Re: mapcar contest

Thanks for your help.

I wrote this small program as you suggested:

#include <vector>
#include <algorithm>
#include <list>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
   int data[] = {1, -2, 3, -4, 5, -6, 7};

   std::vector<int> vi(data, data+sizeof(data)/sizeof(int));

   std::list<int> li;
   std::list<int>::iterator it(li.begin());
   std::insert_iterator< std::list<int> > insert(li,it);

   std::transform( vi.begin(), vi.end(), insert, abs );

   return 0;
}

The compiler tells me:

/tmp $ g++ mapcar2.cpp
mapcar2.cpp: In function ?int main()?:
mapcar2.cpp:17: error: no matching function for call to
?transform(__gnu_cxx::__normal_iterator<int*, std::vector<int,
std::allocator<int> > >, __gnu_cxx::__normal_iterator<int*,
std::vector<int, std::allocator<int> > >,
std::insert_iterator<std::list<int, std::allocator<int> > >&,
<unresolved overloaded function type>)?
/tmp $

I am sorry but I can't decipher that. What is wrong?

Thanks in advance and excuse my ignorance.
