Dedication: To my friends and family, who help me to be the best Dummy I can be.
First words: I/O streams aren't part of the C++ language, per se. Rather, they are part of the Standard C++ library. I/O streams are implemented in C++ using standard C++ features such as operator overloading, but they are not a part of C... (show all)++ in the way that keywords such as class and for are. You can program in C++ your entire life and never use streams. (Whoa, wait a minute there, Red Rider. This is not an excuse to skip this part of the book, because the same can be said for printf() in C, as you'll see later in this chapter.)
Last words: (Click to show. Warning: May contain spoilers.)When all else fails, sleep on it. When I get to the point where I just can't make any progress on a really tough problem, I'm much better just walking away. While I'm sleeping (or eating or taking that long bike ride), my subconcious [sic] must be mulling over the problem because, when I return, I often jump right to the problem.
