You mistakenly believe that gcc@gcc.gnu.org is a forum for beginner questions, but this appears to be nabble.com's fault.

No. C doesn't et you do that. > Sent from the gcc - General forum at Nabble.com: > http://www.nabble.com/Computed-Values-in-Preprocessor-t359703.html#a996023 nabble.com is apparently calling this mailing list "the gcc - General forum", which is wrong. It is only for developers and testers of the gcc compiler itself; it is not a place for developers who merely use gcc to write programs to get their questions answered, except for those questions that are so technical that only compiler developers can answer.
