remove (STL Samples)
Illustrates how to use the remove Standard Template Library (STL) function in Visual C++.
template<class ForwardIterator, class Type> inline
ForwardIterator remove(
ForwardIterator First,
ForwardIterator Last,
const T& Value
)
Remarks
Observação
The class/parameter names in the prototype do not match the version in the header file. Some have been modified to improve readability.
The remove algorithm removes all elements that match value from the range (First, Last). It returns an iterator equal to Last - n, where n = number of elements removed. The last n elements of the range have undefined values. The size of the container remains the same.
Example
// remove.cpp
// compile with: /EHsc
// Illustrates how to use the remove function.
//
// Functions:
// remove - remove all elements from the sequence that match value.
// begin - Returns an iterator that points to the first element in a
// sequence.
// end - Returns an iterator that points one past the end of a sequence.

Output
Before calling remove
Numbers { 10 20 10 15 12 7 9 10 }
After calling remove
Numbers { 20 15 12 7 9 7 9 10 }
Total number of elements removed from Numbers = 3
Valid elements of Numbers { 20 15 12 7 9 }
