TIL: initialize an array with uniform values in C

Sometime I admire C and then in the next moment I want to die out of frustration. Immutable strings are a gift from the gods by the way. I can only now appreciate them properly. It’s a shame that C does not have them.

So back to the topic. This is such a great syntactic sugar. When you want to initialize an array with a uniform value you can do the following:

char my_string[30] = {0};

/* Or for pointers */
char *my_string_array[30] = { NULL };
