long doubles


int main(void)
{
    long double test = 1;
    test <<= 1E1L;
    return 0;
}

test@test:~/test$ gcc -ansi -pedantic -Wall -O0 -o test test.c
test.c: In function ‘main’:
test.c:35:7: error: invalid operands to binary << (have ‘long double’ and ‘long double’)

So there is no way I can bit-shift the damn long double's?

From the K&R:
"5.3 Pointers and Arrays

In C, there is a strong relationship between pointers and arrays, strong enough that pointers
and arrays should be discussed simultaneously. Any operation that can be achieved by array
subscripting can also be done with pointers. The pointer version will in general be faster but,
at least to the uninitiated, somewhat harder to understand."
