⚠️ I was reminded that the definitive source for all C documentation is in the man pages. For example, there is no explanation of the atoi before it is first used, but knowing that anything in the book is also covered in more depth in the Manual will help get over this missing information (without having to search the Internet).

Get on a Linux (Bash) command line. I chose to just use my PopOS desktop (which already has gcc 10.3 installed) but I also started making a Docker container to keep with modern development practices.

I set the CFLAGS so that make works by default without a Makefile at the moment:

export CFLAGS="-Wall -Wextra -Werror -O0 -g -fsanitize=address -fno-omit-frame-pointer -finstrument-functions"

I went ahead and added these to ~/.bashrc.
