<h3>Prototype</h3>
<tt>Accumulate</tt> is an overloaded name; there are actually two <tt>accumulate</tt>
functions.
<pre>
template <class <A href="InputIterator.html">InputIterator</A>, class T>
T accumulate(InputIterator first, InputIterator last, T init);
template <class <A href="InputIterator.html">InputIterator</A>, class T, class <A href="BinaryFunction.html">BinaryFunction</A>>
T accumulate(InputIterator first, InputIterator last, T init,
BinaryFunction binary_op);
</pre>
<h3>Description</h3>
<tt>Accumulate</tt> is a generalization of summation: it computes the sum
(or some other binary operation) of <tt>init</tt> and all of the elements
in the range <tt>[first, last)</tt>. <A href="#1">[1]</A>
<P>
The <A href="functors.html">function object</A> <tt>binary_op</tt> is not required to be either
commutative or associative: the order of all of <tt>accumulate</tt>'s operations
is specified. The result is first initialized to <tt>init</tt>. Then, for each
iterator <tt>i</tt> in <tt>[first, last)</tt>, in order from beginning to end,
it is updated by <tt>result = result + *i</tt> (in the first version) or
<tt>result = binary_op(result, *i)</tt> (in the second version).
<h3>Definition</h3>
Defined in the standard header <A href="numeric">numeric</A>, and in the nonstandard
backward-compatibility header <A href="algo.h">algo.h</A>.
<h3>Requirements on types</h3>
For the first version, the one that takes two arguments:
<UL>
<LI>
<tt>InputIterator</tt> is a model of <A href="InputIterator.html">Input Iterator</A>.
<LI>
<tt>T</tt> is a model of <A href="Assignable.html">Assignable</A>.
<LI>
If <tt>x</tt> is an object of type <tt>T</tt> and <tt>y</tt> is an object of
<tt>InputIterator</tt>'s value type, then <tt>x + y</tt> is defined.
<LI>
The return type of <tt>x + y</tt> is convertible to <tt>T</tt>.
</UL>
For the second version, the one that takes three arguments:
<UL>
<LI>
<tt>InputIterator</tt> is a model of <A href="InputIterator.html">Input Iterator</A>.
<LI>
<tt>T</tt> is a model of <A href="Assignable.html">Assignable</A>.
<LI>
<tt>BinaryFunction</tt> is a model of <A href="BinaryFunction.html">Binary Function</A>.
<LI>
<tt>T</tt> is convertible to <tt>BinaryFunction</tt>'s first argument type.
<LI>
The value type of <tt>InputIterator</tt> is convertible to
<tt>BinaryFunction</tt>'s second argument type.
<LI>
<tt>BinaryFunction</tt>'s return type is convertible to <tt>T</tt>.
</UL>
<h3>Preconditions</h3>
<UL>
<LI>
<tt>[first, last)</tt> is a valid range.
</UL>
<h3>Complexity</h3>
Linear. Exactly <tt>last - first</tt> invocations of the binary operation.
<h3>Example</h3>
<pre>
int main()
{
int A[] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5};
const int N = sizeof(A) / sizeof(int);
cout << "The sum of all elements in A is "
<< accumulate(A, A + N, 0)
<< endl;
cout << "The product of all elements in A is "
<< accumulate(A, A + N, 1, multiplies<int>())
<< endl;
}
</pre>
<h3>Notes</h3>
<P><A name="1">[1]</A>
There are several reasons why it is important that <tt>accumulate</tt>
starts with the value <tt>init</tt>. One of the most basic is that this
allows <tt>accumulate</tt> to have a well-defined result even if <tt>[first,
last)</tt> is an empty range: if it is empty, the return value is <tt>init</tt>.
If you want to find the sum of all of the elements in <tt>[first, last)</tt>,
you can just pass <tt>0</tt> as <tt>init</tt>.
