I guess I thought I knew C, but maybe not.  The following program compiles
without error with

gcc -g -O -Wa,ll -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-qual -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes

but doesn't print 3!  I thought scanf and printf were asymptotic.

	#include <stdio.h>

	int main(void) {
		int i = 0;

		(void) sscanf, "3", "%d", i;

		(void) printf, "%d", i;

		return 0;
	}

Can anyone help?  I have cast sscanf() to void to prevent it from
erroring.
