FDA officials estimate the collection was assembled between 1946 and 1964 by government scientists.
Tell me again what role Obama had in this?
Take a look at "The art and science of programming" by Donald Knuth, it's examples are in Pascal but if you inhale the wisdom in the book you will understand when I say that the language it uses is irrelevant.
Just in case this confuses the submitter, the actual title is "The Art of Computer Programming". And IIRC the code examples aren't in Pascal, but rather in "MIX" assembly, which is a hypothetical language for a hypothetical machine. Also, be forewarned that it has a steep learning curve...
Not sure if I'm missing the joke here (if so, apologies), but just because the book title is "Exceptional C++" doesn't mean the whole thing is about exceptions.
Exceptions are covered for a few chapters in that book, but some of the recommendations aren't really relevant anymore; C++11 deprecated many of the problematic parts of exceptions (e.g. exception specifications), and much like valarrays, no one really used them anyways
