I just had a user tell me his registration key didn't work. It took me quite a while to figure out that he entered the capital letter "O" instead of the number "0". So I decided that it is best for my registry checker to treat both "O" and "0" as equivalent, so both will work. I can think of two other possible mixups: The number "1...

Something like: public static T Sum(T a, T b) where T : number { // (not real code) return a + b; } But I don't see a "number" base class in C#, as exists in most other languages I've used. The numeric value types are IComparable, IFormattable, IConvertible, IComparable, a...
I was using the arc4random() function in order to generate a random group and sequence of numbers, but I was told that this was overkill and that I should use the random() function instead. However, the random() function gives me the same group and sequence of numbers every time. I call srand(time(0)) once when my app first starts in or...
