Function object class for non-equality comparison
This class defines function objects for the non-equality comparison operation.
Generically,
function objects are instances of a class with member function
operator() defined. This member function allows the object to be used with the same syntax as a regular function call, and therefore it can be used in templates instead of a pointer to a function.
not_equal_to has its
operator() member defined such that it returns
true if its two arguments do not compare equal to each other using
operator!=, and
false otherwise.
This class is derived from
binary_function and is defined as:
1 2 3 4
|
template <class T> struct not_equal_to : binary_function <T,T,bool> {
bool operator() (const T& x, const T& y) const
{return x!=y;}
};
|
Objects of this class can be used with some standard algorithms such as
mismatch,
search or
unique.
Members
- bool operator() (const T& x, const T& y)
- Member function returning the result of the comparison x!=y.
Example
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
|
// not_equal_to example
#include <iostream>
#include <functional>
#include <algorithm>
using namespace std;
int main () {
int numbers[]={10,10,10,20,20};
int* pt = adjacent_find ( numbers, numbers+5, not_equal_to<int>() ) +1 ;
cout << "The first different element is " << *pt << endl;
return 0;
}
|
Output:
The first different element is 20
