Guideline

 EXP50-CPP. Do not depend on the order of evaluation for side effects
 MEM50-CPP. Do not access freed memory
 MEM52-CPP. Detect and handle memory allocation errors
 MSC50-CPP. Do not use std::rand() for generating pseudorandom numbers
 CTR01-CPP. Do not apply the sizeof operator to a pointer when taking the size of an array
 CTR02-CPP. Explicitly specify array bounds, even if implicitly defined by an initializer
 DCL01-CPP. Do not reuse variable names in subscopes
 DCL02-CPP. Use visually distinct identifiers
 DCL06-CPP. Use meaningful symbolic constants to represent literal values in program logic
 DCL13-CPP. Declare function parameters that are pointers to values not changed by the function as const
 EXP09-CPP. Use sizeof to determine the size of a type or variable
 EXP12-CPP. Do not ignore values returned by functions or methods
 EXP15-CPP. Beware of integer promotion when performing bitwise operations on chars or shorts
 EXP19-CPP. Do not perform assignments in conditional expressions
 FIO07-CPP. Prefer fseek() to rewind()
 FIO12-CPP. Prefer setvbuf() to setbuf()
 INT07-CPP. Use only explicitly signed or unsigned char type for numeric values
 INT09-CPP. Ensure enumeration constants map to unique values
 INT12-CPP. Do not make assumptions about the type of a plain int bit-field when used in an expression
 INT13-CPP. Use bitwise operators only on unsigned operands
 MEM02-CPP. Immediately cast the result of a memory allocation function call into a pointer to the allocated type
 MSC05-CPP. Do not manipulate time_t typed values directly
 MSC18-CPP. Finish every set of statements associated with a case label with a break statement
 STR04-CPP. Use plain char for characters in the basic character set
 STR08-CPP. Do not specify the bound of a character array initialized with a string literal
