just have a look in /usr/include/g++-v3 and u will find all of them
[/quote]He's not talking about STL lists.

Such a problem is usually used for functional programming, but I'll give you a structure, or rather a union, to work with.

Lists can be defined in the following way: they can contain any number of items, either of a specific type or any type, or (inclusive) contain other lists. For example, the following are lists in Scheme/LISP:

Code:

(1 5 9 2)
(8 3 (6 4))
((1 7) (0 2))

LC, you could write a program that loads in your pr0n pics and makes a slideshow out of them. But that would only work if you had some pr0n on your drive

We all know you dont have any.....

Actuallly my drive is 100% p0rn free right now, since I wipe it to install Mandy 9.0 beta1 on it later this week... my server has all my data now, and I give you my word no porn pictures on it at all.

;D Come on, just fucking with ya ;D

That actually is a stolen idea from a buddy of mine. When I got into Perl a few years back, thats what he suggested I try and do. It makes on learn something new (jpeg libs) and utilize the newfound skills. Of course, at that time, I was grabbing up tons of anime shit form online, so I ended up doing a replacement of pr0n with anime backgrounds to make a slideshow.

I need to train my C++ skills, anyone have any ideas for a good small project?

You can try the 'competitions' section from www.coderforums.net ... I went there when I wanted to start polishing my C skills, and tried doing some of the competitions (just haven't had time to finish any

) ... also, the mods (specially kmj) there are pretty good bout helping you out with giving you some practice projects if you need more to do than what's available on the competitions section.

Since C++ is object-oriented, I recommend something where object-oriented languages excell at. For instance, when I was learning C++, I started making a mud server. I never got finished with it, but I still learned a lot about object-oriented programming. It seems best suited for games. So just think of a game to program that includes characters, even if it's text-based.
