A note about headers

Most function templates discussed in this chapter are defined in the standard header <algorithm>. The special iterator types, on the other hand, are generally defined in <iterator>. If you're wondering where to find a specific entity, I strongly recommend that you consult an online reference such as cppreference.com for the authoritative answer; don't just guess!

Arthur O'Dwyer

Arthur O'Dwyer has used modern C++ in his day job for about ten years--since the days when "modern C++" meant "classic C++." Between 2006 and 2011 he worked on the Green Hills C++ compiler. Since 2014 he has organized a weekly C++ meetup in the San Francisco Bay Area, and he speaks regularly on topics such as those to be found in this book. Later this year, he will attend an ISO C++ committee meeting for the second time. This is his first book.
