    The &lt;functional&gt; header contains many additional functors
    and helper functions, extending section 20.3.  They are
    implemented in the file stl_function.h:
  </p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist"><li class="listitem"><p><code class="code">identity_element</code> for addition and multiplication. *
  </p></li><li class="listitem"><p>The functor <code class="code">identity</code>, whose <code class="code">operator()</code>
      returns the argument unchanged. *
  </p></li><li class="listitem"><p>Composition functors <code class="code">unary_function</code> and
      <code class="code">binary_function</code>, and their helpers <code class="code">compose1</code>
      and <code class="code">compose2</code>. *
    </p></li><li class="listitem"><p><code class="code">select1st</code> and <code class="code">select2nd</code>, to strip pairs. *
  </p></li><li class="listitem"><p><code class="code">project1st</code> and <code class="code">project2nd</code>. * </p></li><li class="listitem"><p>A set of functors/functions which always return the same result.  They
      are <code class="code">constant_void_fun</code>, <code class="code">constant_binary_fun</code>,
      <code class="code">constant_unary_fun</code>, <code class="code">constant0</code>,

  20.4.1 can use several different allocators; they are described on the
   main extensions page.
</p><p>
  20.4.3 is extended with a special version of
  <code class="code">get_temporary_buffer</code> taking a second argument.  The
  argument is a pointer, which is ignored, but can be used to specify
  the template type (instead of using explicit function template
  arguments like the standard version does).  That is, in addition to
</p><pre class="programlisting">
get_temporary_buffer&lt;int&gt;(5);
</pre><p>
you can also use
</p><pre class="programlisting">
get_temporary_buffer(5, (int*)0);
</pre><p>
  A class <code class="code">temporary_buffer</code> is given in stl_tempbuf.h. *
</p><p>
  The specialized algorithms of section 20.4.4 are extended with
  <code class="code">uninitialized_copy_n</code>. *
