我不太确定为什么较大字符串(“cat”和“dog”)的答案不一致。我正在用链接列表和模板的使用做一些事情。我的好奇心促使我修改模板和函数重载。如果有人能解释发生了什么，我将不胜感激。 谢谢你。

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;   // for the sake of simplicity. (otherwise, std::)

// Function overloading and the use of templates

// overloading the function larger
int larger(int, int);
char larger(char, char);
double larger(double, double);
string larger(string, string);

template <class elementType>
elementType anyLarger(elementType parameter1, elementType parameter2);


int main() {

    cout << endl;
    cout << "Function Overloading" << endl;

    cout << "larger(15, 27)            =  " << larger(15, 27) << endl;
    cout << "larger('X', 'P')          =  " << larger('X', 'P') << endl;
    cout << "larger(4.9, 3.2)          =  " << larger(4.9, 3.2) << endl;
    cout << "larger(cat, dog)          =  " << larger("cat", "dog") << endl;

    cout << endl;
    cout << "Using the function template to find the larger of two items" << endl;
    cout << "anyLarger(15, 27)         =  " << anyLarger(15, 27) << endl;
    cout << "anyLarger('X', 'P')       =  " << anyLarger('X', 'P') << endl;
    cout << "anyLarger(4.9, 3.2)       =  " << anyLarger(4.9, 3.2) << endl;
    cout << "anyLarger(cat, dog)       =  " << anyLarger("cat", "dog") << endl;
    cout << endl;


    cout << "Compare two strings:   cat, dog" << endl;
    if ("cat" >= "dog") {
      cout << "cat is greater than dog" << endl;
    }
    else {
      cout << "dog is greater than cat" << endl;
    }

    cout << endl;
    string strCat = "cat";
    string strDog = "dog";
    cout << "string strCat = cat" << endl;
    cout << "string strDog = dog" << endl;
    if (strCat >= strDog) {
      cout << "strCat is greater than strDog" << endl;
    }
    else {
      cout << "strDog is greater than strCat" << endl;
    }
    cout << endl;
} // end main 

// Overloading larger
int larger(int x, int y) {
    if (x >= y)
      return x;
    else 
      return y;
}

char larger(char a, char b) {
    if (a >= b)
      return a;
    else 
      return b;
}

double larger(double p, double q) {
    if (p >= q)
      return p;
    else
      return q;
}

string larger(string y, string z) {
    if (y >= z)
      return y;
    else
      return z;
}


// Defining the template function
template <class elementType>
elementType anyLarger(elementType parameter1, elementType parameter2)
{
    if (parameter1 >= parameter2)
      return parameter1; 
    else
      return parameter2;
}

这是运行程序后的结果。

Function Overloading
larger(15, 27)            =  27
larger('X', 'P')          =  X
larger(4.9, 3.2)          =  4.9
larger(cat, dog)          =  dog

Using the function template to find the larger of two items
anyLarger(15, 27)         =  27
anyLarger('X', 'P')       =  X
anyLarger(4.9, 3.2)       =  4.9
anyLarger(cat, dog)       =  cat

Compare two strings:   cat, dog
cat is greater than dog

string strCat = cat
string strDog = dog
strDog is greater than strCat

更新:输出

// Function Overloading
larger(15, 27)              =  27
larger('X', 'P')            =  X
larger(4.9, 3.2)            =  4.9
larger("cat", "dog")        =  dog

// Using the function template to find the larger of two items
anyLarger(15, 27)           =  27
anyLarger('X', 'P')         =  X
anyLarger(4.9, 3.2)         =  4.9
anyLarger("cat", "dog")     =  cat

// Compare two strings using >= :   "cat", "dog"
"cat" is greater than "dog"

// The use of variables: strCat and strDog. Compare using >=
string strCat = "cat";
string strDog = "dog";
strDog is greater than strCat

// Using strcmp.   strcmp("cat", "dog")
"dog" is greater than "cat"

最佳答案

在这两种情况下，您都没有按字典顺序比较字符串。

"cat" >= "dog"

这是比较 char 指针，因为文字 "cat" 和 "dog" 的类型是 const char*。它可以给出任一结果，具体取决于编译器决定如何具体化文字。

要按字典顺序比较 C 风格的字符串(包括像这样的文字)，必须使用 strcmp 函数。

strCat >= strDog

这是按字典顺序比较字符串，因为 std::string 提供了显式实现这种比较的比较运算符。

关于C++ 字符串。为什么答案显示字符串 "dog"大于 "cat"，然后 "cat"大于 "dog"？，我们在Stack Overflow上找到一个类似的问题： https://stackoverflow.com/questions/34232689/
