//! Exercise 10.3:
//! Use accumulate to sum the elements in a vector<int>.
//!
//! Exercise 10.4:
//! Assuming v is a vector<double>, what, if anything,
//! is wrong with calling accumulate(v.cbegin(), v.cend(), 0)?
//  Check below.
//!

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <vector>
#include <algorithm>
#include <numeric>


int main()
{
    //! Exercise 10.3
    std::vector<int> v = {1,2,3,4};
    std::cout << "ex 10.03: "
              << std::accumulate(v.cbegin(), v.cend(), 0)
              << std::endl;

    //! Exercise 10.4
    std::vector<double> vd = {1.1, 0.5, 3.3};
    std::cout << "ex 10.04: "
              << std::accumulate(vd.cbegin(), vd.cend(), 0)
              << std::endl;                        //!   ^<-- note here.
    //! @attention
    //!
    //! The ouput is 4 rather than 4.9 as expected.
    //! The reason is std::accumulate is a template function. The third parameter is _Tp __init
    //! When "0" , an integer, had been specified here, the compiler deduced _Tp as
    //! interger.As a result ,when the following statments were being excuted :
    //  for (; __first != __last; ++__first)
    //	__init = __init + *__first;
    //  return __init;
    //! all calculation would be converted to integer.

    return 0;
}
//! output
//!
//ex 10.03: 10
//ex 10.04: 4
