list::push_front

public member function
void push_front ( const T& x );

Insert element at beginning

Inserts a new element at the beginning of the list, right before its current first element. The content of this new element is initialized to a copy of x.

This effectively increases the list size by one.

Parameters

x
Value to be copied to the new element.
T is the first template parameter (the type of the elements stored in the container).

Return value

none

The storage for the new element is allocated using Allocator::allocate(), which may throw exceptions on failure (for the default allocator, bad_alloc is thrown if the allocation request does not succeed).

// list::push_front
#include <iostream>
#include <list>
using namespace std;
int main ()
{
  list<int> mylist (2,100);         // two ints with a value of 100
  mylist.push_front (200);
  mylist.push_front (300);
  cout << "mylist contains:";
  for (list<int>::iterator it=mylist.begin(); it!=mylist.end(); ++it)
    cout << " " << *it;
  cout << endl;
  return 0;
}


Output:
300 200 100 100 

Complexity

Constant.
