Chapter 2: Writing Code that Writes Code

Are you tired of writing code that is as dull as a grey rock? Do you dream of writing code that writes code? Look no further! This chapter will guide you through the most advanced techniques for generating code that generates code.

Technique 1: Recursive Function Calls

Also known as the 'Infinity Loop', this technique is a classic. It involves calling a function, which then calls another function, which calls another, and another, and another...


                            function generate_code() {
                    return generate_code();
                }

But wait, what happens when the recursion gets too deep? Ah yes, the dreaded 'Stack Overflow' error! Don't worry, we have a fix for that too.

Technique 2: Template Inheritance

Imagine having a template for every occasion. This technique allows you to write a single template that can be used to generate any type of code you want. It's like having a code-generation Swiss Army knife!


                            template <div>
                    <h1>{name}</h1>
                    <p>{description}</p>
                </div>

With this template, you can generate any type of code by simply filling in the blanks. It's like a code-generation magic trick!
