C++ program
I have used algorithm header file. But its not giving output. It's giving one error. I don't know what's the problem. Need help#include <iostream>#include <algorithm>using namespace std;void main(){int a=5,b=-2;int c=max(a,b);cout<< c << endl;}Need help

QuoteOriginally posted by: outrunwhat about removing "using namespace std;"and changing toint c = std::max<int>(a,b);That will explicitly call for the STL version of maxIt might be that the STL library of Visual C++ 6 does't implement the max and min like later versions do. In that case you might need to use a STL implementation of a different providor. I've heard about: http://www.stlport.org/No, Still not working. Can you try in your system.
C++ program
I have seen the command in my original program max() in one book. when i tried in VC++ 6. It doen not work. How is it possible. #include <iostream>#include <algorithm>using namespace std;void main(){int a=5,b=-2;int c=max(a,b);cout << c << endl;}Gives one error ..

VC++ 6.0 doesn't have min and max in <algorithm>. You need to write your own.

Try getting the STL from stlport. It's much better than the VC6 STL, which as has already been stated doesn't include min and max.

VC6 is very old, and isn't really even C++ by any current definition.The STL shit issue MJ highlights is the top of a shitberg with lots more problems waiting to sink your code below the surface.It's 2 versions out of date, and real soon will be 3.You can get a free version of VC++ Express 2005 from MS.
C++ program
if you are really forced to use VC6. as i recall it has functions called std::cpp_min and std::cpp_max instead of std::min and std::max, so if you're happy with writing code that will never compile on any other compiler you can use these instead.or you could say...#ifdef MSVC_6#define max cpp_max#define min cpp_min#endifso that it should compile on other systems also; but this is ugly & will probably cause you all sorts of other problems later on. Ideally, just get the 2005 express edition.
