Collections of Data

C++ provides built-in data structures for storing and processing collections of data.

Objectives

Upon completion of this module, you should be able to:

Describe the purpose of namespaces in relation to variable scope.
Make use of built-in types defined in existing namespaces.
Define custom namespaces.
Store and access data of a uniform type in standard arrays and vectors.
Set, retrieve, and update elements in arrays and vectors.
Loop through the elements of an array or vector using a standard loop and range-based for loops.
Access, compare and manipulate container iterators.
Loop through the container elements using iterators.
Store and access text data using strings.
Concatenate strings with other strings and with primitives.
Extract, manipulate, and search for sub-strings.
Pass containers to functions as parameters.
Copy and compare containers.
List other helpful C++ container classes and their Unreal Engine counterparts.
