In theory, cmp(int x, int y) can be implemented simply as (x - y). However, this fails when integer overflow occurs. Does Andrei have a nice way of doing this that isn't vulnerable to integer overflow?


return (x > y) - (x < y);

According to this stackoverflow question it looks like a good candidate
