Is relying on implicit argument conversion considered dangerous? Yeah, I just threw the code together to test out some of the gcc compiler options (which it doesn't look like there are any to address this particular case). I didn't look much further into it (I'm supposed to be working :-) but given gcc's adherence to the standard and the use of the explicit keyword a compiler option was probably deemed unnecessary. |

Prevent developers from using constants Right. But there's no way for the compiler to know the difference between which hard coded constant is good and which hard coded constant is bad. |

Flow Chart - While Loops process I would use consistent naming throughout. If a "frame" is more descriptive of what the data is I'd call it "frame" and forget the term "block" ever existed. |

Flow Chart - While Loops process It looks more correct to me. I can see each block/frame being processed without exiting prematurely. As @JohnR says in his comment though, there could be a better distinction between what a block and a frame is (if they are not the same thing). |

You're hired to fix a small bug for a security-intensive site. Looking at the code, it's filled with security holes. What do you do? The attacker could use the exploit to get the information on the structure of the database. No SQL injection vulnerability should ever be downplayed. |
