I know that default template arguments cannot be used in function
templates but are default function parameters legal?
That is, is this:
----------------------------------
#include <functional>
template<class T, class C> bool count(T x[], C cmp = std::less<T>())
{
for(int i = 0; i < 9; ++i)
if(cmp([i], x[i + 1]))
return true;
return false;
}
----------------------------------
legal C++ code?
count(x, std::less<int>( )); // compiles ok, but
count(x); // gives "could not deduce template argument for 'C'"

Yes, but std::less<T> and std::less<T>() are values, not types, aren't they?
the former is a type, the latter is a value / object. sorry, i overlooked

Thanks for taking an interest in this.
I have had to abandon defaults here as I cannot find a way of making
them work. What has worked as a way of inling the comparison code (to
avoid the overhead of a function call) is:
template<class T> inline bool
lt_f(const T& x, const T& y) { return x < y; }
template<class T, bool C(const T&, const T&)>
bool count(T x[]) { ... C(x[j], x[i]) ... }
...
int q[10];
count<int, lt_f<int> >(q);
...
But I have had to build my own comparison templates in place of those in
<functional>.
Thanks again for your input.

Why doesn't C# allow default parameters for methods?
An argument against I hear often is that the default parameters would have
to be hardbaken into the assembly, but why? The Jit can take care of this,
if the code is jitted the
"push xyz" instructions of the actual default values can be inserted.
To make things simpler and better readable I'd make all default parameters
named parameters so that you can decide for yourself why one to...

I have a struct constructor to initialize all of my private (or public
