C++ Language inline functions

[Andy Shim]

February 13, 2001

Dear C++ Language Expert:

I am interested to learn C++ Language. There is a store named the Microcenter,
in Fairfax, Virgina. The Microcenter sells a book with the title, "Microsoft
Visual C++ Language Version 6.0 Programmers Guide". Are you familiar with
this book? Should I purhase this expensive book to learn C++ Language?
I am looking for a job as a Junior Computer Programmer at the lowest level
using C++ Language in the Washington, D.C. area and the Arlington, Virginia
area if you have any information that can help me. I would prefer a federal
job.

Could you please give me an example of a function definition for an inline
function?

A student in C++ Language,

Andy Shim

inline int sum(int a, intb)
{
return(a+b);
}

compilers now inline "reasonable" routines for you, or explicitly like this
one. So its redundant for many modern compilers.

Many federal jobs are under UNIX still, so Visual may have limited use.
Linux is favored as is free, SGI IRIX is also popular from old days when
they had exponentially good graphics. Windows is used but knowing both will
help...
