Your fictional dream school is in every city. Where a F goes to C-. And a C to a B-. I dunno if there are other grades. Its not easy.
What?
What? You don't know, professors are not free from flaws such as cheating. Students may be.

cross-platformis important because there are incompatibilities across app domains.
WHO is this directed at, why must you use obnoxious font sizes, and what does it have to do with the topic at hand?

It really depends on the design of both systems. You need to determine how integrated the other system is with all of its components. If it is not tightly integrated, then you could create some classes with the same interface that those components are expecting in order for them to work. Basically, it is impossible to say without closely examining the architecture of both systems to make that determination.
It is called cohesion and coupling for a system. Same as civil engineering.

You do the digging. I finished in the 90s.

I dunno does Intel compiler parse it or is it pre-processed. I dunno.
They're a mixture of straight typedefs (e.g. INT) and preprocessor macros (see my post above). You can dig through the SDK headers yourself or, if you're using Visual Studio, place the cursor in the middle of a symbol and hit F12 to find its definition. You may need to do this recursively to find the 'root'. Other IDEs probably have similar functionality.

And the problem with this is what, exactly? The WinMain signature has looked like that since time immemorial, and people have been writing programs using it for almost as long.

Yes. Because VC6 came with both a compiler and a standard library that were completely broken with respect to the burgeoning standard at the time -- sure, VC6 "worked" left to its own devices, and in some ways it was even "good" for the time, but code written against VC6 is necessarily broken and won't work without modifications on *any* other compiler, even the very next iteration of VC, and rightfully so. VS2010's compiler still maintains switches to enable *some* of the broken behavior of VC6 in order to ease porting, IIRC.

Seconding the forkbomb. I wrote up a very simple forkbomb just now that completely locked up the computer in less than five minutes. Only took 5 lines of code. It didn't suck up all the CPU, but it sure ate up the RAM quick enough...
