Boost String Algorithms Library

String manipulation is a common task in many programs. The standard library basic_string class comes with many member functions for performing some basic operations and acts as a compatible container for the generic algorithms in the standard library.

Despite this, certain common tasks are missing and the Boost String Algorithms library fills that gap. This month, Richard Thomson will give us an overview of the string algorithms in boost.
