sure thing buddy...

someone asked about linux...i have both win98 and redhat on my machine. i
like linux a lot. i tried using slackware...and failed miserably.

i have a quick question about C++ (i could just go look this up, but since
i'm already typing this...)

i'll put it generically as possible.
i saw this overloaded assignment-operator header and wasnt sure what it was
supposed to do:

Class_Type operator=(Class_Type &A) {
//...
}

wouldnt it be easier to have an lhs and rhs as parameters and copy one to
the other?
would you treat operator=() as an instance function and assign attribute
values of A to corresponding attributes of "this"?
i realize this isnt a game programming question per se, but i figured i
might be able to get an answer since most people here seem to have an
affinity for C++.
