Lets look at it this way
why does this fail to compile
template
void test_me(stats::Distribution hello){
std::cout << "I recied an int and converted it to an object " <<
hello << std::endl;
}
int main ( int argc, char *argv[] ){
int a = 7;
test_me(a);
return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}
yet this does, with the promotion of the int to a distribution object
template
void test_me(stats::Distribution hello){
std::cout << "I received an int and converted it to an object " <<
hello << std::endl;
}
int main ( int argc, char *argv[] ){
int a = 7;
test_me(a);
return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}
