Regarding the find function

#1

is it necessary to use auto variable with find function?

#2

hey @aslesha.j7 it is not necessary if you know what find will return then you can declare that kind of iterator variable, for example if you want to use find with vector then vector::iterator can be used instead of auto.

#3

is it the case that find only takes iterator variable?

#4

Here is the return value of the find function
An iterator to the first element in the range that compares equal to val.
If no elements match, the function returns last.
Since find returns the iterator, it will only takes iterator values.
