C++ Standard Template Libraries

Many people are surprised to realize that they do not always have to write all the code for everything they are trying to do. Many data structures and commonly used functions are already written and stored in templates online. Those for C++ can be found here. The templates on the website contain the basic codes for common data structures like lists, vectors, stacks, queues and several other basic structures. The codes are categorized and easy to locate. The codes provided are the basics for the particular data structure and can then be modified to accomplish what it is that you need the code to do in particular. It is a very useful resource which allows to drastically cut down programming time. Most other computer programming languages have similar sites which contain codes for structures in those languages.
