Code It Yourself: Generate All the Combinations from Several Collections
A Cartesian product consists in applying a function to all the possible combinations of the elements of several collections. For example, consider the three following collections: auto const inputs1 = std::vector<int> {1, 2, 3}; auto const inputs2 = std::vector<std::string>{"up", "down"}; auto co...
A Good Way to Handle Errors Is To Prevent Them from Happening in the First Place
Error handling often leads to unclear and incorrect code. By asking one simple question, we can often get away without handling errors in our code.
Design Patterns VS Design Principles: Visitor
This article explains the Visitor design patterns, and shows how it can bring high cohesion to your classes.
Which Programming Paradigm Gives the Most Expressive Code?
Since the beginning of programming our views have been shaped by a handful of paradigms. Which one is the best to write expressive code? And is there a definitive paradigm? This is what we discuss in this article.
