operator> (<list>)

Tests if the list object on the left side of the operator is greater than the list object on the right side.

bool operator>( 
   const list<Type, Allocator>& _Left, 
   const list<Type, Allocator>& _Right 
);

Parameters

  • _Left
    An object of type list.

  • _Right
    An object of type list.

Return Value

true if the list on the left side of the operator is greater than the list on the right side of the operator; otherwise false.

Remarks

The comparison between list objects is based on a pairwise comparison of their elements. The greater-than relationship between two objects is based on a comparison of the first pair of unequal elements.

Example

// list_op_gt.cpp
// compile with: /EHsc
#include <list>
#include <iostream>
int main( ) 
{
   using namespace std; 
   list <int> c1, c2;
   c1.push_back( 1 );
   c1.push_back( 3 );
   c1.push_back( 1 );

   c2.push_back( 1 );
   c2.push_back( 2 );
   c2.push_back( 2 );

   if ( c1 > c2 )
      cout << "List c1 is greater than list c2." << endl;
   else
      cout << "List c1 is not greater than list c2." << endl;
}
List c1 is greater than list c2.
