binary_function Program in C++

This C++ program illustrates binary function object base. The Compare inherits from the binary_function object base defined in functional library. The numbers taken from input are passed to the function object and a boolean result is returned. If the result is true, the numbers are equal otherwise they are unequal.

Here is the source code of the C++ program illustrates unary function object base. The C++ program is successfully compiled and run on a Linux system. The program output is also shown below.

    if(r == true)

```
        std::cout << " are equal.\n";
```
```
    else
```
```
        std::cout << " are unequal.\n";
```
```
}
```

$ a.out
Enter a = 10
Enter b = 20
Numbers 10 and 20 are unequal.
$ a.out
Enter a = 10
Enter b = 10
Numbers 10 and 10 are equal.
