Would C# programmers have any trouble understanding what uint32 etc. are? Whereas, although having long experience with C++, I still feel I always have to reach out for the particular OS's docs to find out what are the specific lengths, again? (For unsigned long, etc.) In other words, I believe explicit naming like uint32 is just universally trivial and ergonomic (including for C# programmers), while short etc. is kinda probably ergonomic for experienced C# programmers (I suppose beginners don't remember it well yet, and also have to consult the manual), while strictly wasting time and brain cycles for programmers coming from other languages :( Please — like, pretty please!...
- arethuza 8y agoProbably not as in C# things like int, uint, long etc. are actually aliases for types like System.Int32, System.UInt32, System.Int64...
