SUMMARY
=======

The following sample code illustrates how to use the set::swap, set::begin and
set::end STL functions in Visual C++.

MORE INFORMATION
================

Required Header
---------------

      <set>

Prototype
---------

      template<class _K, class _Pr, class _A>
      class set {
      public:
      // Function 1:

         void swap(_Myt& _X);
      // Function 2:
         friend void swap(_Myt& _X, _Myt& _Y);
      // Function 3:
         const_iterator begin() const;
      // Function 4:
         const_iterator end() const;
      }

NOTE: The class/parameter names in the prototype may not match the version in the
header file. Some have been modified to improve readability.

Description
-----------

The swap function swaps the two controlled sequences. The begin function returns
a bidirectional iterator that points at the first element of the sequence. The
end function returns a bidirectional iterator that points just beyond the end of
the sequence.

Sample Code
-----------

   ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// 
   // 
   // Compile options needed: -GX
   // 
   // SetSwapBeginEnd.cpp:
   //      Illustrates how to use the swap function to exchange the two
   //      controlled sequences. It also illustrates how to use the
   //      begin function to get a bidirectional iterator that points at
   //      the first element of the controlled sequence. Finally, it
   //      illustrates how to use the end function to get a bidirectional
   //      iterator that points just beyond the end of the controlled
   //      sequence.
   // 
   // Functions:
   // 
   //    swap        Exchanges the two controlled sequences.
   //    begin       Returns a bidirectional iterator that points at the
   //                first element of the controlled sequence.
   //    end         Returns a bidirectional iterator that points just
   //                beyond the end of the controlled sequence.
