i believe the "->" usually points to an object member function of an
instantiated object.

It says to apply the method importStyleShee t to the object $proc.
importStyleShee t must be a method of the class to which $proc belongs.

This is absolutely basic OO stuff - if you're not familiar with it, and
you need to understand or work on some code that uses it, you're going
need to read up on it.
http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.oop.php (PHP4) and
http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.php (PHP5) explain how PHP
does OO, but I haven't found anything in php.net that explains the
concepts of OO.

I thought it might be useful to put the recent lambda threads into perspective a bit. I was wondering what lambda gets used for in "real" code, so I grepped my Python Lib directory. Here are some of the ones I looked, classified by how I would rewrite them (if I could): * Rewritable as def statements (<name> = lambda <args>: <expr> usage) These are lambdas used when a lambda wasn't needed -- an anonymous function was created with...

Does it mean "(sizeof(int))* (p)" or "sizeof( (int)(*p) )" ? According to my analysis, operator sizeof, (type) and * have the same precedence, and they combine from right to left. Then this expression should equal to "sizeof( (int)(*p) )", but the compiler does NOT think so. Why? Can anyone help me? Thanks. Best regards. Roy

Can we consider () unary operator when calling a function, in exps eq. f(), ( 1 + 2). But when we call function f( 10 ) it is a binary operator. Even if we pass f( 10, 20) as we are using , operator there one operand will be there for ()? And Unary operators like !, +, -, ~, ... are said to be having associativity right to left which means that we can write, (but not allowed) 1. 2! 2. !2

I know the basic definition of a sequence point (point where all side effects guaranteed to be finished), but I am confused about this statement: "Between the previous and next sequence point an object shall have its stored value modified at most once by the evaluation of an expression.

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: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
