Hello
In the following sample, why the commented print gives a syntax error?
cpu% 8c -FVw t.c
t.c:12 syntax error, last name: maxarg2
#include <u.h>
#include <libc.h>
static double maxarg1,maxarg2;
#define FMAX(a,b)
(maxarg1=(a),maxarg2=(b),(maxarg1)>(maxarg2)?(maxarg1):(maxarg2));
void main(void){
float a,b,c,d;
a=1.0; b=2.0; c=3.0;
d=FMAX(b,1.0);
// print("%f", fabs(a)*FMAX(b,1.0)/c);
print("%f", fabs(a)*d/c);
}
Thanks
Gabi

i get the error in a different place.
% 8c -FVw t.c
t.c:7 syntax error, last name: maxarg1
> #define FMAX(a,b)
> (maxarg1=(a),maxarg2=(b),(maxarg1)>(maxarg2)?(maxarg1):(maxarg2));
the problem is the macro. adding a \ to escape \n or putting
the macro def on the same line fixes it.

Hello
That \n was inserted by this "intelligent" email client sorry.
The code compiles unless you uncomment the // print("%f",
fabs(a)*FMAX(b,1.0)/c);
Thanks
Gabi

it's still because of the macro: the ';' at the end
