I can understand that (even though I disagree with the reasoning, "I've always done it this way ..." -- that isn't a reason in my opinion)

Doesn't say much for the state of CS courses does it?

foreach (int i, vecInts)

I am also investigating boost::lambda, but it seems to get more complicated when using containers of smart pointers

#define VALUE(PTR) bind(&Symbols::ValuePtr::get, PTR)

   std::sort(allValues.begin(), allValues.end(), 
             bind(&Value::Address, VALUE(_1)) < bind(&Value::Address, VALUE(_2)));

I suspect Boost.Lambda won't change to cope with smart pointers (I don't know how active its main developer Jaako Jarvi is?). However, Joel de Guzman's developed somethng very similar for Boost.Spirit (it's called Phoenix) and I'm sure I've heard talk of that being merged with lambda...or something.

Many of them are already in tr1 (an std extension until the next standard is finalized). I know the smart pointers are already in there (I make use of them fairly heavily), and I think lambda is, but I'm not sure

Nope, lambdas are going to be included as a language feature, not a library.

(\x y -> 2*x + y)

(Num a) => a -> a -> a
