7/19    In C or C++, how do I write the code of a function with variable
        number of parameters in order to pass the variable parameters to
        another function that also has variable number of parameters?  Thanks.
        \_ The usual way (works on gcc 3.0+, Visual Studio 2005+):
               #define foo(fmt, ...) printf(fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__)
           The cool new way (works on gcc 4.3+):

10/29   C++ is so freaking BROKEN.  Augh!
        \_ Just use C.
           \_ Would if I could.
        \_ No, you are.  C++ works just fine, and far better than C for many
           purposes.
           \_ C vs. C++.  FIGHT!!!

4/13    How much C++/C knowledge do recent Berkeley CS/EECS grad have?
        \_ Class CSGrad inherits FromDaddy and does not implement C++Knowledge
           very well.
           \_ funny.  just the rich and poor as always.  the middle class can't
              afford education.
        \_ They know how to deal with pointers and addresses, malloc and free.

3/17    In Perl, how do I make variables have static types and type check
        for valid parameter/actuals? I realize that variables are untyped
        in Perl ($var can be 0.001 or "hello") but I'd like to have more
        strict checking so that errors would be caught ahead of run-time,
        Thanks,                                                 -java guy
        \_ use java.  Seriously.  You don't use perl if you want strong

11/21   All java class inherites from class *Object*, if I have three classes
        A, B, and C all have one same method showErr().  If I want to have a
        function that can call showErr() depending on the object that I passed
        in, eg.
                public void handleErr(Object o) {
                        o.showErr();
