Illustrate the differences between IDB and UB early on.

  Beg your pardon?

    If you don't know what UB or IDB is, you probably don't want to write a book pertaining to C, :)

      Context specific. Could be intel debugger, could be undefined behavior, could be implementation defined behavior. I tested them on a group of about 15 C devs, mixture of embedded, linux, DSP, and other volken. Got the same guesses I made and a lot of question marks. It's easy to run your mouth but not actually contribute, you might consider your role in this process before commenting again.

        I don't think C defines an intel debugger.

        So, contextually, we're referring to C here, wherein these terms refer to Implementation Defined Behaviour, and Undefined Behaviour. Allowing beginners to understand such terms early on would help, immensely.

          Sure, if they have a copy of the standard sitting on their desk.

            I can see that this book is going to be a great success, already. :)
