... On the other hand, our variables are package variables, and thus automatically: global variables definitely not private not necessarily new can be accessed outside the package (or lexical scope) with the qualified namespace, as $package_name::variable. Declaring a variable with our allows you...

...of a 1D array is still a 1D array! (If you're used to matlab, it fundamentally doesn't have a concept of a 1D array. Matlab's "1D" arrays are 2D.) If you want to turn your 1D vector into a 2D array and then transpose it, just slice it with np.newaxis (or None, they're the same, newaxis is just mor...

...his is also a problem for square brackets and braces, even though those usually occur as balanced pairs.) You can enclose the macro argument in parentheses: FOO((std::map<int, int>), map_var); The problem is then that the parameter remains parenthesized inside the macro expansion, which pr...

I tend to declare as static all the methods in a class when that class doesn't require to keep track of internal states. For example, if I need to transform A into B and don't rely on some internal state C that may vary, I create a static transform. If there is an internal state C that I want to be ...

...ur own queue, just use the inherited one. If you do as you do, you can actually do nothing else with the queue values, all other functions but your new Enqueue will still call the original queue. In other words, although this answer is marked as accepted, it's completely and utterly broken. ...

... that every reference type gets this extra state in its space that is typically undesired. A string variable could be any sequence of characters, or it could be this crazy extra null value that doesn't map into my problem domain. A Triangle object has three Points, which themselves have X and Y va...

I run across many shell scripts with variables in all caps, and I've always thought that there is a severe misunderstanding with that. My understanding is that, by convention (and perhaps by necessity long ago), environment variables are in all-caps. ...
