<A NAME="Description"><H3>Description</H3></A>
<P>The<B><I> iterator_category</B></I> family of function templates allows you to determine the category that any iterator belongs to.  The first five functions take an iterator of a specific type and return the tag for that type.  The last takes a<SAMP> T* </SAMP>and returns <SAMP>random_access_iterator_tag</SAMP>.</P>

random_access_iterator_tag</PRE><P>The <B><I>iterator_category</B></I> function is particularly useful for improving the efficiency of algorithms.  An algorithm can use this function to select the most efficient implementation an iterator is capable of handling without sacrificing the ability to work with a wide range of iterator types.  For instance, both the <SAMP>advance</SAMP> and <SAMP>distance</SAMP> primitives use <B><I>iterator_category</B></I> to maximize their efficiency by using the tag returned from <B><I>iterator_category</B></I> to select from one of several different auxiliary functions.  Because this is a compile time selection, use of this primitive incurs no significant runtime overhead.</P>
<P><B><I>iterator_category</B></I> is typically used like this:</P>
<PRE></PRE>
<PRE>template &#60;class Iterator>
void foo(Iterator first, Iterator last)
{
  __foo(begin,end,iterator_category(first));
}
template &#60;class Iterator>
void __foo(Iterator first, Iterator last,
           input_iterator_tag>
{
  // Most general implementation
}
template &#60;class Iterator>
void __foo(Iterator first, Iterator last,
           bidirectional_iterator_tag>
{
  // Implementation takes advantage of bi-diretional
  // capability of the iterators
}
_etc.
