@alvaro that would not work, as printf () is not a boolean expression, so it can not be evaluated to true or false

Try writing each sentence in an if sentence. if(printf("Hi there")) {} Not very useful, though. Oh BTW, it's not my idea... just google it and you'll find a ton of alternatives.

It works actually, because if(printf(...)) makes use of the fact that printf is a function that returns an int value, which can be coerced into a boolean value, and thus interpreted by the if clause: "[printf] Return Value If successful, the total number of characters written is returned. On failure, a negative number is returned." https://www.tutorialspoint.com/c_standard_library/c_function_printf.htm
