c++ template class explanation code example

Example 1: templates classes in c++

// function template
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

template <class T>
T GetMax (T a, T b) {
  T result;
  result = (a>b)? a : b;
  return (result);
}

int main () {
  int i=5, j=6, k;
  long l=10, m=5, n;
  k=GetMax<int>(i,j);
  n=GetMax<long>(l,m);
  cout << k << endl;
  cout << n << endl;
  return 0;
}

Example 2: templates of templates c++

namespace std {
  template<typename t> struct hash<MyClass<t>>
  {
  	size_t operator() (const MyClass<t>& c) const;
  }
