operator!=

Tests if the iterator object on the left side of the operator isn't equal to the iterator object on the right side.

template <class RandomIterator>
bool operator!=(const reverse_iterator<RandomIterator>& left, const reverse_iterator<RandomIterator>& right);

template <class Type, class CharType, class Traits, class Distance>
bool operator!=(const istream_iterator<Type, CharType, Traits, Distance>& left, const istream_iterator<Type, CharType, Traits, Distance>& right);

template <class CharType, class Tr>
bool operator!=(const istreambuf_iterator<CharType, Traits>& left, const istreambuf_iterator<CharType, Traits>& right);

Parameters

left
An object of type iterator.

right
An object of type iterator.

Return Value

true if the iterator objects aren't equal; false if the iterator objects are equal.

Remarks

One iterator object is equal to another if they address the same elements in a container. If two iterators point to different elements in a container, then they aren't equal.

Example

/// iterator_op_ne.cpp
// compile with: /EHsc
#include <iterator>
#include <vector>
#include <iostream>

int main()
{
    using namespace std;

    vector<int> vec;
    for (int i = 1; i < 9; ++i)
    {
        vec.push_back(i);
    }

    cout << "The vector vec is: ( ";
    for (vector <int>::iterator vIter = vec.begin(); vIter != vec.end(); vIter++)
    {
        cout << *vIter << " ";
    }
    cout << ")." << endl;

    // Initializing reverse_iterators to the last element
    vector <int>::reverse_iterator rVPOS1 = vec.rbegin(),
        rVPOS2 = vec.rbegin();

    cout << "The iterator rVPOS1 initially points to the first "
        << "element\n in the reversed sequence: "
        << *rVPOS1 << "." << endl;

    if (rVPOS1 != rVPOS2)
    {
        cout << "The iterators are not equal." << endl;
    }
    else
    {
        cout << "The iterators are equal." << endl;
    }

    rVPOS1++;
    cout << "The iterator rVPOS1 now points to the second "
        << "element\n in the reversed sequence: "
        << *rVPOS1 << "." << endl;

    if (rVPOS1 != rVPOS2)
    {
        cout << "The iterators are not equal." << endl;
    }
    else
    {
        cout << "The iterators are equal." << endl;
    }
}

The vector vec is: ( 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 ).
The iterator rVPOS1 initially points to the first element
in the reversed sequence: 8.
The iterators are equal.
The iterator rVPOS1 now points to the second element
in the reversed sequence: 7.
The iterators are not equal.

operator==

Tests if the iterator object on the left side of the operator is equal to the iterator object on the right side.

template <class RandomIterator1, class RandomIterator2>
bool operator==(
    const move_iterator<RandomIterator1>& left,
    const move_iterator<RandomIterator2>& right);

template <class RandomIterator1, class RandomIterator2>
bool operator==(
    const reverse_iterator<RandomIterator1>& left,
    const reverse_iterator<RandomIterator2>& right);

template <class Type, class CharType, class Traits, class Distance>
bool operator==(
    const istream_iterator<Type, CharType, Traits, Distance>& left,
    const istream_iterator<Type, CharType, Traits, Distance>& right);

template <class CharType, class Tr>
bool operator==(
    const istreambuf_iterator<CharType, Traits>& left,
    const istreambuf_iterator<CharType, Traits>& right);

Parameters

left
An object of type iterator.

right
An object of type iterator.

Return Value

true if the iterator objects are equal; false if the iterator objects aren't equal.

Remarks

One iterator object is equal to another if they address the same elements in a container. If two iterators point to different elements in a container, then they aren't equal.

The first two template operators return true only if both left and right store the same iterator. The third template operator returns true only if both left and right store the same stream pointer. The fourth template operator returns left.equal (right).

Example

// iterator_op_eq.cpp
// compile with: /EHsc

#include <vector>
#include <iostream>

int main()
{
    using namespace std;

    vector<int> vec;
    for (int i = 1; i < 6; ++i)
    {
        vec.push_back(2 * i);
    }

    cout << "The vector vec is: ( ";
    for (vector <int>::iterator vIter = vec.begin(); vIter != vec.end(); vIter++)
    {
        cout << *vIter << " ";
    }
    cout << ")." << endl;

    // Initializing reverse_iterators to the last element
    vector <int>::reverse_iterator rVPOS1 = vec.rbegin(),
        rVPOS2 = vec.rbegin();

    cout << "The iterator rVPOS1 initially points to the first "
        << "element\n in the reversed sequence: "
        << *rVPOS1 << "." << endl;

    if (rVPOS1 == rVPOS2)
    {
        cout << "The iterators are equal." << endl;
    }
    else
    {
        cout << "The iterators are not equal." << endl;
    }

    rVPOS1++;
    cout << "The iterator rVPOS1 now points to the second "
        << "element\n in the reversed sequence: "
        << *rVPOS1 << "." << endl;

    if (rVPOS1 == rVPOS2)
    {
        cout << "The iterators are equal." << endl;
    }
    else
    {
        cout << "The iterators are not equal." << endl;
    }
}

in the reversed sequence: 10.

operator<

Tests if the iterator object on the left side of the operator is less than the iterator object on the right side.

template <class RandomIterator>
bool operator<(const reverse_iterator<RandomIterator>& left, const reverse_iterator<RandomIterator>& right);

Parameters

left
An object of type iterator.

right
An object of type iterator.

Return Value

true if the iterator on the left side of the expression is less than the iterator on the right side of the expression; false if it's greater than or equal to the iterator on the right.

Remarks

One iterator object is less than another if it addresses an element that occurs earlier in the container than the element addressed by the other iterator object. One iterator object isn't less than another if it addresses either the same element as the other iterator object or an element that occurs later in the container than the element addressed by the other iterator object.

            << "element\n in the reversed sequence: "
            << *rVPOS2 << "." << endl;

        if (rVPOS1 < rVPOS2)
        {
            cout << "The iterator rVPOS1 is less than"

operator-

Subtracts one iterator from another and returns the difference.

left
An iterator.

right

Tdiff is determined by the type of the returned expression. Otherwise, it's RandomIterator1::difference_type.
