Print a number 100 times without using loop, recursion and macro expansion in C?

It is possible to solve this problem using loop or a recursion method. And we have already seen the solution using #define directive (Macro expansion) but what if all three are not allowed? A simple solution is to write the number 100 times in cout statement. A better solution is to use concept of Concept of setjump and longjump in C. 

CPP

// CPP program to print one 100 times.
#include <iostream>
#include <setjmp.h>
using namespace std;

jmp_buf buf;

int main()
{
    int x = 1;

    // Setup jump position using buf
    setjmp(buf);
    cout << "1"; // Prints 1

    x++;
    if (x <= 100)

        // Jump to the point setup by setjmp
        longjmp(buf, 1);

    return 0;
}

Output :

 100 times 1.

Time complexity : O(n) 
Auxiliary Space : O(1)

The same can be written for C also. This article is contributed by Aditya Rakhecha.
