#include <iostream>
#include <list>
int main()
{
std::list<char> coll; // list container for chars
// insert elements with the values 'a' to 'z'
for (char c='a'; c<='z'; ++c) {
coll.push_back(c);
}
// output all elements followed by a space
// - iterator iterates over all elements
std::list<char>::iterator pos;
for (pos = coll.begin(); pos != coll.end(); ++pos) {
std::cout << *pos << ' ';
}
// finally output a newline
std::cout << std::endl;
}
