Predefined Function Objects

The following are predefined C++ function objects:

        negate<type>()
        plus<type>()
        minus<type>()
        multiplies<type>()
        divides<type>()
        modulus<type>()
        equal_to<type>()
        not_equal_to<type>()
        less<type>()
        greater<type>()
        less_equal<type>()
        greater_equal<type>()
        logical_not<type>()
        logical_and<type>()
        logical_or<type>()

Predefined Function Objects

The predefined function objects are declared in the <functional>
include file.

Internationalization

"i18n" stands for internationalization. The "18" stands for the number of letters between 'i' and 'n'.

Reference: "The C++ Standard Library" by Nicolai M. Josuttis. Addison-Wesley, 1999, p. 685.

Enum

Given:

  enum MyEnum
  
  {

    zero,
    minus_ten = -10,
    mystery
  };

mystery equals -9.

The for_each() Algorithm

The for_each algorithm can take a range and a function object as parameters. It will apply the function object to each item in the range.
The for_each algorithm returns the function_object. It is the only algorithm that does this. You can query the returned function object to get its state.

String Size and Length

For any string s, s.size() == s.length()

String of Zeroes

If a string s, only contains 10 bytes of zero, then s.length() == 10.
