Then I wish for two more wishes.
Then I wish that wishes are an absolute value.
Then I wish for a million fewer wishes.
Then I wish for 65,536 wishes. The genie crashes with an integer overflow error.
There's no crash, you just go back to 0. Goodbye.
If
num_wishesis a signed int, wouldn't it overflow back to -65536? I suddenly owe the genie a bunch of wishes?All I have to offer is half a bowl of instant noodles, a lawnmower full of grass and toe nail clippings. So Genie, what do you wish for?
Nah, it doesn't crash, now you just have to perform 65,535 wishes for the genie.
