Coding standards
CERT INT33-C

(Required) No reliance shall be placed on undefined or unspecified behavior.

MISRA C:2012 Rule-1.3

(Required) There shall be no occurrence of undefined or critical unspecified behaviour

Code examples

The following code example fails the check and will give a warning:

#include <stdlib.h>
int foo(void)
{
  int a = 20;
  int p = rand();

  if (p == 0)   /* p is 0 */
    a = 34 / p;

  return a;
}

The following code example passes the check and will not give a warning about this issue:

#include <stdlib.h>
int foo(void)
{
  int a = 20;
  int p = rand();

  if (p != 0)   /* p is not 0 */
    a = 34 / p;

  return a;
}
