Write a program to copy its input to its output,
replacing each tab by \t , each backspace by \b , and each backslash by \\ .
This makes tabs and backspaces visible in an unambiguous way.

How would you test the word count program? What kinds of input are most likely
to uncover bugs if there are any?

Write a program to print a histogram of the lengths of words in its input. It is easy
to draw the histogram with the bars horizontal; a vertical orientation is more challenging.

Write a program detab that replaces tabs in the input with the proper number of blanks to space
to the next tab stop. Assume a fixed set of tab stops, say every n columns. Should n
be a variable or a symbolic parameter?
|
Listing krx120 |
Me |
| 21 | 34 |
Write a program entab that replaces strings of blanks with the minimum number of tabs and blanks
to achieve the same spacing. Use the same stops as for detab . When either a tab or a single blank
would suffice to reach a tab stop, which should be given preference?

Write a program to "fold" long input lines into two or more shorter lines after the last
non-blank character that occurs before the n -th column of input. Make sure your
program does something intelligent with very long lines, and if there are no blanks or
tabs before the specified column.

Write a program to remove all comments from a C program. Don't forget
to handle quoted strings and character constants properly. C comments do not nest.

This was the first exercise for which solutions were submitted
en masse from comp.lang.c, and
as a result, quite a few solutions have been provided here. You
may find it interesting to compare and contrast different approaches
to the same problem.

Write a program to check a C program for rudimentary syntax errors like unbalanced parentheses,
brackets and braces. Don't forget about quotes, both single and double, escape sequences, and
comments. (This program is hard if you do it in full generality.)
