Description
The Standard Template Library (STL) represents a breakthrough in C++ programming methodology. Comprising a set of C++ generic data structures and algorithms, STL provides reusable, interchangeable components adaptable to many different uses without sacrificing efficiency. Adopted by the ANSI/ISO C++ Standards Committee, STL is an important addition to every C++ programmer's portfolio of skills. This book introduces you to STL and provides the information and techniques you need to become a proficient STL programmer. The book includes a tutorial, a thorough description of each element of the library, numerous sample applications, and a comprehensive reference. You will find in-depth explanations of iterators, generic algorithms, containers, and function objects. Several larger, non-trivial applications, including a dictionary lookup program, demonstrate how to put STL's power and flexibility to work. The book will also show you how to integrate STL with object-oriented programming techniques, while the comprehensive and detailed STL reference guide will be a constant and convenient companion as you learn to work with the library. 0201633981B04062001
