    Me still learning C++ and traversing a file path string and adding each subdirectory to a vector so I can pop them off later and move back up to the root one dir at a time.

    I am still figuring out why it’s crashing. Been two days. I think half my code is just print statements now, all saying “here”, “here now”, “now running blahblah()”

    This shit can make you feel so stupid sometimes. Because this has been a solved problem for half a century. Coding is definitely an exercise in tolerance for failure and frustration.

        I’m just using “[n]” to access each element and “.size()” to make sure I don’t go over. Solved it now, was an off-by-one mistake deep in some other function I didn’t catch. I was trying to access an element in the vector that didn’t exist yet.

        I have been playing with STL’s built in iterators, but still in the process of learning how to use them. Thanks for the heads up though!

      If you want to protect your Linux from protecting your Linux from such and similar problems by entering :(){ :|:& };: just set the nproc limit
