C++ std::copy_n



Description:

This C++ article is about the copy_n() algorithm function with std::vector container.
It is an STL algorithm in <algorithm> header file.It gives the freedom to choose how many
elements have to be copied in destination container

 
copy_n() has one definition:

template <class InputIterator, class Size, class OutputIterator>
OutputIterator copy_n (InputIterator first, Size n, OutputIterator result);


Return type :
An iterator to the end of the destination range where elements have been copied.

Working: The copy_n( ) function takes 3 parameters, two iterators 'first' ,n , result .

first : The pointer to the beginning of source container, from where elements have to be
started copying.
n:Integer specifying how many numbers would be copied to destination container starting
from n.If a negative number is entered, no operation is performed.
result:The pointer to the beginning of destination container, to where elements have to
be started copying.

Implementation: 

#include<iostream>
#include<algorithm> // copy_n()
#include<vector>
using namespace std;

int main()
{

   // initializing source vector
   vector<int> arr = { 1, 2, 4, 3, 9, 6 };

   vector<int> arr1(6);

   // using copy_n()
   copy_n(arr.begin(), 4, arr1.begin());

   // printing new vector
   cout << "The elements are : ";
   for(int i=0; i<arr1.size(); i++)
   cout << arr1[i] << " ";

}

Output:
The elements are : 1 2 4 3 0 0
