fill

function template
<algorithm>
template < class ForwardIterator, class T >
  void fill ( ForwardIterator first, ForwardIterator last, const T& value );

Fill range with value

Sets value to all elements in the range [first,last).

The behavior of this function template is equivalent to:
1
2
3
4
5
template < class ForwardIterator, class T >
  void fill ( ForwardIterator first, ForwardIterator last, const T& value )
{
  while (first != last)  *first++ = value;
}


Parameters

first, last
Forward iterators to the initial and final positions in a sequence. The range affected is [first,last), which contains all the elements between first and last, including the element pointed by first but not the element pointed by last.
value
Value to be used to fill the range.

Return value

none

// fill algorithm example
#include <iostream>
#include <algorithm>
#include <vector>
using namespace std;
int main () {
  vector<int> myvector (8);                       // myvector: 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
  fill (myvector.begin(),myvector.begin()+4,5);   // myvector: 5 5 5 5 0 0 0 0
  fill (myvector.begin()+3,myvector.end()-2,8);   // myvector: 5 5 5 8 8 8 0 0
  cout << "myvector contains:";
  for (vector<int>::iterator it=myvector.begin(); it!=myvector.end(); ++it)
    cout << " " << *it;
  cout << endl;
 
  return 0;
}


Output:
myvector contains: 5 5 5 8 8 8 0 0

Complexity

Linear: Performs as many assignment operations as the number of elements in the range [first,last).
