titles. I just included the relevant portions rather than the entire code.
Ah I see. I had a bad habit of using else if statements instead of else statements because I thought else if could be better in seeing the condition it’s testing for so it was clearer. I get the logic is actually different now.
Yes - I finally caught that part about n as it’s just moving in reverse so it gets decremented. Now I’m not sure about i. In the debugger when the program gets to the for loop both n and i are equal to 1. The n I understand but i?
