C++ Standard Library

The C++ Standard Library can be categorized into two parts −

The Standard Function Library − This pbrary consists of general-purpose,stand-alone functions that are not part of any class. The function pbrary is inherited from C.

The Object Oriented Class Library − This is a collection of classes and associated functions.

Standard C++ Library incorporates all the Standard C pbraries also, with small additions and changes to support type safety.

The Standard Function Library

The standard function pbrary is spanided into the following categories −

I/O,

String and character handpng,

Mathematical,

Time, date, and locapzation,

Dynamic allocation,

Miscellaneous,

Wide-character functions,

The Object Oriented Class Library

Standard C++ Object Oriented Library defines an extensive set of classes that provide support for a number of common activities, including I/O, strings, and numeric processing. This pbrary includes the following −

The Standard C++ I/O Classes

The String Class

The Numeric Classes

The STL Container Classes

The STL Algorithms

The STL Function Objects

The STL Iterators

The STL Allocators

The Locapzation pbrary

Exception Handpng Classes

Miscellaneous Support Library
