In May the FORs leave you alone we replaced manual loops with calls to algorithms. For this we did not use the algorithms provided by the standard library but used boost.Range instead. In this post I’ll give you the rationale for that decision and introduce the transformed adaptor into the linear regression example.
May the FORs leave you alone
In his post may the FORs be with you, Michael mentioned that it’s best to avoid handwritten loops at all. This is not self explanatory for a lot of people, and while many arguments can be put forth to support the use of algorithms, in this post let’s stick with one: readabilty.
