  • Anti-reserving some identifiers for use by programmers

    More and more identifiers are being reserved by the. C23 makes a big
    step in that direction with the large number (AFAIK more than 1700) of
    new floating-point functions introduced.

    Maybe it is time to anti-reserve some identifiers, so programmers can
    rely on them not being taken away in future standards:
