Hmm, that's pretty dubious usage of header in my view.
Its the class definition and there is nothing "header" about it.
As for my question it looks like the convention is if a class only has
operator overload

I thought I was missing some special style, or rule. The class above is take

As for my question it looks like the convention is if a class only has
operator overloading then the class receives a lowercase class name.
If the class has a mix, operator overloading and a normal method then
the class name gets sta
