Predicate Version of adjacent_find

Illustrates how to use the predicate version of the adjacent_find Standard Template Library (STL) function in Visual C++.

template<class ForwardIterator, class BinaryPredicate> inline
   ForwardIterator adjacent_find(
      ForwardIterator First,
      ForwardIterator Last,
      BinaryPredicate Binary_Pred
   ) ;

Remarks

Nota

The class/parameter names in the prototype do not match the version in the header file. Some have been modified to improve readability.

The adjacent_find algorithm finds consecutive pairs of matching elements in a sequence. adjacent_find returns an iterator referencing the first consecutive matching element in the range [First, Last), or last if there are no such elements. Comparison is done using the binary_pred function in this version of the algorithm. The binary_pred function can be any user-defined function. You could also use one of the binary function objects provided by the STL.

Example

// adfind2.cpp
// compile with: /EHsc
// Illustrates how to use the predicate version of
// adjacent_find function.
//
// Functions:
//   adjacent_find  - Locate a consecutive sequence in a range.

        cout << "(" << *location << ", " << *(location + 1) << ")"
        << " the first pair of strings in NamesVect such that\n"
        << "the first name is lexicographically greater than "
        << "the second\n" << endl ;
    else
        cout << "No consecutive pair of strings found such that\n"
        << "the first name is lexicographically greater than "
        << "the second\n" << endl ;

}

Output

NamesVect { Aladdin, Jasmine, Mickey, Minnie, Goofy,  }

(Minnie, Goofy) the first pair of strings in NamesVect such that
the first name is lexicographically greater than the second
