Hmmm...I just realized I am a pretty old-fashioned programmer. But I guess that comes with working in C++ (as a better C). - One of my recent tasks was to implement a B-Tree and a Binary Tree. Also, I implemented merge-sort for another project. - Our company does create it's GUI from scratch. No drag-and-drop magic there either. - We use GOTO (sparingly). Mostly for error handling. - We have our own memory managers and do malloc/free (+new/delete). So manual memory management as well. - We have our own date conversion routines as well. - We use NULL terminated C-strings everywhere! - We do lots of things to make our code run faster. Some of these are probably strange! I don't know if the article is poor or I am out of date! Anyone else out there feel the same? In any case I would miss most of the above if I didn't have to do them.
