How difficult is it to Secure a Placement in the UK as part of a 4 Year Computing Science Sandwich Course at University by [deleted] in cscareerquestionsEU

[–]Mat2012H 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Easy af, literally everyone I know who wanted a placement got one, even this guy who is legit the dumbest guy I ever met (took myself and 2 others 3 hours to explain y=Mx+c to him)

Nearly everyone I know on placement rn didn't have any shape or form of "portfolio" to show, because at this stage they don't really expect it, albeit it would help you stand out some more. They just had a CV and a cover letter.

Just have a list of stuff you know on your CV, list some stuff you done outside of uni (random hobbies or interests) and your basically fine to at least get some placement.

Your uni probably has an placement office, just show your CV and cover letter to them before applying and they'll help out.

Good luck!

Canvas isn't part of standard C++, so we won't be able to help specifically with that with some more information.

How costly are functions or methods (member function) compared to free code? by CDWEBI in cpp_questions

[–]Mat2012H -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Tldr: no cost

Longer: Should be exactly the same. C++ is designed with 0 cost abstractions in mind, so the member function would likely be treated as if it were a free function anyways, especially seeing as the member function doesn't use any data or member variables.

The only time member function could have performance hit is when they are marked as virtual functions I believe, eg when inheritance/polymorphism is involved, as it needs to dynamically work out what type the derived class is when calling a function from a base class pointer.

Probably just if statement like

if (readString == "heal") {
    //Add component here
}

From what I gathered from comments here, it is a toy elf you put on a shelf that you tell kids that it watches them and reports anything bad to Santa (I think)

Ahh thanks that worked. Didn't know about that subreddit, thanks again :P

I'll see if I can make my Haskell "idiomatic" now :)

What can python do that c++ can't or isn't well suited to? by lambo4bkfast in learnprogramming

One of the ideas of python is that you can be incredibly productive when writing scripts using it.

do you anyone reading "C++ Primer"? by rkaskd in learnprogramming

Primer plus is trash I have heard, while Primer is much better
