Thanks. Agree with most of that. Long names!! We have namespace TU = ThorsAnvil::Util; to cope with that.

@uli I did mention this under Short names. I don't think they could be mistaken for macros as it's pretty common to use single character names for template parameters (thanks Java!). Sometimes you can't be more specific than "a type" so you just use T.

There's one aspect you changed, but didn't mention explicitly, the use of C and G as names. One thing is that these single letters don't convey much information. Another thing is that these are ALL_UPPERCASE, so one could even mistake them for macros.

@user673679 They're the same thing. It's personal preference whether you use ptrdiff_t or std::ptrdiff_t. I personally don't see the point in the extra 5 characters.

Technically, it should be std::ptrdiff_t.
