Does this mean that there if c is char, there is no way to assign the
getchar and test it for EOF without having it cast down to char?

Or would "while (((int)c = getchar()) != EOF)" do it?

If so, would "while ((((int)(*c++)) = getchar()) != EOF)" cause improper
incrementation, access, both, or worse?
