I have written a function template and an explicitly specialized templated function which simply takes in 3 arguments and calculates the biggest among them and prints it.
The specialized function is causing an error,whereas the template works fine. But I want to work with char* type.
This is the error I get=>
error: template-id ‘Max<>’ for ‘void Max(char, char, char)’ does not match any template declaration
Following is my code:
template <typename T>
void Max(T& a,T& b,T& c)
{
if(a > b && a >> c)
{
cout << "Max: " << a << endl;
}
else if(b > c && b > a)
{
cout << "Max: " << b << endl;
}
else
{
cout << "Max: " << c << endl;
}
}
template <>
void Max(char* a,char* b,char* c)
{
if(strcmp(a,b) > 0 )
{
cout << "Max: " << a << endl;
}
else if(strcmp(b,c) > 0)
{
cout << "Max: " << b << endl;
}
else
{
cout << "Max: " << b << endl;
}
}
