[Solved] STL Question

[zodiac976]

Vectors have reverse. The documentation even uses reverse in its example http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/reverse.html

Your indentation is off on your file.close(), by the way.

And I guess you could do list+vector, I mean, I can't think of any real reason to not do it, unless copying between the two is slow.

Yep fixed that my bad . The reversing I was talking about was
from this site http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/stl/list/reverse/.

I can't find this function for the vector but I just used a reverse iterator.
I use the functions under the #include <vector> and <list>. I should check
out this <algorithm> .

I see. reverse() does the same thing, but I don't know if there's a difference in speed between reverse() and .reverse()

[zodiac976]

Yea but when it comes to what is efficient speed-wise I am a
complete newbie on that but thanks to you I know the difference
in a vector and list speed .

Oh, you should get into the habit of doing ++i instead of i++ to advance things in for-loops. Since the result is the same -- only because there's no other statements in the line of code (as delimited by ';') -- it's faster to do ++i instead of i++. There's a couple things in this forum about that, and a link in the Guides & Resources thread.

Yea I learned that from my instructor x++ , anywho I will
take a look at that, thanks again .
