    <p>I've created a very basic 'debugging' program that checks if a c source file has the same number of opening and closing curly brackets, square brackets and parentheses. I have a code that's fairly simple and it works but the code seems unnecessarily long. I was considering using arrays instead. An array to store each {,[,( and another to store },],) then counting the instance of each and comparing the amounts. But I think that code would be almost as long. What do you guys think?</p> <pre><code>#include &lt;stdio.h&gt; #include &lt;string.h&gt; #include &lt;stdlib.h&gt; int main(void) { FILE *fp; char fname[20]; char c; int curlybracket = 0; int curlybracketr = 0; int squarebracket = 0; int squarebracketr = 0; int parentheses = 0; int parenthesesr = 0; printf("Please enter the destination of the file: \n"); scanf("%s", fname); fp = fopen(fname, "r"); if (fp == NULL) { printf("Problem opening file!\n"); exit(0); } else { printf("File opened correctly\n"); } while (c != EOF) { c = getc(fp); if (c == '{') { curlybracket++; } if (c == '[') { squarebracket++; } if (c == '(') { parentheses++; } if (c == '}') { curlybracketr++; } if (c == ']') { squarebracketr++; } if (c == ')') { parenthesesr++; } } if (curlybracket == curlybracketr) { printf("There are an equal number of curlybrackets\n"); } else { printf("There is an unequal number of curlybrackets\n"); return 0; } if (squarebracket == squarebracketr) { printf("There are an equal number of squarebrackets\n"); } else { printf("There are an unequal number of squarebrackets\n"); } if (parentheses == parenthesesr) { printf("There are an equal number of parentheses\n"); } else { printf("There are an unequal number of parentheses\n"); } return 0; } </code></pre>

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.
