The C++ std::array::operator>() function is a comparison operator used to check whether one array is greater than another. The comparison starts with the first element and proceeds sequentially until it find a difference. It returns true if first array is greater than second array otherwise it returns false.
SyntaxFollowing is the syntax for std::array::operator>() function.
bool operator> ( const array<T,N>& lhs, const array<T,N>& rhs );Parameters
It returns true if first array container is greater than second otherwise false.
ExceptionsThis function never throws exception.
Time complexityLinear i.e. O(n)
Example 1In the following example, we are going to consider the basic usage of the operator>() function.
#include <iostream> #include <array> int main() { std::array < int, 2 > x = {1,22}; std::array < int, 2 > y = {11,32}; if (x > y) { std::cout << "x is greater than y." << std::endl; } else { std::cout << "x is not greater than y." << std::endl; } return 0; }Output
Output of the above code is as follows −
x is not greater than y.Example 2
Consider the following example, where we are going to use the operator>() on the array of different size and observing the output.
#include <iostream> #include <array> int main() { std::array < int, 2 > x = {1,2}; std::array < int, 3 > y = {1,2,5}; if (x > y) { std::cout << "x is greater than y." << std::endl; } else { std::cout << "x is not greater than y." << std::endl; } return 0; }Output
Following is the output of the above code −
main.cpp: In function 'int main()': main.cpp:6:11: error: no match for 'operator>' (operand types are 'std::array<int, 2>' and 'std::array<int, 3>') 6 | if (x > y) { | ~ ^ ~ | | | | | array<[...],3> | array<[...],2>Example 3
Let's look at the following example, where we are going to consider the identical arrays and applying the operator>().
#include <iostream> #include <array> int main() { std::array < char, 2 > a = {'x','y'}; std::array < char, 2 > b = {'x','y'}; if (a > b) { std::cout << "a is greater than b." << std::endl; } else { std::cout << "a is not greater than b." << std::endl; } return 0; }Output
If we run the above code it will generate the following output −
a is not greater than b.
