public member function

std::list::push_back

<list>
void push_back ( const T& x );
Add element at the end
Adds a new element at the end of the list, right after its current last element. The content of this new element is initialized to a copy of x.

This effectively increases the list size by one.

Parameters

x
Value to be copied to the new element.
T is the first template parameter (the type of the elements stored in the container).

Return value

none

The storage for the new element is allocated using Allocator::allocate(), which may throw exceptions on failure (for the default allocator, bad_alloc is thrown if the allocation request does not succeed).

// list::push_back
#include <iostream>
#include <list>
using namespace std;

int main ()
{
  list<int> mylist;
  int myint;

  cout << "Please enter some integers (enter 0 to end):\n";

  do {
    cin >> myint;
    mylist.push_back (myint);
  } while (myint);

  cout << "mylist stores " << (int) mylist.size() << " numbers.\n";

  return 0;
}

The example uses push_back to add a new element to the container each time a new integer is read.

Complexity

Constant.
