'2.0 * pi' is a logical expression. '2.0 * seconds' is not and I can't imagine how anyone can think such an expression is "good design".
Ideally we'd have more 'squiggles' for more operators, but the ASCII char set doesn't permit this - C++ has used them all already. Blame it all on paper tape ;-) Paul --- Paul A Bristow Prizet Farmhouse, Kendal, Cumbria UK LA8 8AB +44 1539561830 & SMS, Mobile +44 7714 330204 & SMS pbristow@hetp.u-net.com
