I am from Indonesia, This course are very easier to undertstand than so many c++ text books that i've downloaded so far. Keep it simple, easy to understand, and directly to the point.

Thanks for the great work! I love your tutorial series. This article is very informative. I got a question here -- in Mixed signed and unsigned values. To my understand I think by promotion you mean either to type cast or change it's type to another. But, is it done by the compiler or by the programmer manually? >Due to the type conversion, this if statement will always evaluate to false, which is clearly not what the programmer intends! Can you clarify this also... What you mean by type conversion? In this snippet: Are the types in the if body different as they were declared? Or both changed to the same type? Hope to get a response soon! Howdy, Alex!

Can you clarify this also… What you mean by type conversion?
In this snippet: Are the types in the if body different as they were declared? Or both changed to the same type?

Hope to get a response soon!

Eventually this could lead to "pure virtual function calls". It is very hard to track down if there is a virtual method in call-chain.
