std::string::replace_copy(), std::string::replace_copy_if in C++
replace_copy
replace_copy() is a combination of copy() and replace().
- It copies the elements in the range [first, last) to the range beginning at result, replacing the appearances of old_value by new_value.
- The range copied is [first, last), which contains all the elements between first and last, including the element pointed by first but not the element pointed by last.
- The ranges shall not overlap in such a way that result points to an element in the range [first, last).
- The function uses operator== to compare the individual elements to old_value.
template <class InputIterator, class OutputIterator, class T>
OutputIterator replace_copy (InputIterator first, InputIterator last,
OutputIterator result,
const T& old_value, const T& new_value);
first, last : Input iterators to the initial and final positions
in a sequence.
old_value : Value to be replaced.
new_value : Replacement value.
Returns the position after the last copied element in the destination
range (the first element that is not overwritten).
CPP
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <algorithm>
using namespace std;
void replace_copyDemo(vector< char >& v)
{
replace_copy(v.begin(), v.begin()+1,
v.begin(), 'A' , 'Z' );
}
void print(vector< char >& v)
{
int len = v.size();
for ( int i = 0; i < len; i++)
cout << v[i] << " " ;
cout << endl;
}
int main()
{
vector< char > v;
for ( int i = 0; i <= 6; i++)
v.push_back( 'A' + i);
cout << "Before replace_copy " << ": " ;
print(v);
replace_copyDemo(v);
cout << "After replace_copy " << ": " ;
print(v);
return 0;
}

Output:
Before replace_copy : A B C D E F G
After replace_copy : Z B C D E F G
replace_copy_if
replace_copy_if() is a combination of copy() and replace_if().
- Copies the elements in the range [first, last) to the range beginning at result, replacing those for which pred returns true by new_value.
- In simpler terms, it Copies the elements of a sequence to another same-size sequence replacing any elements that satisfies a predicate, with another value.
- Returns the position after the last copied element in the destination range (the first element that is not overwritten).
Template <class InputIterator, class OutputIterator, class UnaryPredicate, class T>
OutputIterator replace_copy_if (InputIterator first, InputIterator last,
OutputIterator result, UnaryPredicate pred,
const T& new_value);
first, last : Input iterators to the initial and final positions
in a sequence.
old_value : Value to be replaced.
new_value : Replacement value.
pred : Unary function that accepts an element in the range as argument,
and returns a value convertible to bool. The value returned indicates whether the
element is to be replaced in the copy (if true, it is replaced).
CPP
#include <iostream>
#include <algorithm>
#include <vector>
using namespace std;
int IsEven( int i)
{
return ((i % 2) == 0);
}
void print(vector< int >& v)
{
int len = v.size();
for ( int i = 0; i < len; i++)
cout << v[i] << " " ;
cout << endl;
}
void replace_copy_ifDemo(vector< int >& v1,
vector< int >& v2)
{
replace_copy_if(v1.begin(), v1.end(),
v2.begin(), IsEven, 0);
}
int main()
{
vector< int > v1, v2;
for ( int i = 1; i <= 10; i++)
v1.push_back(i);
cout << "Before replace_copy_if : " ;
print(v1);
v2.resize(v1.size());
replace_copy_ifDemo(v1, v2);
cout << "After replace_copy_if : " ;
print(v2);
return 0;
}

Output:
Before replace_copy_if : 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
After replace_copy_if : 1 0 3 0 5 0 7 0 9 0
NOTE: Both algorithms i.e. replace_copy and replace_copy_if, returns the position after the last copied element in the destination range (the first element that is not overwritten).
