Be Confused to Solve Confusion.

The solution shall arrive...

Of late, my newsgroup activities have increased. I am a member of comp.lang.c, Uttara groups, and C_Spice. Following are few links to questions which I found useful in enrichment of my knowledge. Of course, I will keep updating this page. Note: Text version is considered as up-to-date. This page will be updated once a week.
