使用C++標准庫的算法,需包含頭文件<algorithm>
STL算法用於處理一個或多個iterator區間,第一個區間通常以起點和終點表示,其他區間則多數情況下只需提供起點足矣,其終點可以根據第一區間的元素數量推導出來。調用者需保證區間的有效性。STL算法命名時,引入了兩種特殊的后綴:

STL算法分類
- 非更易型算法(nomodifying algorithm)
- 更易型算法(modifying algorithm)
- 移除型算法(removing algorithm)
- 變序型算法(mutating algorithm)
- 排序算法(sorting algorithm)
- 已排序區間算法(sorted-range algorithm)
- 數值算法(numeric algorithm)
非更易型算法

移除型算法

移除型算法只是從“邏輯上”移除元素,其手段是將不應移除的元素往前覆蓋應被移除的元素,因此其並未改變操作區間內元素的個數,而是返回邏輯上新終點的位置。
變序型算法


#include "algostuff.hpp" using namespace std; using namespace std::placeholders; int main() { vector<int> coll = { 1,6,33,7,22,4,11,33,2,7,0,42,5 }; PRINT_ELEMENTS(coll, "coll:"); vector<int> evenColl; vector<int> oddColl; //copy all elements accordingly into even and odd elements partition_copy(coll.cbegin(), coll.cend(),back_inserter(evenColl),back_inserter(oddColl),[](int elem) {return elem % 2 == 0;}); PRINT_ELEMENTS(evenColl, "evenColl:"); PRINT_ELEMENTS(oddColl, "oddColl:"); return 0; }
排序算法

已排序區間算法

數值算法

使用數值算法時,需包含頭文件<numeric>
