NAME

     divides

      - Returns the result of dividing its first argument by  its
     second.





SYNOPSIS

     #include <functional>
     template <class T>
     struct divides;





DESCRIPTION

     divides is a binary function object. Its operator()  returns
     the result of dividing x by y. You can pass a divides object
     to any algorithm that requires a binary function. For  exam-
     ple,  the  transform algorithm applies a binary operation to
     corresponding values  in  two  collections  and  stores  the
     result.    divides  would  be  used in that algorithm in the
     following manner:


     vector<int> vec1;
     vector<int> vec2;
     vector<int> vecResult;
     transform(vec1.begin(), vec1.end(),
              vec2.begin(), vecResult.begin(),
               divides<int>());

     After this call to transform, vecResult[n] contains  vec1[n]
     divided by vec2[n].





INTERFACE

     template <class T>
       struct divides : binary_function<T, T, T>
     {
       T operator() (const T&, const T&) const;
     };
