I'm going to be attempting my most challenging programming task to date
and was wondering if I could get some input on what would be the most
efficient way of working with stock price quote data for an entire
order book. I'm working with a raw text data stream that delivers
quotes in realtime for each price level with the quantity of shares,
the ID of the exchange that is honoring the quote, and the side of the
market it is on. For instance, a typical feed might look something like
this:
Symbol, Side, Price, Shares, ID
XYZ, S, 33.02, 100, ARCA
XYZ, B, 33.01, 200, NYSE
XYZ, B, 33, 1000, NYSE
XYZ, S, 33.02, 0, ARCA
A quote is deemed as having been removed from the book when a share
size of 0 is received, as in the last quote received above.
I'd like to have the data sorted into two containers (bidSide and
askSide) by price into an order book in realtime... but I'm having a
difficult time deciding on the best way to do this due to the fact that
it should be the most efficient design possible regarding speed. If
anyone has some experience with this type of data or could suggest a
possible route (lists, maps, or, etc.?), it would be hugely appreicated
as I'm definitely taking on a bit more than I can chew.
Many thanks,
Lorn Davies

1. Since you don't have a question about C++ /per se/ posting in
news:comp.progr amming would be vastly more appropriate.
2. Given your description above, what happens if there are multiple
orders for the same price on the same exchange -- and *one* (no way to
know which one, eh?) gets zeroed out?
3. This is homework, isn't it?
4. Look up `priority queue'. GIYF.
HTH,

I have a 'master' stock list with current stock levels (integer) and
another table that contains transactions (i.e. item#, #items added/

accordingly. I've created an 'update query' and put in the

The company receives the merchandise from a handful of suppliers and stocks it before it is sent to the customers – retail outlets.
The company works on a concession basis – i.e. the customers do not pay for the delivered goods but sell it on and then take a percentage of the sales. The goods delivered to the retailers can be considered to be “in stock” at the...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
