I like your signature more than your mail. ;) Anyway I think you are wrong. Obviously I don't want to get into an argument. C is strongly typed. You cannot use any variable without declaring in advance. All scripting languages...by that I mean *all* scripting languages allow dynamic typing and weak typing. This is a key point that everyone has to understand. -Girish -- Gayatri Hitech web: http://gayatri-hitech.com SpamCheetah Spam filter: http://spam-cheetah.com _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, email ilugc-requ...@ae.iitm.ac.in with "unsubscribe <password> <address>" in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
