SUMMARY
The following sample code illustrates how to use the deque::rbegin STL function, the deque::rend STL function, and the deque::push_back STL function in Visual C++.

<div class="moreinformation_section">

Prototype
const_reverse_iterator rbegin const; reverse_iterator rbegin;

const_reverse_iterator rend const; reverse_iterator rend; NOTE: The class/parameter names in the prototype may not match the version in the header file. Some have been modified to improve readability.

Description
The rbegin member function returns a reverse iterator that points just beyond the end of the controlled sequence. Therefore, it designates the beginning of the reverse sequence.

The rend member function returns a reverse iterator that points at the first element of the sequence, or just beyond the end of an empty sequence. Therefore, it designates the end of the reverse sequence.

Sample Code
NOTE: In the first line of the sample code section, /GX is equivalent to /EHsc in Visual C++ .NET and in Visual C++ 2005 and is set by default. ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // // Compile options needed: -GX // // deque.cpp : // // Functions: // //   rbegin //   rend //   push_back // // Written by Bobby Mattappally // of Microsoft Product Support Services, // Copyright (c) 1996 Microsoft Corporation.

/* Compile options needed:-GX

using namespace std; // std c++ libs implemented in std #endif

typedef deque<int, allocator > INTDEQUE;

void main

{

// Create A and fill it with elements 1,2,3,4 and 5 // using push_back function

INTDEQUE A;    A.push_back(1); A.push_back(2); A.push_back(3); A.push_back(4); A.push_back(5);

// Now print the contents in reverse order using reverse_iterator // and functions rbegin and rend

INTDEQUE::reverse_iterator rpi;

for(rpi= A.rbegin; rpi !=A.rend; rpi++) {       cout << *rpi <<" " ; }       cout<<endl;

} Program Output is: <pre class="fixed_text">5 4 3 2 1
