Assuming this was a job interview, I suggest you stay away from any job that asks foolish questions like this. I would not want to work for a company that want it's programmers to use tricks that make code unreadable.

You can always put the call to printf in an if-statement, like this:
c Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
  1. #include <stdio.h>
  2.  
  3. int main(void)
  4. {
  5.     if( printf("Hello World!\n") ) {}
  6.     return 0;
  7. }
As you can see, no semicolon is needed to invoke the printf function.

Quoted for the truth.
