C++ Vector Basics and Functions

Vectors in C++ are dynamic lists that can grow and shrink in size. They store elements of the same type and use indexes to access elements. Common functions for vectors include size() to get the number of elements, push_back() to add elements, and pop_back() to remove elements.

Vectors

Vector Type
During the creation of a C++ vector, the data type of its
elements must be specified. Once the vector is created,
the type cannot be changed.

Index
An index refers to an element’s position within an ordered std::vector<double> order = {3.99, 12.99,
list, like a vector or an array. The first element has an
2.49};
index of 0.
A specific element in a vector or an array can be
accessed using its index, like name[index] . // What's the first element?
std::cout << order[0];

// What's the last element?


std::cout << order[2];

.size() Function
The .size() function can be used to return the number std::vector<std::string> employees;
of elements in a vector, like [Link]() .

employees.push_back("michael");
employees.push_back("jim");
employees.push_back("pam");
employees.push_back("dwight");

std::cout << [Link]();


// Prints: 4

Vectors
In C++, a vector is a dynamic list of items, that can shrink #include <iostream>
and grow in size. It is created using std::vector<type>
#include <vector>
name; and it can only store values of the same type.
To use vectors, it is necessary to #include the vector
library. int main() {
std::vector<int> grades(3);

grades[0] = 90;
grades[1] = 86;
grades[2] = 98;

.push_back() & .pop_back()


The following functions can be used to add and remove std::vector<std::string> wishlist;
an element in a vector:
.push_back() to add an element to the “end” of
a vector wishlist.push_back("Oculus");
.pop_back() to remove an element from the wishlist.push_back("Telecaster");
“end” of a vector

wishlist.pop_back();

std::cout << [Link]();


// Prints: 1
