".. then you produced a stack overflow vulnerability and we write you a recommendation letter to Microsoft." ROFL
Really great lectures, it is really good for people learning the little problems of programming and how to begin solving a problem! Thumbs up.

wonderful lectures, had problems doing sudoku assignment in java, and this helped me a lot



Someone should give an update to this professor. Stack overflow attacks are "not" an issue any longer, ever since Intel introduced NX feature.

hi darijo, thanks for your comment. i think we'd all love it if a simple change at the chip level could remove the problem of buffer overflows and perhaps even mem vulns in general! With the low level memory flexibility C give us comes great responsibility, sadly not fully appreciated by many c programmers. (if you remain unconvinced google "stack overflow advisory 2009"...) keep up the sceptical thinking tho, it is good to see.
