No, hardcoded would be if you removed this line of code:
                  case 'a':     addr = strtol(optarg, 0, 16); break;
What he's got is called a *default value*.
If you can't tell which is which, it might be a good idea to not bring it
up any further.  If you're going to try to insult somebody by accusing them
of something (like "hardcoding"), you could either do the world a favor and
make sure you understand the meaning of the accusation, or be *creative*:

Senator George Smathers about half-way down).
(Hints for the unclued:  Try getting your code to run with a different value
than '1700' without either recompiling or using a hex editor.  Then get his code
to run with a different value using '-a'.  Then read this:

and let us know when you've figured it out....)
