25.2.10 Mismatch [mismatch]

template<class InputIterator1, class InputIterator2> pair<InputIterator1, InputIterator2> mismatch(InputIterator1 first1, InputIterator1 last1, InputIterator2 first2); template<class InputIterator1, class InputIterator2, class BinaryPredicate> pair<InputIterator1, InputIterator2> mismatch(InputIterator1 first1, InputIterator1 last1, InputIterator2 first2, BinaryPredicate pred); template<class InputIterator1, class InputIterator2> pair<InputIterator1, InputIterator2> mismatch(InputIterator1 first1, InputIterator1 last1, InputIterator2 first2, InputIterator2 last2); template <class InputIterator1, class InputIterator2, class BinaryPredicate> pair<InputIterator1, InputIterator2> mismatch(InputIterator1 first1, InputIterator1 last1, InputIterator2 first2, InputIterator2 last2, BinaryPredicate pred);

Remarks: If last2 was not given in the argument list, it denotes first2 + (last1 - first1) below.

Returns: A pair of iterators i and j such that j == first2 + (i - first1) and i is the first iterator in the range [first1,last1) for which the following corresponding conditions hold:

  • j is in the range [first2, last2).

  • !(*i == *(first2 + (i - first1)))

  • pred(*i, *(first2 + (i - first1))) == false

Returns the pair first1 + min(last1 - first1, last2 - first2) and first2 + min(last1 - first1, last2 - first2) if such an iterator i is not found.

Complexity: At most last1 - first1 applications of the corresponding predicate.
