A backslash in C++

If you are programmer with not enough background with the language i don't thing that the best practice is to disable the coloring of the text. I think that the language itself it is not so easy to do such practice. And beside that coloring can save you hours of debugging in some cases like this for example. A enough experienced c++ / colorblind programmer can disable the coloring without lowering his or hers productivity.

When you become practised in the art then you simply hold your hands above the keyboard in supplication and the code writes itself out of fear of reprisals. :cool:

We didn't have IDE's on Unix systems when I started. I'm, what's the word I'm looking for? Oh yes, I'm old.

The compilers I've used give a warning in cases like this. JM2B,
Pablo. "Accident: An inevitable occurrence due to the action of immutable natural laws." (Ambrose Bierce, circa 1899). "You are to act in the light of experience as guided by intelligence" (Rex Stout, "In the Best Families", 1950).

I don't - I have "treat warnings as errors" set on my projects to prevent compilation succeeding! :laugh:

Oops! It was like this:
// Sometimes carry out the work \
if (flag)
{
SomeWork();
}That's a reason more to use K&R style (or a variation of it)!! :laugh:

That's the whole point: if you set "treat warnings as errors" then compilation fails until the warning is fixed. You can't run or test you app until you do.

And what about those hard core devs who swear by (instead of at) vi? My point wasn't that Notepad++ supports or does not support colourisation. It's that you can't rely on colourisation to indicate problems.

Hey, I like vi. There are parts of it that I wish were available in Visual Studio. dd for instance. Or 10dd to delete 10 lines. Yes, you can do this using other means in an IDE, but they are all more cumbersome.

I just make sure my code compiles without warnings. If I really cannot avoid a warning, I use a pragma to disable a specific warning, with an explanatory comment.

}That's a lousy attempt at obfuscation. Here's a real professional at work: IOCCC[^]. (That is a full hardware emulation of a 1980's PC hardware (much more info in the other files in this folder[^]. Some top aspects: It is 4043 bytes long (half an 8086). "It manages to implement most of the hardware in a 1980’s era IBM-PC using a few hundred fewer bits than the total number of transistors used to implement the original 8086 CPU." (edited for spelling)

Heh. I am not all that used to Vi(m), but this extension seems to be quite powerful.
