Security requirements are nonfunctional requirements that strongly influence the architectural design of software systems. Security requirements and other requirements can conflict with one another. A common example is that security and usability are often at odds with one another, and a balance between the two must be found. Therefore you have to determine how secure do you…

For example, you have to specify template<typename T> before each method….
Templates are like a way to simplify making overloaded functions, by allowing for a function with generic data types to be written, to have the compiler change at compile time. The Generic Version of this would look like: Think of something like where you want to determine the max value of two variables. Well, you…
In addition to the standard tags that you often find people using, there are several optional tags which can be used to help organize the data.
