smallish feedback for ch. 4

smallish feedback for ch. 4

I've just started working through the examples, and I'm a bad person
for not having gone through the Python version yet, but here's a
smallish thing about ch. 4:

In 4.2, the implicit declaration warning we fixed in exercise 1 has
come back.  This isn't what I expect (and I really mean just *me*)
because my ex1.c source already has "#include <stdio.h>" from the last
exercise -- yes, pretty much what I said in the last sentence.  It's
small, but maybe worth mentioning?  Perhaps the expected state of
ex1.c should be shown prior to showing the `make` output?

Cheers,

You don't have to do LPTHW if you can already code in another language,
or if you think you can hack it.

Mentioned it.  Someone else said this so I put in an aside for it.
