Great!
BTW: Why is static qualifier needed on definition of
minmaxElement() in the unittest?
Whenever you declare something in a nested context, it may or may
not have a hidden context pointer, depending on the type, and the
implementation.
"static", in this context, ensures this does not happen. It's not
actually *needed* in this context though. It's more of a matter
of style.
In your example, the function was declared in global context, so
the "static" would have been gratuitous.
