How to use the remove, begin, and end STL functions in Visual C++

   <algorithm>

   template<class ForwardIterator, class Type> inline
   ForwardIterator remove(ForwardIterator first,

                          ForwardIterator last,
                          const T& value)

// Functions:
// 
//   remove - remove all elements from the sequence that match value.
//   begin - Returns an iterator that points to the first element in a
//           sequence.
//   end - Returns an iterator that points one past the end of a sequence.
