Intro

This is a repo I'll update with solutions to some coding problems.

Examples

erase from a string

#include <algorithm>
str.erase(std::remove(str.begin(), str.end(), 'a'), str.end());

reverse a string

std::reverse(str.begin(), str.end());

to upper case

#include <cctype>
std::toupper(char c);

max elt of a container

#include <algorithm>
std::max_element

index of max element

std::distance(con.begin(), std::max_element(con.begin(), con.end()));

substring

substr

initialize container to some list

container = {first, second, third, ...}

set comparator

auto cmp = [](type lhs, type rhs){ return thing; }
std::set<type, decltype(cmp)> obj(cmp);
