STL_copy

此函数位于头文件：

#include <algorithm>

原型为：

output_iterator copy( input_iterator start, input_iterator end, output_iterator dest );
The copy function copies the elements between start and end to dest. In other words, after copy has run,

   *dest = *start
   *(dest+1) = *(start+1)
   *(dest+2) = *(start+2)
   ...

   *(dest+N) = *(start+N)

The return value is the position in the destination range after the last element copied (i.e. dest+N+1). copy runs in linear time.

主要功能就是完成拷贝

For example, the following code uses copy to both copy the contents of one vector to another and to display the resulting vector:

vector<int> from_vector;
for( int i = 0; i < 10; i++ ) {
 from_vector.push_back( i );
}

vector<int> to_vector(10);

copy( from_vector.begin(), from_vector.end(), to_vector.begin() );

cout << "to_vector contains: ";
copy( to_vector.begin(), to_vector.end(), ostream_iterator<int>( cout, " " ) );

cout << endl;
