gollark: Wondrous. Such safety.
gollark: ```c#include <stdio.h>union ApioData { float apio; int apiobee; char apioform[22];} ;int main() { union ApioData data; data.apio = 3.0; printf("%d", data.apiobee);}```
gollark: Fine. I will hackerize the TIORUN™ servers?
gollark: tio!debug
gollark: ```cunion ApioData { float apio; int apiobee; char apioform[22];} ;int main() { union ApioData data; data.apio = 3.0; data.apioform = "bees bees bees"; printf("%f", data.apio);}```
