remove_copy (STL Samples)
Illustrates how to use the remove_copy Standard Template Library (STL) function in Visual C++.
template<class ForwardIterator, class OutputIterator, class Type> inline
OutputIterator remove_copy(
ForwardIterator First,
ForwardIterator Last,
OutputIterator Result,
const T& Value
)
Remarks
Hinweis
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_copy algorithm copies all elements from the range (First, Last) to the range starting at Result, skipping any element that matches Value. It returns an iterator positioned immediately after the last new element.
Example
// remove_copy.cpp
// compile with: /EHsc
// Illustrates how to use the remove_copy function.
//
// Functions:
// remove_copy - copy the elements of a sequence to another sequence
// eliminating any elements 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
Numbers { 10 20 10 15 12 7 9 10 }
Total number of elements copied to Result = 5
Result { 20 15 12 7 9 0 0 0 }
