@KevinMcKenzie unfortunately our system programmers do not seem to have right expertise to help us out and they gave us only binary files — acortis just now

MREs are a great tool. I can't speak for everyone answering questions here, but the reason I ask for them is MRE is actually a powerful debugging technique. If you didn't find and fix the mistake while making the MRE there's either a bit of information you don't have or you've got a question that's interesting enough to be worth preserving on the site for future programmers to learn from. Often both. — user4581301 58 secs ago

You might try Quora or Reddit. None of the Stack Exchange sites are suited for your first question, and your second is too broad as far as the recommendations go to post anywhere here either. SO is for specific questions related to programming (code) or use of programmers tools (IDEs, compilers, etc.). Note that use of is not the same as recommendations for. — Ken White 27 secs ago

You could use the provided format string to convert a small precooked dataset of strings into datetimes and check if the sequence of the result is as expected. That would also validate the supplied format string, which even seasoned programmers have been known to get wrong. — BoarGules 47 secs ago

Otherwise I would say that your question lacks detail. I would guess that .NET programmers who have used your specific library (wedll32.dll) aren't that many and the chance that one of the programmers who have used it would actually read this question is not that big. So, if you would like an answer you need to tell us more about what you have tried, where to find your dll and a link showing the vb5 example. It might be possible to port the vb5 code to vb.net. A good question is not something you need to spend tens of minutes googling to understand. — mortb 43 secs ago

Note that such questions about design principles and best practices are more clearly on-topic on softwareengineering. You could start by reading a few of the discussions there: softwareengineering.stackexchange.com/search?q=Law+of+Demete‌​r — Hulk 1 min ago

This is not a specific programming question. It does not qualify for the "concerns tools routinely used by programmers exception". It is hence off-topic. — Yunnosch 40 secs ago

This specific error happens when you use Scala 2.11 JAR files in Scala 2.12 projects. Scalatest is cross compiled with Scala 2.11 and Scala 2.12, so you can avoid this error by leveraging the SBT %% operator, as indicated in the accepted question. See my answer to learn more about the SBT %% operator and cross compilation, topics all Scala programmers must understand to avoid headaches. — Powers 43 secs ago

Please update the indentation of your code. Python is very sensitive to indentation, as are python programmers. — quamrana 42 secs ago

Conceivably, this seems like a logical usage of code question, not a software engineering question. With appropriate copy, as you detail, this comprehension is perfectly safe. Logically, this is the answer the OP asked for. — George Crowther 42 secs ago

Welcome to Stack Overflow. SO is a question and answer page for professional and enthusiast programmers. Please add your own code to your question. You are expected to show at least the amount of research you have put into solving this question yourself. — 0stone0 12 secs ago

To keep it short and simple, we as competitive programmers know the problems associated with global variables, include <bits..., etc. and we code accordingly. I believe this is better than just avoiding them without a proper understanding of why we do in software development. Anyhow, we have a multitude of reasons, here are a few I am aware of: 1- we don't write multi-file programs 2- each person/team are the only people who will maintain the code 3- we will maintain the code for just a few hours (the contest duration) 4- our codes are generally short 5- coding time is critical — Salman Elgamal 37 secs ago

Welcome to Stack Overflow. Please read Open Letter to Students with Homework Problems. You can't just dump your problem statement here and expect us to do it for you. It's also a good idea to take the tour, read about what's on-topic in the help center, and How to Ask. — Chris 40 secs ago

You might have better luck on softwareengineering.stackexchange.com. That said, if Vertex2d is not comparable to a VertexGeo (or vice versa), it does not sound to me like these are "the same" type of object and therefore it does not sound to me like you should use an interface. At least, not for comparison operations. — Ben P. 19 secs ago

Please note that Stack Overflow is for programming questions and not general computing issues. Also, asking for software recommendations is specifically off-topic.

I was forbidden to use nonstandard libraries and I can't use <vector> in this project, -- So the goal is to not create a memory game, it is to try and write dynamic arrays. This is why more and more programmers are dropping C++ and learning Java, JavaScript, Python, or some other language. It's silly restrictions like "you can't use vector", as if the program will automatically write itself if vector is used. — PaulMcKenzie 28 secs ago

If it stops at 64 bytes, the compiler programmers probably determined that the optimization doesn't provide much benefit after that. What makes you think that inlining more will actually be faster? — Barmar 44 secs ago
