42-cpp08

The ninth C++ module of the 42 curriculum, focused on templated containers, iterators, and algorithms.

This project explores the C++ Standard Template Library (STL) through practical use of containers, iterators, and algorithm design with templates.

Usage

Each exercise (ex00 to ex02) contains its own Makefile. Compile and run individually:

cd ex00
make
./ex00

Exercises

• ex00: easyfind — a function template that searches for a value in any STL container, returning an iterator or throwing if not found.
• ex01: Span — a class that stores up to N integers and computes the shortest and longest span between stored values.
• ex02: MutantStack — a std::stack extension that exposes iterators, making it iterable like any standard container.

Code Structure

Each exercise is self-contained in its own directory with its own source files, headers, and Makefile, following the standard 42 module layout.
