Hidden features of C

Answer 1

anonymous structures and arrays is my favourite one. (cf. http://www.run.montefiore.ulg.ac.be/~martin/resources/kung-f00.html)

setsockopt(yourSocket, SOL_SOCKET, SO_REUSEADDR, (int[]){1}, sizeof(int));

or

void myFunction(type* values) {
    while(*values) x=*values++;
}
myFunction((type[]){val1,val2,val3,val4,0});

it can even be used to instanciate linked lists...
