1st project Identifiers can't be C reserved keywords (both)

5:25pm Thu 19th Sep, Allan W.

So the answer to this seems obvious but anyhow: It would be reasonable to assume we won't be tested on identifier names which are reserved keywords in C, right? E.g. we would never get an identifier called "int" or "return" or "struct"... Putting reserved keywords as variable/function names in the translated C file would likely create errors, and the code would fail to compile.

This is a reasonable assumption. Make sure to put it in your assumption doc.
