5-Language Cheat Sheet

M

Martin Rinehart

I'm preparing a cheat sheet for, alphabetically, C++, Java,
JavaScript, Python and Ruby. I'm reasonably good with the last four
(which means really good with none of them). Save for a "Hello,
World!" over the weekend, C++ has not been part of my life since 1995.

a) where is the official doc?

b) where should I put the cheat sheet? (So far I've got comments,
reserved words, fundamental data types and identifiers.) Would a blog
be of interest?

c) is this a good place to discuss this, or is there a better C++
forum?

Thanks for your help. (And please, if you don't see that each of these
five has something to be said for it, I really don't want to hear from
you.)

The official doc is the ISO standard. Beware, for it is not free, you
actually have to buy it.

I thought the drafts were free... The last 2003 draft was called
n1316, but it seems to be password protected on the ISO website.
So maybe I'm wrong.

There's also a version, n1905, which you can download (just
google n1905). Not sure what the exact differences are.
But I wonder now if it's supposed to be distributed, or if
it's an oversight. Anyone (coughPeteBeckercough) know?

A draft of the upcoming standard, however, _is_ available from
Bjarne's page

Look for the link "final committee draft standard"

Frankly, I
would not read a blog about C++, because this newsgroup completely
satisfies my daily need for interesting C++ discussions on a highly
professional level.

Hm, I think e.g. this blog is pretty interesting:


"Word Aligned" -- Thomas Guest
<url: http://wordaligned.org/>


As well as the blogs referenced from my blog's blog roll call (just haphazardly
collected from visits/comments/discovery):


"Recording a programmer's thoughts" -- Alan Ning
<url: http://askldjd.wordpress.com/>

"C++ on a Friday" -- Anders Schau Knatten
<url: http://blog.knatten.org/>

"C++ Next" -- Dave Abrahams and Doug Gregor
<url: http://cpp-next.com/about/>

"Geektalk" -- Olve Maudal
<url: http://olvemaudal.wordpress.com/>

"Gennaro Prota's blog" -- Gennaro Prota
<url: http://gennaroprota.wordpress.com/>

"Sutter's Mill" -- Herb Sutter

Cheers,
