std::greater_equal in C++ with Examples
The std::greater_equal is a member of the functional class (<functional.h>). It is used to generate results of comparisons that are similar to the operator(≥). The advantage of this function over the operator(≥) is that it use the strict total order to generate the result, as opposed to the operator(≥) which uses the partial order. It returns a boolean value depending upon the condition. It can be used for comparing integers, characters, or strings, etc.
Header File:
#include <functional.h>
Template Class:
template <class T> struct greater_equal { // Declaration of the // greater equal operation bool operator() (const T& x, const T& y) const { return x>=y; } // Type of first parameter typedef T first_argument_type; // Type of second parameter typedef T second_argument_type; // The result is returned // as bool type typedef bool result_type; };
Parameter: This function accepts the type of the arguments T, as the parameter, to be compared by the functional call.
Return Type: It return a boolean value depending upon condition (let a & b are 2 element):
- True: If a is greater than equals to b.
- False: If a is less than b.
Below is the illustration of std::greater_equal in C++:
Program 1:
// C++ program to illustrate greater_equal #include <algorithm> #include <functional> #include <iostream> using namespace std; // Function to print the array arr[] void printArray( int arr[], int N) { for ( int i = 0; i < N; i++) { cout << arr[i] << ' ' ; } } // Driver Code int main() { int arr[] = { 1, 5, 8, 9, 6, 7, 3, 4, 2, 0 }; int N = sizeof (arr) / sizeof (arr[0]); // Sort the array in decreasing order sort(arr, arr + N, greater_equal< int >()); // Print sorted array printArray(arr, N); return 0; } |

Program 2:
// C++ program to illustrate greater_equal #include <algorithm> #include <functional> #include <iostream> using namespace std; // Driver Code int main() { int arr[] = { 30, 40, -50, 60, -70, 10, 20, -80, 90, 100 }; int N = sizeof (arr) / sizeof (arr[0]); // Print the number of elements less // than 0 cout << count_if( arr, arr + N, bind2nd(greater_equal< int >(), 0)); return 0; } |
