+ </p><p>There are four generalized functions in the &lt;numeric&gt; header
+ that follow the same conventions as those in &lt;algorithm&gt;. Each
+ of them is overloaded: one signature for common default operations,
+ and a second for fully general operations. Their names are
+ self-explanatory to anyone who works with numerics on a regular basis:
+ </p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist"><li class="listitem"><p><code class="code">accumulate</code></p></li><li class="listitem"><p><code class="code">inner_product</code></p></li><li class="listitem"><p><code class="code">chapterial_sum</code></p></li><li class="listitem"><p><code class="code">adjacent_difference</code></p></li></ul></div><p>Here is a simple example of the two forms of <code class="code">accumulate</code>.
+ </p><pre class="programlisting">
+ int ar[50];
+ int someval = somefunction();
+
+ // ...initialize members of ar to something...
+
+ int sum = std::accumulate(ar,ar+50,0);
+ int sum_stuff = std::accumulate(ar,ar+50,someval);
+ int product = std::accumulate(ar,ar+50,1,std::multiplies&lt;int&gt;());
+ </pre><p>The first call adds all the members of the array, using zero as an
+ initial value for <code class="code">sum</code>. The second does the same, but uses
+ <code class="code">someval</code> as the starting value (thus, <code class="code">sum_stuff == sum +
+ someval</code>). The final call uses the second of the two signatures,
+ and multiplies all the members of the array; here we must obviously
+ use 1 as a starting value instead of 0.
+ </p><p>The other three functions have similar dual-signature forms.
