| | Hello all! When would it be advisable to use string iterators vs the "for char c in string" loop that is a feature in C++-11 or vs the for (int i.....) loop? And why? The only two situations I see myself using string iterators is for the STL algorithms and …  |
| | Hello all! I am working through a book here and it says that there is a class-template "basic_string" that is used in the namespace std as `typedef basic_string<char> string;` to create an alias for the "string" type. However, I know that there is a header file `<string>` for the declaration … |
