C++ Array Library - operator<=() Function

---

Description

The C++ function bool operator>() compares two array container elements sequentially. Comparision stops at first mismatch or when container elements are exhuasted. For comparision size and data type of both container must be same otherwise compiler will report compilation error.

Declaration

Following is the declaration for bool operator>() function form std::array header.

template <class T, size_t N>
   bool operator> ( const array<T,N>& arr1, const array<T,N>& arr2 );

Parameters

arr1 and arr2 − two array containers of same size and type.

Return Value

Returns true if first array container is greater than second otherwise false.

Exceptions

This function never throws exception.

Time complexity

Linear i.e. O(n)

Example

The following example shows the usage of bool operator>() function.

#include <iostream>
#include <array>

using namespace std;

int main(void) {

   array<int, 5> arr1 = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5};
   array<int, 5> arr2 = {1, 2, 4, 3, 5};
   bool result;

   result = (arr2 > arr1);

   if (result == true)
      cout << "arr2 is greater than arr1\n";
   else
      cout << "arr1 is greater that arr2\n";

   return 0;
}

Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −

arr2 is greater than arr1
