Understanding end() in List
#include <iostream> #include <list> using namespace std; int main() { list<int> listObject; // create an empty list int i; for(i=0; i<10; i++) listObject.push_back(i); cout << "List printed forwards:\n"; list<int>::iterator p = listObject.begin(); while(p != listObject.end()) { cout << *p << " "; p++; } cout << "\n\n"; cout << "List printed backwards:\n"; p = listObject.end(); while(p != listObject.begin()) { p--; // decrement pointer before using cout << *p << " "; } return 0; }
