    enum months { Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr,
                  May, Jun, Jul, Aug,
                  Sep, Oct, Nov, Dec };

    What are the values represented by the following enum names?

    enum tag { name1,
               name2 = 10,
               name3,
               name4 };

    Which statements in the following are equivalent in the variable declaration?
        typedef long int BYTE32; BYTE32 x, y, z;
        typedef char *STRING[16]; STRING str1, str2, str3;
        long int x, y, z;
        char *str1[16], *str2[16], *str3[16];
    Can you pass some command-line arguments to a main() function that has the following definition?

    int main(void)
    {
       . . .
    }

Exercises

    Write a program to print out the values represented by the enumerated names declared in Quiz question 2.
    Given the following declarations:

    typedef char WORD;
    typedef int SHORT;
    typedef long LONG;
    typedef float FLOAT;
    typedef double DFLOAT;

    write a program to measure the sizes of the synonyms to the data types.

    Rewrite the program in Listing 18.4. This time, add integers starting at the value of MIN_NUM instead of the value of MAX_NUM.
    Write a program that accepts command-line arguments. If the number of command-line arguments, not including the name of the executable itself, is less than two, print out the usage format of the program and ask the user to reenter the command-line arguments. Otherwise, display all command-line arguments entered by the user.
