• Preparing for the Future

Besides programming techniques, mathematics, and so on, it is also the small useful tips that can often help a programmer out. Here you will find small samples that can easily be put to use. Some tips make the programmer's job easier; others specifically help determine system and development environment dependencies. The second half of this chapter focuses on keeping sources compatible and portable for future use in different projects and on different systems. This allows you to write your sources in such a way that reusing them in different environments becomes easier, often without the need of added development time.
