| 21 | The Standard Template Library (STL) is a general-purpose library
|
|---|
| 22 | of generic algorithms and data structures. It is part of the C++
|
|---|
| 23 | Standard Library. Nowadays, most compiler vendors include a version
|
|---|
| 24 | on STL in their products, and there are commercial implementations
|
|---|
| 25 | available as well.
