	Understanding the C++ Standard Template Library
		Libraries come in different shapes, not to say sizes, and the shape of a library has a profound effect on its usability and ease of assimilation.
		The STL is a relatively small library which achieves a remarkable degree of reuse through its basis in the principles of generic programming and its use of C++ templates.
		Because STL algorithms are template functions specialised on the types of the iterators returned by the underlying containers it is perfectly reasonable to use the copy algorithm to move the contents of one container to another of a different type.

	Standard Template Library - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The STL has been a major boon for most of C++ programmers: it gives them a ready-made set of common classes, such as containers and associative arrays, that can be used with any built-in type and with any user-defined type that supports some elementary operations such as copying and assignment.
		The Standard Template Library was created as the first library of generic algorithms and data structures, with four ideas in mind: generic programming, abstractness without loss of efficiency, the Von Neumann computation model, and value semantics.
		Libraries implementing STL often include hashed variants: hash_set, hash_multiset, hash_map and hash_multimap, but these extensions are not part of the standard and are defined in various namespaces among implementations as a result.

	C standard library - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The C standard library is a now-standardised collection of header files and library routines used to implement common operations, such as input/output and string handling, in the C programming language.
		The library provides a basic set of mathematical functions, string manipulation, type conversions, and file and console-based I/O. It does not include a standard set of "container types" like the C++ Standard Template Library, let alone the complete graphical user interface (GUI) toolkits, networking tools, and profusion of other functionality that Java provides as standard.
		Though often confused with the C Standard Library because of this packaging, the C Runtime Library is not a standardized part of the language and is vendor-specific.

	The JavaScript STL (Standard Template Library). Part 1 - WebReference.com-
		Different parts of the STL are interchangeable and the interface for each object is consistent, which makes it easy for programmers to switch between different parts or even implementations without having to modify other parts of their code.
		Templates were added in C++ to add a bit of flexibility to the strongly typed nature of the language.
		Templates may be used to define new classes as well as functions and these may be based on other classes and even combinations of multiple classes and simple types.

	Part 1: The Standard C++ Library (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Standard C++ not only incorporates all the Standard C libraries, with small additions and changes to support type safety, it also adds libraries of its own.
		Included are templatized versions of operators !=, >, <=, and >= (to prevent redundant definitions), a pair template class with a tuple-making template function, a set of function objects for support of the STL, and storage allocation functions for use with the STL so you can easily modify the storage allocation mechanism.
		The goal of this library is to allow the compiler implementer to take advantage of the architecture of the underlying machine when used for numerical operations.

	C plus plus:Standard Template Library - GPWiki
		The standard template library (stl) is a similar but distinct entity from the parts of it that got included in the C++ standard library.
		In fact, the whole standard library was designed with performance in mind, and often things will compile to code that is just as efficient as a solution you write yourself.
		Another very common (and somewhat related) reason not to use standard library functionality is that people refuse to use anything they did not program themselves in their programs.

		The Standard C++ library works in conjunction with the 18 headers from the Standard C library, sometimes with small alterations.
		Because the C++ Standard is still relatively new, not all implementations support all the features described here.

		This library of algorithms and containers uses templates to implement an efficient code base that is reusable and extensible.
		STL is one of the two major components in the Standard C++ Library as defined by the C++ standard.
		STL can be described basically by three traditional categories: containers, iterators, and algorithms.

		Templates are very useful when implementing generic constructs such as vectors, stacks, lists, and queues that can be used with any arbitrary type.
		The Standard Template Library generic algorithms have been implemented as function templates and the containers have been implemented as class t emplates.
		STL algorithms are written in terms of iterator parameters, and STL containers provide iterators that can be plugged into the algorithms.

		The is_subtype template implements a test on the subclass of the object referred to by a base class pointer using a safe downcast member function defined by the base class.
		The subdomain template is a subclass of a view template in which the transformation function is implemented by the identity function.

		This implementation, developed by Stepanov, Lee, and Musser during the standardization process, became the basis of all implementations offered by compiler and library vendors today.
		Libraries implementing STL often include hashed variants: hash_set, hash_multiset, hash_map and hash_multimap, however this extension is not part of standard and are defined in various namespaces among implementations as a result.

	Cprogramming.com STL Tutorial: Standard Template Library Introduction
		The spirit of the Standard Template Library is the idea of generic programming - the implementation of algorithms or data structures without being dependent on the type of data being handled.
		Moreover, the STL provides some nice features such as handling memory for you (no memory leaks), and it is also safer (no buffer overflow issues when using vectors or similar data structures).
		The STL does so at very low cost to program performance, no more than any other templated class or function, and it's less likely that using a library function will lead to bugs than using your own code.

	An Overview of The Standard Template Library
		The first official proposal for templates appeared in the ARM [1] in 1990 and templates are now an official language construct as outlined in the April 1995 ANSI draft [2].
		Templates are still a recent addition to C++ and many compiler vendors do not provide all of the features as suggested in the April 1995 ANSI draft.
		STL algorithms are decoupled from the particular containers they operate on and are instead parameterized by iterator types.

		The STL was subsequently adopted as part of the C++ Standard Library.
		Although the STL is often thought of as a library of container classes, that is not the most appropriate starting point for understanding it.
		The STL defines other Iterator concepts in addition to Input Iterator: It is possible to express find solely in terms of the operations listed in the Input Iterator requirements, but other algorithms, such as sort, cannot be expressed in terms of such a minimal set of operations.

		The STL is implemented by means of the C++ template mechanism, hence its name.

	Standard Template Library
		Using STL and Standard Library interchangeably is a common mistake that should be avoided.
		STL was a generic algorithms and data-structures library originally developed by AlexanderStepanov for Ada and then ported to CeePlusPlus before being accepted into the C++ Standard Library.
		The STL uses C++ techniques such as template specialization to allow algorithms to be implemented more efficiently when more capable iterator types are used, but to fall back to more basic implementations for other iterator types.

		This means you should have a good familiarity with the standard libraries available for your languages of choice, and you should at least browse downloadable libraries from time to time so you know what’s “out there”.
		There are other libraries that offer similar functionality to the STL, such as the Core module of Qt, which is my personal favorite.
		Deques are usually implemented internally as a kind of tree of small array “chunks”, but as with all the container classes the standards only specify what kinds of operations should be fast, and leave library writers to decide the details of how they work.
