boost::algorithm::any_of() in C++ library
Last Updated :

The any_of() function in C++ boost library is found under the header ‘boost/algorithm/cxx11/any_of.hpp’ which tests the elements of a sequence and returns true if they any of the elements share the property given. It takes a sequence and a predicate, and returns true if the predicate returns true for any given element in the sequence.
Syntax:
bool any_of ( InputIterator first, InputIterator last, Predicate p )
or
bool any_of ( const Range &R, Predicate p)
Parameters: The function accepts parameters as described below:
- first: It specifies the input iterators to the initial positions in a sequence.
- second: It specifies the input iterators to the final positions in a sequence.
- p: It specifies a unary predicate function that accepts an element and returns a bool.
- R: It is the complete sequence.
Return Value: The function returns true if the given predicate is true on any of the element of the sequence, else it returns false.
Below is the implementation of the above approach:
Program-1:
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
#include <boost/algorithm/cxx11/any_of.hpp>
using namespace std;
bool isOdd( int i)
{
return i % 2 == 1;
}
int main()
{
int c[] = { 1, 2, 3 };
bool ans = boost::algorithm::any_of(c, isOdd);
if (ans == 1)
cout << "at least one element is odd" ;
else
cout << "all elements are even" ;
return 0;
}
|
Output:
at least one element is odd
Program-2:
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
#include <boost/algorithm/cxx11/any_of.hpp>
using namespace std;
bool anyLessThanSeven( int i)
{
return i < 7;
}
int main()
{
int a[] = { 1, 2, 10, 8 };
bool ans
= boost::algorithm::any_of(a, a + 4,
anyLessThanSeven);
if (ans == 1)
cout << "at least one element is less than 7" ;
else
cout << "all elements are not less than 7" ;
return 0;
}
|
Output:
at least one element is less than 7
