Solve that. If you can''t, then you dont know C++ well enough.

Well the notion that programming and anybody that knows alot about computers is a geek is largely a very wrong stereotype, I have a plethora of friends, have never been made fun of and am very much liked. I just keep my programming seperate from my everyday life AND it comes second, only when i have time will i program. I''m positive i''m not the only one.

and hey, bill gates wasn't even a geek realy... he was just EXTREAMLY devoted to programing. look at some of the people that started PCs they arn't geeks. they wern't then they arn't now. they ate cold pizza drank coke and programed... that was thier life, and if that means they were geeks I will eat my socks. (realy... I will!)

(compile-time power calculator)
template<int X, int Y>struct cp { static const int guard = static_cast<int>(Y != 1); // insert evil laughter here static const int r = X * cp<guard*X,Y-1>::r;};template<>struct cp<0,0> { static const int r = 1;}; int main() { std::cout << cp<2,12>::r << std::endl;}
