C++ Program to Demonstrate Splice Operation on Lists

This C++ program demonstrates the splice operation on std::list container. The splice operation removes the elements from one std::list and copies them into another. The program uses two versions of std::list::splice – one which moves only the element pointed by an iterator and second which moves the elements between the beginning and ending iterators.

Here is the source code of the C++ program which demonstrates the splice operation on std::list container. The C++ program is successfully compiled and run on a Linux system. The program output is also shown below.
