    <p>This is the question on my homework and what the teacher expects as output...I am confused as to where to go from here I have included my code. My output is both the child process and parent process in the thousands</p> <pre><code>#include &lt;stdio.h&gt; #include &lt;unistd.h&gt; main() { /* Create three variables */ /* One to create a fork */ /* One to store a value */ /* One to use as a count control for a loop */ /* Initialize value variable here */ ; printf("Ready to fork...\n"); /* Create fork here */ if ( /* Condition to determine if parent */ ) { printf( "The child executes this code.\n" ); for ( /* Count control variable set to zero, less than five, incremented */ ) /* Value variable */ = /* What does value variable equal? */ ; printf( "Child = /* The ending value variable goes here */ " ); } else { for ( /* Count control variable set to zero, less than five, incremented */ ) /* Value variable */ = /* What does value variable equal? */ ; printf("Parent = /* The ending value variable goes here */ "); } } Here is the output from my program: Ready to fork... The parent executes this code. Parent = 3 The child executes this code. Child = 10 </code></pre> <p>This is what my code is</p> <pre><code>#include &lt;stdio.h&gt; #include &lt;unistd.h&gt; main() { /* Create three variables */ int frk; int val; int count; val=0; printf("Ready to fork...\n"); frk=fork(); if ( frk==0 ) { printf( "The child executes this code.\n" ); for (count=0; count&lt;5; count++ ) val = frk ; printf( "Child = %d\n",val ); } else { for (count=0; count&lt;5; count++ ) val = frk; printf("Parent = %d\n ",val); } } </code></pre>

    1. CO`if (frk=0)` - anything look "not C like" to you there?

    3. COIts not "syntax error" and still a valid C statement, but John already points to the typo mistake.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
