Class Templates
•With class templates, we simply write one class and shift the burden of creating multiple instances of
that class to the
compiler.
•The compiler automatically generates as many instances of that class as is required to meet the client's demands without unnecessary
duplication.
•Specialized (and partially specialized) template classes can be used to handle special cases that
arise.
•The syntax for implementing class templates is similar to that of defining and declaring classes themselves. We simply preface the class definition or
declaration with
the keyword template followed by a parameterized list of type dependencies.
