In our program, we will compare every two vectors. In current

b.t.w the length of vector is variable.

Do you have to sort the vectors?

Yeah, what I want is to sort the vectors. Unfortunately, our code base
is written in C, and we use a dynamic array to represent a vector.
After profiling, I find that the vector comparison is not so efficient.



Why not something simple like:

#include <vector>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main(void)
{
vector < double > a;
vector < double > b;
a.resize(100);
b.resize(100);
size_t index;
for (index = 0; index < 100; index++)
{
a[index] = (double)index;
b[index] = (double) index;
if (index == 99) b[index]+=1.0;
}
if (a < b)
cout << "a is less than b" << endl;
else if (a > b)
cout << "a is greater than b" << endl;
else
cout << "a is equal to b" << endl;
return 0;
}
