destructors: triviality vs implicit definition
As I understand the standard, a trivial destructor is one which is implicitly declared and whose class has only base and non-static members with trivial destructors. Given the recursivity of this definition, it seems to me that the only "recursion-stopping" condition is to find a base or non-static member with a non-implicitly declared d...
"public static" or "static public"?
A minor point about function declaration keywords in PHP: If you've got a class method that's static, should the static keyword come before or after the visibility keyword (public, protected, private)?

So given the following program: Is the time complexity of this program O(0)? In other words, is 0 O(0)? I thought answering this in a separate question would shed some light on this question. EDIT: Lots of good answers here! We all agree that 0 is O(1). The question is, is 0 O(0) as well? ...

The only way I can do this at present is to create another panel in the north position and add the label in the center position of thi...
