+SoLvEd+ How to remove wrong approved quiz?

I have posted a quiz and now I believed my answer is not entirely correct. The breakdown : https://code.sololearn.com/cJ4rXBsdnwQs/?ref=app Thanks Omkar for bringing this issue into my attention : https://www.sololearn.com/post/80809/?ref=app

Contact info@sololearn.com. I mean, you did answer to this question, but I guess your answer applied to quizzes which haven't been accepted yet? https://www.sololearn.com/Discuss/1712971/?ref=app

It only initializes the array to 0's if it's static or thread storage or use a {} that is smaller than the array itself, which it is neither in the quiz's case.

int a[10]; // a contains garbage static int a[10]; // static storage, a is all 0's int a[10]{}; // aggregate initialization, a is all 0's int a[10]{ 1,2,3 }; // same as previous, first 3 elements are 1, 2 and 3 and the rest is initialized with 0's thread_local int a[10]; // thread storage, a is all 0's. This is C++ though, not sure the C equivalent.

~ swim ~ I think if you do {} on an aggregate type it's an aggregate initialization, like with int a[10]{}; list initialization is I think for those types that take an std::initializer_list in it's constructor. Don't quote me on that, I'm not sure either. Confusing for sure, but the C++ standard mentions aggregate initialization "N4594 § 8.5.1 [dcl.init.aggr]". I know it's not C but it's probably the same there.

Calviղ At step of 3, The array a is not initialized at a[8], it must have displayed 0 when I submitted the quiz. However, it is displaying junk values on my device now. While the key of non assignment is demonstrated, unstable result is wrong result.

Only for non standard C, it would not initialise unassigned values. So with C standard, your quiz is still correct.

Calviղ I see 36 printed in my code snippet, so sololearn C is non standard C?

Dennis Can you kindly furnish us with an example for static, thread storage and using {} respectively?

According to this https://stackoverflow.com/a/32708288 C standard would initialise all unassigned arithmetic values to zeros.
