Hi Frank, I have been thinking about the use of macros such as EQ,
forever, NE etc, and I think you are doing yourself a disservice by
using these macros as a beginner C programmer. Here are some of the reasons:
You will find it less easy to read "normal" C code if you don't get used
to seeing *and quickly interpreting* things like != == for(;;)
You will find it more difficult to incorporate code that you find on the
web. You will have to either change all the == and != to use your
macros, or perhaps even worse, you will have a mixture of EQ and ==.
You will not be able to post snippets of code to forums without
replacing your macros. I wouldn't post weird code like that to any forum
even with an explanation for what the macros mean. The discussion would
almost certainly be more about the use of the macros than about whatever
question you were trying to ask.
