You're a joke.

You can't do it, either.  ALL you could EVER deliver is a plagiarized 
example from the GMP documentation.

Another vague claim you'll NEVER deliver on.

Melzzzzz is gone, but he whipped your silly ass up one side and down the 
other when it came to assembler.

So are your ridiculous lies and boasts.

You are NOT a competent programmer, in ANY language.

* you ran away screaming from many simple string challenges in C.

* you ran away mewling from a simple directory reading challenge in C.

* you ran away wimpering from a challenge to summarize .csv files in C.

* you ran away crying from a challenge to download the latest
   ['tar.gz', 'tar.xz', 'tar.bz2', 'tar.lz', '.zip'] files from each
   directory at http://mirror.rit.edu/gnu/


You're a lying, blustering fraud.

STFU and pay Mom the rent.
