Talk:C trigraph

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I very much doubt that this phrase "replaces all occurrences" is correct (my emphasis). For example, it should not replace occurences of that sequence within strings.

It is correct.
Sadly. This is a prime example of design by committee

[edit] escape

Is the \? escape really standard, or just typical? Might there be a compiler that maps it to the 0xfe character or similar? AlbertCahalan 04:06, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

Standard. Akihabara 04:21, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] IOCCC

Should something be added about the more notorious uses of trigraphs (i.e. obfuscation)? Amcfreely 04:07, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Applicability

When were trigraphs introduced? Do they only apply to ISO C, for instance? Have any other languages adopted them? --82.46.154.93 03:38, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
