You forgot to put a semicolon at the end of your class declaration, didn't you. I hate that stupid thing. What's the point of it, anyway? Close curly brace isn't enough closure? O:<

You declared your variable locally instead of globally.

You forgot to validate user input resulting in a pathetically huge potential for buffer overflow.
(This must stop.)

I forgot that the member variable was static.

That's why C++ allows variables that don't belong to classes because static member variables rarely make any sense.

I don't know... I think that *this is pretty neat, but I guess we'll see next test.

What's the difference between normal casting and reinterpret casting?

Your supervisor will kill you for using the latter.

I think my CS280 professor wants us to use it in our memory managers (for casting a big, dynamically allocated char array to a struct with a pointer, for ease of accessing the first 4 bytes for a linked list).
