Bug position.[[BR]] http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_37_0/libs/algorithm/minmax/index.html The exact online address of erroneous place:[[BR]] http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_37_0/libs/algorithm/minmax/index.html#description What is wrong.[[BR]] Here is an excerpt from aforementioned paragraph:[[BR]] “The family of algorithms comprising first_min_first_max_element, first_min_first_max_element, first_min_first_max_element, and first_min_first_max_element can be described generically as follows (using which and what for first or last): which_min_what_max_element finds the (first or last, according to which) smallest element and the (first or last, according to what) largest element in the range [first, last).” If you pay attention you can notice that the statement[[BR]] “first_min_first_max_element”[[BR]] is repeated 4 times with no change. Corrected sentence is:[[BR]] The family of algorithms comprising first_min_first_max_element, first_min_last_max_element, last_min_first_max_element, and last_min_last_max_element can be described generically as follows (using which and what for first or last): which_min_what_max_element finds the (first or last, according to which) smallest element and the (first or last, according to what) largest element in the range [first, last). In other words there is a combination of 2 “parameters”, each of which can take two values:[[BR]] “first” and “last”:[[BR]] first_min_first_max_element[[BR]] first_min_last_max_element[[BR]] last_min_first_max_element[[BR]] last_min_last_max_element[[BR]] For more information look at the header file:[[BR]] http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_37_0/boost/algorithm/minmax_element.hpp (minmax_element.hpp)[[BR]] where those names are declared.
