Standard C++ Library Class Reference

Example

// max.cpp

#include <algorithm>

#include <iostream.h>

int main(void)

{

double d1 = 10.0, d2 = 20.0;

// Find minimum

double val1 = min(d1, d2);

// val1 = 10.0

// the greater comparator returns the greater of the

// two values.

double val2 = min(d1, d2, greater<double>());

// val2 = 20.0;

// Find maximum

double val3 = max(d1, d2);

// val3 = 20.0;

// the less comparator returns the smaller of the

// two values.

// Note that, like every comparison in the STL, max is

// defined in terms of the < operator, so using less here

// is the same as using the max algorithm with a default

// comparator.

double val4 = max(d1, d2, less<double>());

// val4 = 20

cout << val1 << " " << val2 << " "

<< val3 << " " << val4 << endl;

return 0;

}

Output :

10 20 20 20
