To do: Using the stream iterator in C++ programming  to read from standard input and write to the standard output

To show: How to read from standard input and write to the standard output using the stream iterator in C++ programming

 

 

 

// C++ STL stream iterator

#include <iostream>

#include <vector>

#include <string>

#include <algorithm>

using namespace std;

 

int main(void)

{

// vector container

vector<string> strvec;

// container iterator

vector <string>::iterator Iter;

 

// read from the standard input until EOF/error

// the EOF is platform dependent...

// then copy (inserting) to strvec vector...

// copy from begin to end of source, to destination

cout<<"Enter some string (EOF) to terminate: "<<endl;

copy(istream_iterator<string>(cin), istream_iterator<string>(), back_inserter(strvec));

 

// print the result

cout<<"\nstrvec vector data: ";

for(Iter = strvec.begin(); Iter != strvec.end(); Iter++)

cout<<*Iter<<" ";

cout<<endl;

 

// do some sorting

sort(strvec.begin(), strvec.end());

 

// print the result

cout<<"\nstrvec vector data: ";

for(Iter = strvec.begin(); Iter != strvec.end(); Iter++)

cout<<*Iter<<" ";

cout<<endl<<endl;

 

// print all elements without duplicates to standard output

unique_copy(strvec.begin(), strvec.end(), ostream_iterator<string> (cout, "\n"));

return 0;

}

 

Output examples:

 

Enter some string (EOF) to terminate:
