Basic iteration techniques with std::vector

Now that we understand the different types of iterators available, let’s explore the essential concept of iterating over data structures. Iteration is a fundamental technique in programming that allows developers to access and manipulate each element in a data structure efficiently. Specifically for std::vector, iteration is crucial due to its dynamic nature and widespread use in C++ applications. By mastering iteration, you can harness the full potential of std::vector, enabling operations such as searching, sorting, and modifying elements with precision and ease. This section aims to deepen your understanding of why iteration is a crucial skill in managing and utilizing data structures effectively, setting the stage for more advanced applications in your programs.
