Hi @arindam-8 .

Here's a simple example, test.c:

int main
{
    a = 1;
}

1. Initially, I compiled it (gcc test.c) on an Ubuntu system without full-width single quotation marks (‘). The output was as follows:

   test.c: In function 'main':
   test.c:3:5: error: 'a' undeclared (first use in this function)
   3 | a = 1;
   | ^
   test.c:3:5: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in

   The In function 'main': in this case uses a half-width single quotation mark.

2. However, when I switched to an Ubuntu system with Chinese language support (which includes full-width single quotation marks ‘), and recompiled it (gcc test.c), the output changed to:

   test.c: In function ‘main’:
   test.c:3:5: error: ‘a’ undeclared (first use in this function)
   a = 1;
   ^
   test.c:3:5: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in

   The In function ‘main’:in this case uses a full-width single quotation mark.

I apologize for the previous commit, which was incorrect. I think the original -ve "In function ‘bug’:" should be retained, and we can add -ve "In function 'bug':" after it to enhance the robustness of the program.

There may be other string matching or similar changes that can enhance the robustness of the helper scripts. Feel free to contribute additional suggestions.

Hi, I noticed that this codebase has some inconsistencies with your paper.
For example, I couldn't find the actual delete operations in the code, which illustrated in your paper to delete sub-expressions from a given expression in a corpus program.

I list the mutator file you guys showed in this project:

utils-fuzzer
assignment-mutator
constant-mutator
delete-mutator
duplicate-mutator
expression-mutator
function-extractor
function-merger
jump-mutator
rename-transform
append-expression
extract-expression
global-extractor

I check the delete-mutator (about statement) and expression-mutator (about expand expression), and they are both Unrelated.

Could you please clarify the relationship between the 'mutator file' and the 'mutator operation' as described in your paper? I am particularly interested in understanding how these two components are connected. Thank you.
