Has anyone here got access to a ridiculous computer? Something like:
CHAR_BIT == 9
PADDING_BITS(int) != 0
NUMBER_SYSTEM == SIGN_MAGNITUDE
Null pointer bit pattern == All ones
I'm writing some fully-portable code and would love to actually compile it
for, and test it on, a very strange machine :-D
Or does anyone know of a particular machine I could get my hands on very
cheaply just for playing around with, something very strange which I can
get a compliant C89 compiler for? An old supercomputer perhaps? The main
thing I'd want is a strange value for CHAR_BIT, but I'd be ecstatic if the
integer types had padding aswell!
