Homework: Function Templates

< Previous  Next >

---

For this homework assignment, submit a copy of hwkFunctionTemplates.cpp that has:

1. A templated add() function that takes two arguments, each of which can be a separate type, and returns the result of calling the + operator on the arguments. The return type should be the type of the first argument.
2. A call to add(), passing it answer and pi
3. A call to add(), passing it str1 and str2

No other changes should be necessary.

Your copy needs to compile on ranger using the following command-line:

g++  -std=c++0x  hwkFunctionTemplates.cpp

Finally, when your code is executed, the output must match what's in hwkFunctionTemplates-stdout.txt exactly:

45
Yeah, my templated function works!

Rubric:

Notes

1. You should verify that your output matches the above output exactly with the following commands on ranger:

   g++  -std=c++0x  hwkFunctionTemplates.cpp  -o hwkFunctionTemplates-yourlastname
   ./hwkFunctionTemplates-yourlastname  &>  hwkFunctionTemplates-yourlastname.txt
   diff  /nfshome/hcarroll/public_html/3110/private/hwk/hwkFunctionTemplates-stdout.txt  hwkFunctionTemplates-yourlastname.txt
