Quick Snippet
snippet.cpp
std::not_equal_to<int> neq; neq(5, 3);Full Example
not_equal_to.cpp
// CodeNebula - C++98 Example: std::not_equal_to
// Compile: g++ -std=c++98 -Wall -Wextra -o example not_equal_to.cpp
#include <iostream>
#include <functional>
#include <algorithm>
int main() {
int arr[] = {5, 3, 5, 5, 2, 5, 1};
int n = 7;
// Count elements not equal to 5
int count = std::count_if(arr, arr + n,
std::bind2nd(std::not_equal_to<int>(), 5));
std::cout << "Elements != 5: " << count << std::endl;
// Find first element not equal to 5
int* pos = std::find_if(arr, arr + n,
std::bind2nd(std::not_equal_to<int>(), 5));
if (pos != arr + n) {
std::cout << "First non-5 value: " << *pos
<< " at index " << (pos - arr) << std::endl;
}
// Use mismatch with not_equal_to to find first matching pair
int a[] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5};
int b[] = {9, 8, 3, 7, 6};
std::pair<int*, int*> m = std::mismatch(a, a + 5, b,
std::not_equal_to<int>());
std::cout << "First equal pair at index " << (m.first - a)
<< ": " << *m.first << std::endl;
return 0;
}
// Expected output:
// Elements != 5: 3
// First non-5 value: 3 at index 1
// First equal pair at index 2: 3
