My coworkers and I had fun with this one, devised by yours truly. It is
not a program, but a question:
For what, if any, subexpressions `p' do the expressions
*(p)
and
(p)[0]
not have identical meaning?
This is not a trick question, and in particular is not a syntactic trick
question. The obvious parses are the correct ones.
There's no point in posting the answer immediately. Someone should
eventually, I suppose.
