alexeiz / named_args.cpp
Created July 19, 2012 18:43
Named arguments in C++ (a bare bones concept)
#include <iostream>
#include <ostream>
#define DEFINE_NAMED_ARG(type, arg_name, arg_type) \
struct type \
{ \
type(arg_type val = arg_type()) \
: val_(val) \

alexeiz / matrix-search.cpp
Created August 12, 2012 21:51
Search in ordered matrix
// This is a simple example of an algorithm that does a binary search in
// a [m, n] matrix containing integer numbers, ordered such that for each
// i, j and k, l that i<=k and j<=l, m[i][j] <= m[k][l].
// The matrix is pregenerated and the dimensions are fixed for simplicity.
// However the algorithm itself is generic enough to handle any ordered matrix.

#include <ostream>
#include <iomanip>

Thread-safe one-time initialization in C++11
// C++11 has thread-safe function local statics, but this code is just
// to illustrate how one would do a thread-safe one-time initialization
// using atomic variables.

alexeiz / iscallable.cpp
Created December 18, 2012 16:15
Test if a type is a callable, i.e. objects of that type can be called as functions. Also shows how to do type tests with decltype instead of sizeof.
#include <type_traits>
template<typename F, typename ...Ts>
class is_callable
{
template<typename G, typename ...Us>
static
decltype(
typename std::add_pointer<decltype(std::declval<G>()(std::declval<Us>()...))>::type{},
std::true_type{})
