Even though his PhD thesis was

what functions where provided as standard libraries, so he always ended
up writing his own functions instead of using libraries.

 
Was he not able to keep some reference docs handy? For example, I rarely
get very far in working on Python code without having this page
<https://docs.python.org/3/library/> open in a browser.

Sorry, I don't know. I only know that he told me he was
unable to remember what the standard libraries on Amiga
offered. So he did much unnecessary duplication of code
writing the functions himself.

I have never owned Commodore Amiga and I have no
knowledge about its C compilers or the related
documentation.
