How can I create custom algorithms using C++ STL?

How can I create custom algorithms using C++ STL?

You can create custom algorithms in C++ STL by defining your own functions and using them with STL containers.

Can you give me an example of a custom sorting algorithm?

Sure! You can use std::sort with a custom comparator. For example:

std::sort(vec.begin(), vec.end(), [](int a, int b) { return a > b; });

This sorts the vector in descending order.

What if I want to implement a custom search algorithm?

You can implement a custom search algorithm by defining your own function and using it with STL containers. For example, you could create a binary search function.

Are there any performance considerations I should keep in mind?

Yes, always consider the time complexity of your algorithms and the overhead of using custom functions with STL. Aim for efficiency!
