The begining of my STL knowledge
Finished my first DSA (Data Structures and Algorithms) homework tonight. It consisted only of STL programming, with no special algorithms involved.
It has been a tough start because of several things. The most annoying thing was the fact that I had to correct the notes I took at faculty, after experiencing some errors. The main reason for their appearance was the fact that I have never worked with STL before and I couldn’t check at the same time what I was taught. The introduction into STL we had was missing some #includes at least. Besides this, in my search to gain some more STL knowledge that I was taught (it was obvious that it hasn’t been enought), I found out a better way of solving my first homework than the one sugested at the course.
This was also my first program in KDevelop. I found some nice features of it that made it act really professional. I haven’t figured out yet how autocompletion works for class members (typing “.” or “->” after an object variable). The strange thing is that it autocompletes everything, including the words in the comments, the variables etc. One thing that really helped me was the integrated documentation interface (I had the feeling that it came with the documentation, but found later that docs were actually online - it didn’t bother me since I have a permanent Internet connection).
