Or C++ at any point in it's history. I guess it's the burden of being multi-paradigm. Edit: Looks like zak_mc_kracken beat me to it. Which I think just makes the point even more obvious

For my high school's CS class final project, we made a street brawler using doom characters. All the doom art was captured via opening a game and using print screen, then hoping the sprite was in the right position. In retrospect, our

Agreed, as someone who worked in HFT and thus has a positive bias towards it, I found Dark Pools to be an extremely informative and factual historical account of the industry even if the author's opinions disagree with mine. Flash Boys

I set this up for use at my previous firm and it was extremely difficult and that was 2 years ago (so version 1 or 2 I think). It was great once it finally was up and running but I'd only recommend it if you have a legitimate intellect
