remove_copy

Artigo

Copies elements from a source range to a destination range, except that elements of a specified value are not copied, without disturbing the order of the remaining elements and returning the end of a new destination range.

template<class InputIterator, class OutputIterator, class Type> 
   OutputIterator remove_copy( 
      InputIterator _First,  
      InputIterator _Last,  
      OutputIterator _Result, 
      const Type& _Val 
   );

Parameters

_First
An input iterator addressing the position of the first element in the range from which elements are being removed.
_Last
An input iterator addressing the position one past the final element in the range from which elements are being removed.
_Result
An output iterator addressing the position of the first element in the destination range to which elements are being removed.
_Val
The value that is to be removed from the range.

Return Value

A forward iterator addressing the new end position of the destination range, one past the final element of the copy of the remnant sequence free of the specified value.

Remarks

The source and destination ranges referenced must be valid; all pointers must be dereferenceable and within the sequence the last position is reachable from the first by incrementation.

There must be enough space in the destination range to contain the remnant elements that will be copied after elements of the specified value are removed.

The order of the elements not removed remains stable.

The operator== used to determine the equality between elements must impose an equivalence relation between its operands.

The complexity is linear; there are (_Last – _First) comparisons for equality and at most (_Last – _First) assignments.

remove_copy has two related forms:

Example

// alg_remove_copy.cpp
// compile with: /EHsc
#include <vector>
#include <algorithm>
#include <iostream>

int main() {
   using namespace std;
   vector <int> v1, v2(10);
   vector <int>::iterator Iter1, Iter2, new_end;

   int i;
   for ( i = 0 ; i <= 9 ; i++ )
      v1.push_back( i );

   int ii;
   for ( ii = 0 ; ii <= 3 ; ii++ )
      v1.push_back( 7 );
   
   random_shuffle (v1.begin( ), v1.end( ) );
   cout << "The original vector v1 is:     ( " ;
   for ( Iter1 = v1.begin( ) ; Iter1 != v1.end( ) ; Iter1++ )
      cout << *Iter1 << " ";
   cout << ")." << endl;

   // Remove elements with a value of 7
   new_end = remove_copy ( v1.begin( ), v1.end( ), v2.begin( ), 7 );

   cout << "Vector v1 is left unchanged as ( " ;
   for ( Iter1 = v1.begin( ) ; Iter1 != v1.end( ) ; Iter1++ )
      cout << *Iter1 << " ";
   cout << ")." << endl;

   cout << "Vector v2 is a copy of v1 with the value 7 removed:\n ( " ;
   for ( Iter2 = v2.begin( ) ; Iter2 != v2.end( ) ; Iter2++ )
      cout << *Iter2 << " ";
   cout << ")." << endl;
}

Sample Output

The original vector v1 is:     ( 7 1 9 2 0 7 7 3 4 6 8 5 7 7 ).
Vector v1 is left unchanged as ( 7 1 9 2 0 7 7 3 4 6 8 5 7 7 ).
Vector v2 is a copy of v1 with the value 7 removed:
 ( 1 9 2 0 3 4 6 8 5 0 ).
