I did not enjoy this assignment at all. After learning to code with Java, my first course in C was a bit of a shock. I'm still not really a fan of C, but I can admit that it's an important thing to know. I think the most important thing I got out of this course was commenting practice, though. The prof was strict about commenting your code, and that broke some bad habits I had developed. Thanks to him, when I look back at this C code, I can easily understand why I wrote what I did - as opposed to my earlier Java assignments, which I can barely follow now.
I wrote this assignment in the C/C++ version of Eclipse 3.5. I think that was a mistake. Eclipse is by far my favourite IDE (I used it for all my Java assignments), but it's designed for Java, not C. It was buggy and sometimes confusing.
