I KEEP FORGETTING ABOUT NAMESPACE
>> string test; rather than std::string test;
There's 3 ways to do this :
1) std::string
2) using std::string;
string
3) using namespace std;
string
in order or preference. The problem with the last option is that the whole namespace is loaded which can add a lot of unnecessary code to your executable.
