I have a set of three values, call them x, y, and z. If value A happens to match only one in the set x, y, and z, then that means we have a proper match and we stop searching for a match, even if it is at y. It can match any one in that set.

However, it includes a random number generator amongst other updatable tracking fields, and while the actual value of the generator isn't important, it is important that th...
Here is the problem. I wrote this function to return a reference to the i element of a member vector, so this element could be edited. Here is the code: Letter& Literal::get (int i) const { return lit_m.at (i); //Vector of Letter objects } But g++ won't let me assign that element to a non-const reference: g++ -o literal.o -c lite...
