What are the new algorithms introduced in C++17?

C++17 introduced several new algorithms, including std::clamp, std::for_each_n, and std::sample. Would you like details on any specific one?

Can you explain how std::clamp works?

Sure! std::clamp takes three arguments: a value, a lower bound, and an upper bound. It returns the value if it's within the bounds; otherwise, it returns the nearest bound.

What about std::for_each_n?

std::for_each_n applies a function to a specified number of elements in a range. It's useful for performing operations on a subset of a container.

Are there any performance improvements with these new algorithms?

Yes, many of the new algorithms are optimized for performance, leveraging better iteration techniques and reducing overhead.
