<A NAME="sec4"><H3>Description</H3></A>
<P>The <SAMP>for_each()</SAMP> algorithm applies the function object <SAMP>f</SAMP> to each value in the range <SAMP>[start, finish)</SAMP>, where <SAMP>start</SAMP> and <SAMP>finish</SAMP> are iterators that define the sequence. Since this a non-mutating algorithm, the function <SAMP>f</SAMP> cannot make any modifications to the sequence, but it can achieve results through side effects (such as copying or printing). If <SAMP>f</SAMP> returns a result, the result is ignored.</P>
<P><SAMP>for_each()</SAMP> returns the function object <SAMP>f</SAMP>.</P>
<A NAME="sec5"><H3>Complexity</H3></A>
<P>The function object <SAMP>f</SAMP> is applied exactly <SAMP>finish - start</SAMP> times.</P>
