 		 #184235 - But 'C' is famous for that
Responding to: ???'s previous message
In order to allow programmers to do what they want, 'C' will compile programs that have no chance at all of becoming executable. Other HLL's aren't so forgiving, if you can call it that.

Of course, assemblers will assemble whatever you feed 'em, and produce the corresponding garbage-out, if they've been fed garbage-in. In the end, it's all up to the programmer.
