Scientists have discovered large pockets of something exists deep
within the Earth. Apparently it's come as a shock to many of them:

I explain the source of those pockets via the Solar System Assembly

Nope. Continental drift does not require the Earth to "grow in size". I stopped
watching your video as soon as you made this fundamental mistake. You also
claimed again that your solar system assembly line bullshit is a "theory": it
isn't a theory, it is a hypothesis at best and a deluded rant at worst. Your
wrongness is fractal in nature.

> Nope. Continental drift...
 
Continental drift is one component of what's happened in our Earth's
history. It's not the main component. It's a fairly recent component
as the size of the Earth is apparently fixed now, and has been for at
least hundreds of years. So the movement we see today is movement on
their isolated edges, but those edges come back to original lines which
grew and formed the creation of new sea floor as things spread out.
 
Going back far enough, the continents all came together.
 
I had the same teaching you did, Leigh. But I didn't just accept is as
gospel truth. When I later encountered evidence that the sea floor
shows signs the Earth grew, I investigated it and it's brought me to
this place.
 
The theory could still be wrong, but it hasn't been debunked yet.
People keep espousing things like you do, which also aren't proof.
They're just theories that are widely accepted.
 
And now we have Anton reporting that scientists have discovered
previously unknown pockets deep in the Earth. My response videos to
Anton explain what they are and why they're there.
 
God really is real, Leigh. There is evidence of Him in our own solar
system when viewed through the lens of increasing knowledge and
understanding.

So many assertions made without evidence that can be dismissed without evidence,
and summarily are so.
 
You have nothing but delusion; it is a sorry sight to behold.

That's why I state it's a theory. And why I'm asking for people with
real evidence and hard proof (Biblically or scientifically) to disprove
it, to point out something we know for a fact that makes it absolutely
impossible.
 
There isn't any such evidence so far. Just more theory, things we
believe, that contradict it.
 
So for now ... it remains a theory.

No, fucktard, as I have explained three times already, fucktard, theories
explain aspects of the natural world and universe that can be repeatedly tested
and verified in accordance with the scientific method; what you have doesn't do
that so you haven't got a fucking theory, what you have is a fruit loop
hypothesis that isn't in the slightest bit scientific.

Yes, there is.
 
That's because codeblocks (which I use a graphical frontend to gdb) says:
 
"Setting breakpoints
Debugger name and version: GNU gdb (GDB) 8.1
Child process PID: 6704
In ?? () ()
Cannot find bounds of current function
"
 
and itoa() function is not part of ANSI C standard as it is reported here:

Um, how is that relevant?

Why does ANSI C matter if you're writing C++? (If you're writing C, you
want comp.lang.c.)
 
itoa() isn't the only alternative to scanf(). In C, there's strtol()
and friends. And there are a number of C++ alternatives, some of which
have already been mentioned.
 
You can use C library functions from C++, but it's usually better to use
C++-specific functions unless there's some specific reason not to.

It is because if I cannot debug I need a way to print the status of a
variable on screen. And since GRX doesn't allow to print other things
other than strings of text, I needed a function to convert from
numerical format to text.
 
Do you think that this debugging message is due to the library built
from source (probably) without the debugging info?

Thank you for this alternative, I use just a few of C++ or C std
libraries, I have heard of that but I didn't think of it because the
first to spot in my mind was atoi() and its reverse, itoa().

I posted here on comp.lang.C++ because when I write C++ code this is the
place where I search for help. So this time, even if the project is
written in C, I didn't pay attention to which newsgroup to post into.

That's strange, because scanf() does not convert numbers to text, rather
it does the opposite.
 
For converting numbers to text there are functions like sprintf() and
std::to_string().

That was a fault of mine... I was expressing my needs but I wrote the
wrong function name.
 
And I do realize it only now. So it is now clearer the question of Mr.
K. Thompson asking me why to use scanf. I was still thinking to sprintf...
 
Anyway the problem is now solved. I have done what I was trying to do.
 
Here on the newsgrup the tone of the arguments is really high, I have
just rookie questions that I express even worse than that.
 
But I have to thank you all, because I've always found the right help.
