Not complete (if I recall correctly) - but the Web site you're looking for

There's a worthwhile hard-copy available. _The C Solution Book_ About 3/8"
thick and fewer errata than the covers of Unleashed.

I'm curious what's at that link.

Do you mean /The C Answer Book/ by Clovis & Tondo?

I'm curious what's at that link.

Solutions to some of the exercises in K&R2, contributed by various clc
participants.

Well about a K&R2 exercise posted in another thread. I think the answer:

K&R2 solutions:Chapter 2:Exercise 1 - clc-wiki

http://clc-wiki.net/wiki/K%26R2_solutions:Chapter_2:Exercise_1

#include <stdio.h>
#include <limits.h>

int
main ()
{
printf("Size of Char %d\n", CHAR_BIT);
printf("Size of Char Max %d\n", CHAR_MAX);
printf("Size of Char Min %d\n", CHAR_MIN);
printf("Size of int min %d\n", INT_MIN);
printf("Size of int max %d\n", INT_MAX);
printf("Size of long min %ld\n", LONG_MIN); /* RB */
printf("Size of long max %ld\n", LONG_MAX); /* RB */
printf("Size of short min %d\n", SHRT_MIN);
printf("Size of short max %d\n", SHRT_MAX);
printf("Size of unsigned char %u\n", UCHAR_MAX); /* SF */
printf("Size of unsigned long %lu\n", ULONG_MAX); /* RB */
printf("Size of unsigned int %u\n", UINT_MAX); /* RB */
printf("Size of unsigned short %u\n", USHRT_MAX); /* SF */

return 0;
}

is wrong and a bit incomplete.

I think the correct one is:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <limits.h>

int main ()
{
printf("Size of Char %d\n", CHAR_BIT);
printf("Size of Char Max %d\n", CHAR_MAX);
printf("Size of Char Min %d\n", CHAR_MIN);
printf("Size of int min %d\n", INT_MIN);
printf("Size of int max %d\n", INT_MAX);
printf("Size of long min %ld\n", LONG_MIN); /* RB */
printf("Size of long max %ld\n", LONG_MAX); /* RB */
printf("Size of short min %d\n", SHRT_MIN);
printf("Size of short max %d\n", SHRT_MAX);
== printf("Size of unsigned char max %u\n", (unsigned) UCHAR_MAX);
== printf("Size of unsigned long max %lu\n", ULONG_MAX); /* RB */
== printf("Size of unsigned int max %u\n", UINT_MAX); /* RB */
== printf("Size of unsigned short max %u\n", USHRT_MAX); /* SF */

return 0;
}

Then why not submit your own version to the C wiki?

There is a box in the top right corner which when you hover the mouse
over it will give you the login/creat account options. Alternatively
alt+shift+O should work. Email me if you still have problems.

I think the correct one is:

[snip]

The more serious problem is that the messages are worded incorrectly.
It prints, for example (on my system):

Size of int max 2147483647

2147483647 is not a size, it's an upper bound.

The two lines
printf("Size of int min %d\n", INT_MIN);
printf("Size of int max %d\n", INT_MAX);
should be replaced with something like:
printf("Range of int is %d to %d\n", INT_MIN, INT_MAX);

Fixed. I think your contribution is made clear in the text, if not
please post a reply.

Do you mean /The C Answer Book/ by Clovis & Tondo?

Yup. I dug it out today while I was moving crates of books. It's more like
5/8".

The authors are Tondo and Gimpel. Mr. Tondo's first name is Clovis. I'm
reasonably certain I've never met a Clovis before.
