This while loop exits with "i" set to -1 and so then it sets:

	derived_table[-1] = derived_table[0] - 300;

There is no need for this assignment at all.  Just delete it.

Won't it exit with 'i' set to '0' ?

Wow.  You made me worried there.  I had to make a test case just to be
sure:

        int i = 10;

        while (i--)
                printf("in %d\n", i);
        printf("out %d\n", i);

Yep.  Ends on on -1.

I wrote a blog about this a few days back.

https://staticthinking.wordpress.com/2022/05/17/i-or-i/

I really think the most readable way is to say:

	while (--i >= 0)
		derived_table[i] = derived_table[i + 1] - 300;

Some people like while (i--) because it works on unsigned variables but
that doesn't apply here and "unsigned int i;" is dumb.
