They know, and they call it the C# type promotion rules. It can give "somewhat unexpected results" mentioned here,

Here is an open-access research article called "Thriving in a crowded and changing world: C++ 2006–2020". The author is no less than Bjarne Stroustrup, the founder of C++. Even if it is not a book,...

In exceptional situations, there is yet another option. You can mix C# and native C++ using C++/CLI as a bridge. At least in theory. I haven't done it, so I cannot vouch for it.

One of the main goals of both Java and its follow-up C# is to be resilient to programmer errors. For this reason, you cannot do things like &i and *p. Explicit references and pointers were deemed...

But the Knight's tour can be formulated as an optimization problem, so I guess my claim is wrong.

One can define the distance between two squares as the fewest moves it takes for the knight to go...

In my view, it can be a good thing to first go through the process of learning how to use the different individual tools involved in program development. Then when you start using an IDE you are in a...

Dynamic programming is an optimization method and as such is used when you are looking for what is best in some sense. It could be to find the shortest or the cheapest of something. But that does not...

The easiest way to be stupid as a programmer is trying too hard to be smart. Spending lots of time reducing a straightforward algorithm into something only Einstein could understand, to be able to...

The Wikipedia entry to Knight's tour,

It's even so that some IDE:s allow you to use more than one C++ compiler. For example, VS 2019 supports the use of both the Microsoft and the Clang C++ compilers.

You can create a union of these 3 types using std::variant. If you declare a variable of that union type, you can check which of the types is stored in the variable using std::visit. You will need...

An alternative to what 2kaud suggests is to go for an object-oriented design. In that case, you would replace T with a base class type. Then you would store objects of classes derived from the base...

You must specify the typename T of TableRow. Say you want it to be an int you do,



std::vector<TableRow<int>> row;

It is best to use the logical XOR operator != whereby



bool c = !(a^b);


becomes

I would use one of these, probably the first,


void checkTheState() {
const bool hasChanged =
(boolOne != boolOneCurrentState()) ||
(boolTwo != boolTwoCurrentState()) ||
......

Instead of excavating the past, you could go for something current,

In this case, you have a total of 52 balls in the urn. The chance of picking a blue is 50/52, and a red is 2/52. The total probability is 50/52 + 2/52 = 52/52 = 1 (the ball will always be either blue...

The link in my previous reply suddenly doesn't seem to work so I supply an example. It is based on the recipe: "Generating pseudo-random numbers" in Modern C++ Programming Cookbook, 2nd ed. by Marius...

If you have the possibilities 0.8, 0.1, and 0.1 you think of them as three intervals,

1: 0.0 <= x < 0.8
2: 0.8 <= x < 0.9
3: 0.9 <= x < 1.0

Then you draw a random float x between 0 and 1, for...

Well, according to the link in my previous post, according to the C++ standard, a reinterpret_cast should work,

"3) A value of any integral or enumeration type can be converted to a pointer type."...

As a last resort, there's always the reinterpret_cast,


wpAddress = reinterpret_cast<WORD*>(nAddress);

This problem is quite common and there are several ways to solve it,
