mismatch
function template
<algorithm>
template <class InputIterator1, class InputIterator2>
pair<InputIterator1, InputIterator2>
mismatch (InputIterator1 first1, InputIterator1 last1,
InputIterator2 first2 );
template <class InputIterator1, class InputIterator2, class BinaryPredicate>
pair<InputIterator1, InputIterator2>
mismatch (InputIterator1 first1, InputIterator1 last1,
InputIterator2 first2, BinaryPredicate pred );
Return first position where two ranges differ
Compares the elements in the range [first1,last1) against those in the range beginning at first2 sequentially, and returns where the first mismatch happens.
The elements are compared by either applying the == comparison operator to each pair of corresponding elements, or the template parameter comp (for the second version).
The function returns a pair of iterators to the first element in each range which differs in both sequences.
The behavior of this function template is equivalent to:

mismatch (InputIterator1 first1, InputIterator1 last1, InputIterator2 first2 )
{
while ( first1!=last1 )
{
if (*first1 != *first2) // or: if (!pred(*first1,*first2)), for pred version
break;
++first1; ++first2;
}
return make_pair(first1,first2);
}

Parameters
- first1, last1
- Forward iterators to the initial and final positions of the first sequence. The range used is [first1,last1), which contains all the elements between first1 and last1, including the element pointed by first1 but not the element pointed by last1.
- first2
- Forward iterator to the initial position of the second sequence. Up to as many elements as in the range [first1,last1) can be accessed by the function.
- pred
- Binary predicate taking two elements as argument (one of each of the two sequences), and returning the result of the comparison between them, with true (non-zero) meaning that they are to be considered equal, and false (zero) that they are not-equal. This can either be a pointer to a function or an object whose class overloads operator().
Return value
A pair, where its members first and second point to the first element in both sequences that did not compare equal to each other.
If the elements compared in both sequences have all matched, the function returns a pair with first set to last1 and second set to the element in that same relative position in the second sequence.
If none matched, it returns make_pair(first1,first2).

// mismatch algorithm example
#include <iostream>
#include <algorithm>
#include <vector>
using namespace std;
bool mypredicate (int i, int j) {
return (i==j);
}
int main () {
vector<int> myvector;
for (int i=1; i<6; i++) myvector.push_back (i*10); // myvector: 10 20 30 40 50
int myints[] = {10,20,80,320,1024}; // myints: 10 20 80 320 1024
pair<vector<int>::iterator,int*> mypair;
// using default comparison:
mypair = mismatch (myvector.begin(), myvector.end(), myints);
cout << "First mismatching elements: " << *mypair.first;
cout << " and " << *mypair.second << endl;;
mypair.first++; mypair.second++;
// using predicate comparison:
mypair = mismatch (mypair.first, myvector.end(), mypair.second, mypredicate);
cout << "Second mismatching elements: " << *mypair.first;
cout << " and " << *mypair.second << endl;;
return 0;
}

Output:
First mismatching elements: 30 and 80
Second mismatching elements: 40 and 320

Complexity
At most, performs as many comparisons or applications of pred as the number of elements in the range [first1,last1).
