I looked at the first block of code of the article when the page loaded and thought "Hey! That's pretty expressive for C++- It's almost as compact now as Haskell for a mandelbrot program!" ...then I realized that it was only a baroque type declaration and that scrolling down the page reveals tons of additional code blocks... and those aren't actually all the code. (C++ is still a great language for many problem domains... Code brevity/elegance is not its strength however.)
