Detailed Description

Function Documentation

template<typename _BidirectionalIterator >
void std::inplace_merge ( _BidirectionalIterator  __first,
_BidirectionalIterator  __middle,
_BidirectionalIterator  __last 
)

Merges two sorted ranges in place.

Parameters
firstAn iterator.
middleAnother iterator.
lastAnother iterator.
Returns
Nothing.

Merges two sorted and consecutive ranges, [first,middle) and [middle,last), and puts the result in [first,last). The output will be sorted. The sort is stable, that is, for equivalent elements in the two ranges, elements from the first range will always come before elements from the second.

If enough additional memory is available, this takes (last-first)-1 comparisons. Otherwise an NlogN algorithm is used, where N is distance(first,last).

template<typename _BidirectionalIterator , typename _Compare >
void std::inplace_merge ( _BidirectionalIterator  __first,
_BidirectionalIterator  __middle,
_BidirectionalIterator  __last,
_Compare  __comp 
)

Merges two sorted ranges in place.

Parameters
firstAn iterator.
middleAnother iterator.
lastAnother iterator.
compA functor to use for comparisons.
Returns
Nothing.

Merges two sorted and consecutive ranges, [first,middle) and [middle,last), and puts the result in [first,last). The output will be sorted. The sort is stable, that is, for equivalent elements in the two ranges, elements from the first range will always come before elements from the second.

If enough additional memory is available, this takes (last-first)-1 comparisons. Otherwise an NlogN algorithm is used, where N is distance(first,last).

The comparison function should have the same effects on ordering as the function used for the initial sort.

template<typename _II1 , typename _II2 >
bool std::lexicographical_compare ( _II1  __first1,
_II1  __last1,
_II2  __first2,
_II2  __last2 
)
inline

Performs dictionary comparison on ranges.

Parameters
first1An input iterator.
last1An input iterator.
first2An input iterator.
last2An input iterator.
Returns
A boolean true or false.

Returns true if the sequence of elements defined by the range [first1,last1) is lexicographically less than the sequence of elements defined by the range [first2,last2). Returns false otherwise. (Quoted from [25.3.8]/1.) If the iterators are all character pointers, then this is an inline call to memcmp.

Returns
Nothing.

Sorts the elements in the range [first,last) in ascending order, such that *(i+1)<*i is false for each iterator i in the range [first,last-1).

The relative ordering of equivalent elements is preserved, so any two elements x and y in the range [first,last) such that x<y is false and y<x is false will have the same relative ordering after calling stable_sort().

Sort the elements of a sequence using a predicate for comparison, preserving the relative order of equivalent elements.

Parameters
firstAn iterator.
lastAnother iterator.
compA comparison functor.
Returns
Nothing.

Sorts the elements in the range [first,last) in ascending order, such that comp(*(i+1),*i) is false for each iterator i in the range [first,last-1).

The relative ordering of equivalent elements is preserved, so any two elements x and y in the range [first,last) such that comp(x,y) is false and comp(y,x) is false will have the same relative ordering after calling stable_sort().
