All even numbers are:
0 2 4
*/It’s better to use the STL algorithm than writing a program loop to deal with the logic judge in the above example. Because we can get higher quality code, there are fewer code statements in a source file, and readers can understand what the program is doing by the name of the STL algorithm easily.
