  I'm sorry.
  My strong reaction was not to that. Of course it's important to know how
does a class work before using it. For example, I myself didn't use the
deque class in my programs until someone told me exactly how does it work,
although people had recommended me to use it for a specific task. After
I was aware of how it works I realized that it really is perfect for that
specific task and I started using it.

  My strong reaction was to the negative attitude against the STL which you
showed (or at least I got that impression). Nothing personal :)
