> How does it look? Not so good. 1. Not thread safe. 2. Does not handle negative numbers well. 3. Forms `""` with 0. 4. Prone to buffer overflow. A test harness int main(void) { char buf[100]; int test[] = {123, 456, 0, - 42, INT_MAX, INT_MIN}; int n = sizeof test / sizeof *test; for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) { itoa(test[i], buf); printf("%-11d <%s>\n", test[i], buf); } return 0; } Output 123 <123> 456 <456> 0 <> -42 <,.> 2147483647 <2147483647> -2147483648 <./,),(-*,(> ----------- > It is not thread-safe due to the static, but is that an issue for a function such as this? Yes. Thread safety is expected. ---- > If so, how could I update that? What other ways could I make improvements to it? ... Later
