The snippet is equal to the following example
#include <iostream>
#include <utility>
int main() {
auto sum = [](auto&& ...args) {

};
constexpr int ret = sum(1,2,3,4,5);

}
In c+20, lambda supports explicit template paramter list allowing a programmer to utilize parameters' type instead of using decltype.

{
auto sum = []<typename ...Args>(Args&&... args) {
return (std::forward<Args>(args) + ...);
};
constexpr int ret = sum(1,2,3,4,5);
std::cout << ret << std::endl;
return 0;

The previous example shows a common way to break multiple loops via a flag. However, the drawback is a programmer requires to maintain flags if code includes nested loops. By using a lambda function, it is convenient for developers to break nested loops through the return.
#include <iostream>
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
[&] {
for (int i = 0; i < 5; ++i) {
for (int j = 0; j < 5; ++j) {
std::cout << i + j << " ";
if (i + j == 5) {
return;
}
}
}
}();
std::cout << std::endl;
return 0;
}
#include <iostream>
template<typename F>
long fib(long n, F f) {
long a = 0, b = 1;
for (long i = 0; i < n; ++i) {
long tmp = b;
b = a + b;
a = tmp;
f(a);
}
return a;
}
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
fib(10, [](long res) {
std::cout << res << " ";
});
std::cout << "\n";
return 0;
}
#include <iostream>
#include <functional>
using fibcb = std::function<void(long x)>;
long fib(long n, fibcb f) {
long a = 0, b = 1;
for (long i = 0; i < n; ++i) {
long tmp = b;
b = a + b;
a = tmp;
f(a);
}
return a;
}
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
fib(10, [](long res) {
std::cout << res << " ";
});
std::cout << "\n";
return 0;
}
Programmers can also use function pointers to define a functino's callback parameter. However, function pointers are only suitable for captureless lambda functions.
#include <iostream>
#include <functional>
using fibcb = void(*)(long n);
long fib(long n, fibcb f) {
long a = 0, b = 1;
for (long i = 0; i < n; ++i) {
long tmp = b;
b = a + b;
a = tmp;
f(a);
}
return a;
}
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
fib(10, [](long res) {
std::cout << res << " ";
});
std::cout << "\n";
return 0;
}
There are two ways to run a lambda function recursively. The first one is using
std::function
. However, this solution is slower than normal recursive function.
#include <iostream>
#include <functional>
#include <chrono>
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
using namespace std::chrono;
std::function<int(int)> fib;
fib = [&](auto n) { return n <= 1 ? 1 : (fib(n - 1) + fib(n - 2)); };
auto s = system_clock::now();
fib(30);
auto e = system_clock::now();
std::cout << duration_cast<milliseconds>(e - s).count() << "\n";
}
Another way is making lamdbda as an input arguemnt. The performance approaches the normal function.
#include <iostream>
#include <chrono>
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
using namespace std::chrono;
auto fib = [&](auto &&n, auto &&fib) -> int {
return n <= 1 ? 1 : (fib(n - 1, fib) + fib(n - 2, fib));
};
auto s = system_clock::now();
fib(30, fib);
auto e = system_clock::now();
std::cout << duration_cast<milliseconds>(e - s).count() << "\n";
}
