Weird dreams when I'm learning C++

I remember having to rush to complete this one programming project. I stayed awake all night for three days so it would be finished. Luckily, I turned it in, but I woke up a lot for the next few days in a sweat shouting "I need to finish it!". :/

I also remember this one time in a dream that my compiler wasn't working correctly with this:

if ( ( 7 + 8 ) == 15 ){    ....}


and 7 + 8 never equaled 15! In my dream I would pull out this huge piece of paper trying to understand the formula in which 7 + 8 would not equal 15. I didn't sleep well those nights either.
Holy crap, you can read!
#define if(x) if(!(x))

Just lol.
That's very common and seems to happen for anything that requires intense mental effort especially when that's something we've just started learning or not done in a long time. Other possible triggers are strategy games like chess or go, maths, learning a new language (human language not programming), etc
