learning

I am currently learning many things at the same time in C++ and coded many data structures and algorithms and some small applications. When I suddenly try to remember something that I coded many months ago, my mind completely goes blank. It's like I'll have to re-learn the whole thing.

For example, recently I was thinking to refactor my BST data structure, when I realized that I don't even remember how I coded it or how does it works internally.

Does this happen with many others? Or is it me only? How do I overcome this problem?

Objective-measures of the power of programming languages

Are there any objective measures for measuring the power of programming languages? Turing-completeness is one, but it is not particularly discriminating. I also remember there being a few others measures of power which are more limited versions (like finite-state-autonoma), but is there any objective… >>> More
