I'm sorry.  I was misled by the C inclusion
   #include <stdio.h>
where a C++ program would have
   #include <cstdio>

Are you a hater of C++, perhaps?
BTW, there is no mention of C++ in your code.  Using the C header rather 
than the C++ header and code that, apart from the one line I pointed 
out, looks much more like code a C programmer would write than that a 
C++ programmer would write.

Since your code is neither standard C nor standard C++, is there some 
reason I should assume your unlabeled C-looking code was intended to be C++?
