Calling a C function without naming it
Original: Calling a function in C without naming it
A technical write-up circulating among programmers explains how to invoke a C function without referring to it by name, typically by working with function pointers or memory addresses directly. Readers are debating the trick's legitimacy, with some calling it a neat demonstration of how C works at a low level and others warning it is fragile and unsafe in real code.
Why now: Programmers enjoy low-level C tricks and the discussion touches on undefined behaviour and language internals.
