25 Iterators library [iterators]

25.6 Stream iterators [stream.iterators]

25.6.3 Class template ostream_iterator [ostream.iterator]

25.6.3.1 General [ostream.iterator.general]

ostream_iterator writes (using operator<<) successive elements onto the output stream from which it was constructed.
If it was constructed with charT* as a constructor argument, this string, called a delimiter string, is written to the stream after every T is written.
