inner_product (STL Samples)

Illustrates how to use the inner_product Standard Template Library (STL) function in Visual C++.

template<class InputIterator1, class InputIterator2, class T> 
   inline T inner_product( 
      InputIterator First, 
      InputIterator Last, 
      InputIterator First2, 
      T Init 
   ) 
template< 
   class InputIterator1, 
   class InputIterator2, 
   class T, 
   class BinOp1, 
   class BinOp2 
> 
   inline T inner_product( 
      InputIterator1 First, 
      InputIterator1 Last, 
      InputIterator2 First2, 
      T Init, 
      BinOp1 Binary_Op1, 
      BinOp2 Binary_Op2 
   )

Remarks

inner_product computes its result by initializing the accumulator acc with Init and then modifying it with: acc = acc + (*i1) * (*i2) - or - acc = Binary_Op1(acc, Binary_Op2(*i1, *i2)) for every iterator i1 in the range [First, Last) and iterator i2 in the range [First2, First2 + (Last - First)) in order.

Example

// inner_product.cpp
// compile with: /EHsc
//
// Description of
//         inner_product(first,last,first2,init)
//         inner_product(first,last,first2,init,binary_op1,binary_op2):
//
//    Computes its result by initializing the accumulator acc with init
//        acc = init
//    and then modifying it with
//        acc = acc  +  (*i1) * (*i2)
//    or
//        acc = binary_op1(acc, binary_op2(*i1, *i2))
//    for every iterator i1 in the range [first, last) and
//    iterator  i2  in  the  range [first2, first2 + (last - first))
//    in order.

Output

Array 1: 1 2 3 4 5 
Array 2: 1 4 9 16 25 
The inner product (S.O.P) of Array1 and Array2 is 225
The inner product (P.O.S.) of Array1 and Array2 is 86400
