SUMMARYThe sample code below illustrates how to use the deque::size, deque::resize, deque::max_size, deque::end, and deque::begin STL functions in Visual C++.
MORE INFORMATION
Required Header
<deque> Prototype
size_type size() const; void resize(size_type n, T x = T()); size_type max_size() const;NOTE: The class/parameter names in the prototype may not match the version in the header file. Some have been modified to improve readability.
DescriptionThe member function size returns the length of the controlled sequence. The member function resize ensures that size() henceforth returns n. If it must make the controlled sequence longer, it appends elements with value x. If no value is supplied, the default value depends upon the type. For example, if it is a deque of chars, the default is a blank. If it is a deque of ints, the default is zero. The member function max_size returns the length of the longest sequence that the object can control.
