inplace_merge (STL Samples)
Illustrates how to use the inplace_merge Standard Template Library (STL) function in Visual C++.
template<class BidirectionalIterator>
inline void inplace_merge(
BidirectionalIterator First,
BidirectionalIterator Middle,
BidirectionalIterator Last
)
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 inplace_merge algorithm merges two sorted subsequences: [First..Middle) and [Middle..Last) in place into a single sorted sequence [First..Last). This version assumes that the ranges [First..Middle) and [Middle..Last) are sorted using operator<. If both ranges contain equal values, the value from the first range will be stored first.
Example
// inplace_merge.cpp
// compile with: /EHsc
//
// Functions:
// inplace_merge : Merge two sorted sub-sequences in place into a
// single sorted list.
//
// 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 inplace_merge
Numbers { 4 10 70 10 30 69 96 100 }
After calling inplace_merge
Numbers { 4 10 10 30 69 70 96 100 }
