Recursive Quotation Mark Solution

In an interview I was asked Print a quotation mark using the printf() function I was overwhelmed. Even in their office there was a computer and they told me to try it. I tried like this: void main() { printf("Printing quotation mark \" "); } but as I suspected it doesn't compile. When the compiler gets the first " it thinks it is the end of string, which is not. So how can I achieve this? #include <stdio.h> int quot(int c) { if (c == '"') { return c; } else return quot(c+1); } int main(void) { printf("Printing quotation mark %c \n", quot(0)); }

A programmer is asked to print a quotation mark using the printf() function. Instead of escaping the character, they write a recursive C function that searches through character codes until it finds a quotation mark, humorously overengineering a trivial task and embodying cringe coding.
