template <class T> struct divides;
Division function object class
Binary function object class whose call returns the result of dividing its first argument by the second (as returned by operator /).

Generically, function objects are instances of a class with member function operator() defined. This member function allows the object to be used with the same syntax as a function call.

It is defined with the same behavior as:

1

3
 
template <class T> struct divides : binary_function <T,T,T> {
  T operator() (const T& x, const T& y) const {return x/y;}
};

template <class T> struct divides {
  T operator() (const T& x, const T& y) const {return x/y;}
  typedef T first_argument_type;
  typedef T second_argument_type;
  typedef T result_type;
};


Objects of this class can be used on standard algorithms such as transform or accumulate.

Template parameters

T
Type of the arguments and return type of the functional call.
The type shall support the operation (operator/).

Member types

member typedefinitionnotes
first_argument_typeTType of the first argument in member operator()
second_argument_typeTType of the second argument in member operator()
result_typeTType returned by member operator()

Member functions

T operator() (const T& x, const T& y)
Member function returning the division of its arguments (x/y).

// divides example
#include <iostream>     // std::cout
#include <functional>   // std::divides
#include <algorithm>    // std::transform

int main () {
  int first[]={10,40,90,40,10};
  int second[]={1,2,3,4,5};
  int results[5];
  std::transform (first, first+5, second, results, std::divides<int>());
  for (int i=0; i<5; i++)
    std::cout << results[i] << ' ';
  std::cout << '\n';
  return 0;
}


Output:

10 20 30 10 2
