Then I don't agree with Andrej at all. For local variables, in general, I think that auto should be used unless you actually need to explicitly give the type. It makes refactoring the code much easier and reduces code breakage due to type changes. If it really helps to understand the code if you give the type, then it might make sense to give the type explicitly, but the combination of functions being called, variable names used, and what the code itself is doing usually makes it so that isn't really an issue. - Jonathan M Davis
