std::string The std::string is a class of C++ Standard Library (STL) that represents a string (sequence of characters). It is used to handle strings with better memory management, i.e., it provides dynamic memory management for strings and supports a rich set of in-built functions for string manipulation. Syntax Following is the syntax of string: string str = "tutorialspoint"; std::LPCSTR LPCSTR stands for Long Pointer to Constant String. It is a constant, null-terminated string of ANSI (narrow) characters (8-bit characters). In contrast to LPCWSTR, which stores wide characters (Unicode/UTF-16), LPCSTR is used in Windows API functions to store regular char-based ... Read More
In data structure & algorithm, we have a deque header file that handles the properties of stack and queue. For getting minimum and maximum value from O(1) time complexity, we need constant time. So, deque is one of the possible advantages of using both stack and queue. O(1) Time Complexity The O(1) time complexity is also known as constant time which defines an algorithm for taking the same amount of time instead of using size input. Syntax The basic syntax of deque data structure is as follows: deque name_of_queue; Here, deque : It ... Read More
We should use "%zu" to print the variables of size_t length. We can use "%d" also to print size_t variables, it may not always produce an error. The correct way to print size_t variables is use of "%zu", because compiler standard %zu is defined as a format specifier for this unsigned type. Following is the description of "%zu" format: z is a length modifier. u stands for an unsigned type. C Example to Print Value of size_t Variable In this example, we demonstrate a C program that correctly prints a ... Read More
In C and C++ programming, the exit(), abort(), and assert() functions are used for program termination and debugging. Each of these functions have different purpose and defined in different header files. In this article, we will learn these functions and their usage with the help of examples. The exit() Function In C/C++, exit() function is used to terminate the function call immediately without the executing further processes. This function is defined in (in C) and / (in C++) header file and does not return any value. Syntax Following is the basic syntax of exit() function: void exit(int status_value); Here, ... Read More
In C++, we can create vectors easily using the standard library. We are taking the main string and the string that will be searched as a vector, then searching it into the main string. When one match is found the function returns the address, and removes it from the main string. So in the next iteration, it starts from location 0 and searches again. For multiple occurrences, we are using loops and repeatedly searching for the match, and return the position. Input: Main String: "ABCcdABCcdABC" Substring to search: "cd" Output: Match found at Position = 1 Match found at ... Read More
The binary search works on the divide and conquer principle as it keeps dividing the array into half before searching. For applying the binary search algorithm, the given array should be sorted. Since the array is sorted we do not need to search the minimum element in the array. In this article, the given array has strictly decreasing elements in the left sub-array till it reaches the minimum element and the right sub-array has strictly increasing elements. For example: {40, 30, 20, 10, 25, 35}. In this example, the array is decreasing till it ... Read More
The binary search works on the divide and conquer principle as it keeps dividing the array into half before searching. For applying the binary search algorithm, the given array should be sorted. Since the array is sorted we do not need to search the maximum element in the array. Here, the given array is a Bitonic array. A bitonic array is an array in which the left sub-array has strictly increasing elements till it reaches the peak element and the right sub-array has strictly decreasing elements. For example: {10, 20, 30, 40, 35, 25}. In this example, the array is ... Read More
In C++, character literals are the constant values, which are assigned to variables of the character data type. These values are represented by a character enclosed within single quotation marks. There are mainly five types of character literals: Narrow-character literals Wide-character literals. UTF-8 character literals UTF-16 character literals UTF-32 character literals Narrow-character Literals These character literals are of type char, which represents single-byte character. It stores characters from the ASCII table, which includes values ranging from 0 to ... Read More
In C++, when a class inherits from another class, it inherits all members from parent class, but their accessibility are based on access specifiers. Key Points on What Inherits from Parent Class Following are some points on derived class inherits from its parent: The derived class can inherit data members, member functions of base class. If the data members are public, they can be accessed by derived class, same class and outside the class. If data members are protected, they can be accessed by derived and same ... Read More
In C/C++, char represents a single character, whereas int is an integer that can store both positive and negative values, but not fractional or decimal values. If you are given a character and want to convert it into an integer, it is easy and can be achieved with the different approaches. In this article, we will learn how we can convert a given character to an integer with different approaches. The following are some of the ways to convert a character to an integer: Using sscanf() Function Using atoi() Function ... Read More
