  • A C puzzle demonstrates a URL within code that compiles successfully.
  • The URL 'https://susam.net/' is interpreted as a label 'https:' followed by a comment '//susam.net/'.
  • C99 standard allows '//' for comments, making the URL syntactically valid in C code.
  • The puzzle's solution reveals how compilers parse labels and comments, not URLs.
