Q:Is the output for workshop 2 still suppose to be time or something else?
A:No, it is supposed to just swap the values of each variables passed to swap function and display them in the main function.

Q: Unsigned long longs are the same size as doubles. Currently, unsigned long longs are swapping just fine after being cast as doubles, but I was wondering if we were supposed to differentiate between the two. If so, how can you do it when the only argument is size?
A: I was trying to do this with a case for each data type, but we're supposed to cast the void* pointers as char*, and then swap the values byte-by-byte.

Q: How to determine the size of a structure?
A: Same as primitive types, use sizeof().
BUT - if there are pointers pointing to, say, strings, sizeof() will only count the sizes of these pointers (which is platform dependent, 4 bytes/pointer on Matrix). The actual size of these strings won't be counted.
