It may work under some conditions because the foil could act as a mirror to the radio waves.
On the other hand, because the wavelength of 2.4 GHz is about 12.5 cm, if the foil was close to the antenna, the reflections could cancel out direct radiation from the antenna in places. This would lead to hit and miss reception depending on the exact placement of the WiFi device.

This is not a programming question.
Very odd post - I am actually asking for opinions...
Please share your actual experience and tell your opinion
(in few words, do not want to take too much of your time )
what you recommend as
C++ learning book ( no u-tube, PLEASE ) written in
K&R style.
I mean "meat and potatoes" and minimal "click this /click that"
(got one already ) kindergarten picture book of 500 + pages.
Cheers

C++ is a far bigger language than C, so it can't be done in a small book. I learned it quite a while ago, so I can't give you a current recommendation. But the reviews of this book (by the inventor of C++) sound like it could be what you're looking for:

The direct comparison to K&R would be C++ Programming Language by Bjarne Stroustrup This is a 1300+ page book, so it's not something you can get through in an couple of days, which gives you some idea of the difference in size between C++ and C. The book is also more a reference, whereas K&R is almost tutorial in approach.
Alternatively, there's Accelerated C++ by Koenig and Moo That dives straight into the C++ programming with STL. I found it very aproachable and easy to read. My only concern with this book is that it is a bit dated, having been published in 2000, with no newer editions having been published, so additions from C++11...C++23 are not covered (shame!)
I know you don't want YouTube suggestions, but I think C++ Weekly with Jason Turner is worth a look. It's not a course, but he does cover some of the ins and outs of C++. Most videos are less than 20 minutes long, and can provide some insights as to why, for example, you might want to avoid using std::endl.

Essential C++ [Book]
Looks like not many C++ authors are updating their books, but this is a consise introduction to C++. Covers a number of important topics, but dated 1999, previous millennium.

(curious) Does style (k&r) really matters ?
CI/CD = Continuous Impediment/Continuous Despair

I've used "The ARM" (https://www.amazon.ca/Annotated-C-Reference-Manual/dp/0201514591[^]. It is very much in K&R style: only "meat and potatoes" without much "fluff".
Just like K&R, it is a bit dated now. It will serve you well to get the basic concepts but for templates and standard library stuff, you would need another book.

Following discusses a new feature in C# which as it looks to me, just means code can be written in even more obscure ways to no point. It allows one to implicitly specify a constructor.
Refactor your C# code with primary constructors - .NET Blog[^]
I have been doing this a long in multiple OO languages and I can say for certain that I never, not even once, wished that I could write code that would mingle the constructor with a method call.
Seems like a perfect way for someone to decide to make modifications after the fact without refactoring but by trying to hack a way into using the same code.

How does one send a private message to another CodeProject member? My search skills must be weak in this area.
Iβve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.
Iβm begging you for the benefit of everyone, donβt be STUPID.

Nowadays, you must have a really high CP reputation for the 'Email' link to appear. I remember it was there, generally available to everyone, but I guess someone abused it, so it was reserved for only those very trustworthy ones. I am not among those, and I wouold suspect that the OP isn't, either.

Is that a reputation limited thing? I don't see the email link on any posts.
