### Summary

Returns the result of dividing its first argument by its second.

None

### Synopsis

    #include <functional>
    template <class T>
    struct divides;

### Description

divides is a binary function object. Its `operator()` returns the result of dividing `x` by `y`. You can pass a divides object to any algorithm that requires a binary function. For example, the transform algorithm applies a binary operation to corresponding values in two collections and stores the result. divides would be used in that algorithm in the following manner:

    vector<int> vec1;
    vector<int> vec2;
    vector<int> vecResult;
    .
    .
    .
    transform(vec1.begin(), vec1.end(),
              vec2.begin(), vecResult.begin(),
              divides<int>());

After this call to transform, `vecResult[n]` contains `vec1[n]` divided by `vec2[n]`.

### Interface

    template <class T>
       struct divides : binary_function<T, T, T>
    {
       T operator() (const T&, const T&) const;
    };
