std::deque::resize

From cppreference.com
< cpp‎ | container‎ | deque

void resize( size_type count, T value = T() );
(until C++11)
void resize( size_type count );
(1) (since C++11)
void resize( size_type count, const value_type& value );
(2) (since C++11)

Resizes the container to contain count elements.

If the current size is greater than count, the container is reduced to its first count elements.

If the current size is less than count, additional elements are appended and initialized with copies of value.

(until C++11)

If the current size is less than count,

1) additional default-inserted elements are appended
2) additional copies of value are appended
(since C++11)

Parameters

count - new size of the container
value - the value to initialize the new elements with
Type requirements
-
T must meet the requirements of MoveInsertable and DefaultInsertable in order to use overload (1).
-
T must meet the requirements of CopyInsertable in order to use overload (2).

Return value

(none)

Complexity

Linear in the difference between the current size and count.

Example

#include <iostream>
#include <deque>
int main()
{
    std::deque<int> c = {1, 2, 3};
    std::cout << "The deque holds: ";
    for(auto& el: c) std::cout << el << ' ';
    std::cout << '\n';
    c.resize(5);
    std::cout << "After resize up 5: ";
    for(auto& el: c) std::cout << el << ' ';
    std::cout << '\n';
    c.resize(2);
    std::cout << "After resize down to 2: ";
    for(auto& el: c) std::cout << el << ' ';
    std::cout << '\n';
}

Output:

The deque holds: 1 2 3
After resize up 5: 1 2 3 0 0
After resize down to 2: 1 2
