It's been forever since I've written C++ at a place that didn't have their own version of STL where they used different names for everything.

Hey, gotta love MyCompany::Vector!

You mean MyCompany::Array, not using the word "vector" has gotta be their primary reason for changing all the names.

I use C++ regularly and never used the 3.
Saw std::valarray in some code once, but never used it myself.

I tend to avoid boost as much as I can.

Same, tend to avoid Boost wherever I can. Or at least, avoid most of their utilities. Boost.Config standalone seems to serve some good purposes, and there are like 3 or 4 tools that are in Boost that also function properly standalone (most notably, Boost.Nowide).

Danke! Always useful to have the reference.
