Indeed. I assumed the programmer had included the standard headers. On my system, any implicit declaration is punished by a warning, or even an error depending on the strictness of the settings. Since we were in the context of casting to shut up one warning, I assumed no implicit declaration warning, so no implicit declaration at all. I guess that's where my assumption fails: I suppose implicit declarations elicit no warning on your system. Thanks for the clarification.
