Programming Discussion Thread

I've had a discussion with a friend of mine today about how LaTeX syntax sucks and we'd both like to have a different language as an interface.

Just for the heck of it, I came up with a very primitive LaTeX preamble writer for C++. It's basically a proof of concept about how you can use C++11 to create a LaTeX preamble as easy as

Code:

auto doc = DocumentStreamFactory::Create(DocumentStreamFactory::Title("Such title name"),
                                             DocumentStreamFactory::Author("Author name"),
                                             DocumentStreamFactory::Date::Today());

In other news, I've got a single day left on my bachelor thesis and really should be working on that instead. Oh well....
