I found this interesting article: http://www.osnews.com/story.php?news_id=7990
As I have a pretty clear view of my limitations as a C coder I thought I'd take a look.
See how you score on the examples here: http://www.nostarch.com/frameset.php?startat=hownotc
So set the ball rolling, here is a snippet from a program I found via freshmeat the other day:
configfile = malloc(strlen(getenv("HOME")) + 20);
sprintf(configfile,"%s/%s",getenv("HOME"), cfgfile);
Can you see what's wrong with it? (if you fancy yourself as a hacker and think it's pretty obvious, hold back a bit and give someone else a chance).
