<h3>Prototype</h3>
<pre>
template <class <A href="ForwardIterator.html">ForwardIterator</A>>
inline ForwardIterator rotate(ForwardIterator first, ForwardIterator middle,
ForwardIterator last);
</pre>
<h3>Description</h3>
<tt>Rotate</tt> rotates the elements in a range. That is, the element pointed
to by <tt>middle</tt> is moved to the position <tt>first</tt>, the element pointed
to by <tt>middle + 1</tt> is moved to the position <tt>first + 1</tt>, and so on.
One way to think about this operation is that it exchanges the two
ranges <tt>[first, middle)</tt> and <tt>[middle, last)</tt>. Formally, for every
integer <tt>n</tt> such that <tt>0 <= n < last - first</tt>, the element
<tt>*(first + n)</tt> is assigned to <tt>*(first + (n + (last - middle)) % (last
- first))</tt>. <tt>Rotate</tt> returns <tt>first + (last - middle)</tt>.
<h3>Definition</h3>
Defined in the standard header <A href="algorithm">algorithm</A>, and in the nonstandard
backward-compatibility header <A href="algo.h">algo.h</A>.
<h3>Requirements on types</h3>
<UL>
<LI>
<tt>ForwardIterator</tt> is a model of <A href="ForwardIterator.html">Forward Iterator</A>.
<LI>
<tt>ForwardIterator</tt> is mutable.
</UL>
<h3>Preconditions</h3>
<UL>
<LI>
<tt>[first, middle)</tt> is a valid range.
<LI>
<tt>[middle, last)</tt> is a valid range. <A href="#1">[1]</A>
</UL>
<h3>Complexity</h3>
Linear. At most <tt>last - first</tt> swaps are performed. <A href="#2">[2]</A>
<h3>Example</h3>
<pre>
char alpha[] = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz";
rotate(alpha, alpha + 13, alpha + 26);
printf("%s\n", alpha);
// The output is nopqrstuvwxyzabcdefghijklm
</pre>
<h3>Notes</h3>
<P><A name="1">[1]</A>
It follows from these two requirements that <tt>[first, last)</tt> is
a valid range.
<P><A name="2">[2]</A>
<tt>Rotate</tt> uses a different algorithm depending on whether its
arguments are <A href="ForwardIterator.html">Forward Iterators</A>, <A href="BidirectionalIterator.html">Bidirectional Iterators</A>,
or <A href="RandomAccessIterator.html">Random Access Iterators</A>. All three algorithms, however,
are linear.
