		Dry
	What do you mean by "generic collection" ("אוסף גנרי")? I suggest you solve the dry part once you learn about iterators and generic collections in class. Anyway, if you wish to start earlier, here's a brief explanation. A "generic collection" is represented by two iterators: one points to the beginning of the collection, and another to its end. The second (end) iterator does not point to an element inside the collection, but one position further (similarly to std::vector::end()). You can assume that both iterators refer to the same collection, meaning if we advance the first iterator over and over again, we will eventually reach the second iterator. You can also assume that the iterators provide all functionality provided by the STL iterators. As an example, the implementation of a function that receives as an argument a generic collection, and returns its size, would look like this: template <class Iterator> int getSize(Iterator begin, Iterator end) { int size = 0; for (Iterator i = begin; i != end; ++i) { ++size; } return size; }

		Wet, General
	Should we create Exceptions in addition to those given? Should we throw Exceptions even if it's not mentioned in the Assignment? No, You don't need to declare your own exceptions and you should throw exceptions only if it's mentioned in the Assignment paper or in the H file. How to set and verify the new g++ version for the assignment? In order to use gcc/g++/gfortran 4.7.1, you should run first: source /usr/local/gcc4.7/setup.csh # for CSH and TCSH or: . /usr/local/gcc4.7/setup.sh # for BASH and SH verify version by: gcc --version gcc (GCC) 4.7.1 Please note that this change will expire after you log out. Refer to tutorial #2 to see how to make this permanent. Should we use NULL or nullptr ? please use nullptr and not NULL to prevent failure in tests. Should we implement methods in the h files? Except for the List, please implement ALL your methods in the cpp files and not the h files. How do I create get C++11 to work in Eclipse? Go to Project | Properties | C/C++ Build. Choose C++ Compiler, then Dialect the Language standard and change it to ISO C++11 If your eclipse version is not the newest, you might not have this option. In this case, Add the -std=c++11 flag by going into Project | Properties | C/C++ Build. Choose C++ Compiler, Settings and add under miscellaneous "-std=c++11". In addition, to make Eclipse understand C++11, go to Discovery Options (Also under C/C++ Build). Make sure "C++ Compiler" is chosen and under "Compiler invocation arguments" add "-std=c++11" in the end of this line (with a space before ti of course). How should the prints in the assignment look like? Examples for Enigmas: coolEnigma (1) 17 e2 (0) 3 no \n is needed at the end of the print. Examples for Basic Rooms: TheRingRoom (60/5/4) TrueDetectiveRoom (30/7/10) no \n is needed at the end of the print. Examples for Scary Rooms: Scary Room: TheRingRoom (60/5/4/16) Scary Room: TrueDetectiveRoom (30/7/10/18) no \n is needed at the end of the print. Examples for Kids Rooms: Kids Room: TheRingRoom (60/5/4/10) Kids Room: TrueDetectiveRoom (30/7/10/12) no \n is needed at the end of the print. Examples for Companies: ExitRoomComapny : 1234567 --> in case there are no rooms. \n is needed at the end! EscaperCompany : 1234567 room1 (30/7/10) Kids Room: Fantasy (30/7/10/12) Scary Room: TheSaw (30/7/10/21) roooomy (60/5/5) \n is needed between each line And after the last room! Do we need to keep all code conventions? Yes. even though the provided code is written with some differences from the course conventions ( for variables names) you must keep the conventions published in the webcourse in your own code. Do not change names provided to you. Can we use "auto" in the assignment? No.

		Wet, First Part
	Should we check input validity? For example, should we check that a room's level is a number between 1 and 10? No, you can assume the input is legal. These constrains are only for the story of the assignment. Can a rate for a room be 0? The PDF says yes, but the method documentation and implementation says no. No, rate will be a number between 1 and 5.

		Wet, Second Part
	Do we have to write unit tests also for List? Yes. Should the list support CC and Assignment? Yes. As you can see in the list example, CC is used. therefore you must support it, and due to the Big Three rule, you must also implement the assignment operator. Can we implement the List however we want? You should implement it by pointers and not by an Array of type T. What can we assume about the type T? You can assume it has a CC, operator= and operator==. This can be enough. If you need, you can also assume there is a default constructor, T().

		Wet, Third Part
	Do we need to update the comparison operators from the first part? No, unless you were asked otherwise. In getRoomsByType method. what should we return for BASE_ROOM type? Only rooms that are pure escapeRoomWrapper type, not scary or kids rooms. Should we put the ScaryRoom and KidsRoom classes inside mtm and escaperoom namespaces like the other classes? Yes. Do we need to update the assignment operator or constructors of the classes we implemented on the first part? Yes. If your constructors or assignment operator don't support the vectors or sets you added to the classes, you must update them to support copying them where needed and initializing them where needed. In getAllRooms and getRoomsByType, sould we create a copy of the rooms? No, there is no need to create copied of the rooms in these methods.
