What is C++ Standard Library and STL?

The C++ Standard Library is a comprehensive collection of classes and functions, extending the core language with ready-to-use tools for common programming tasks. A crucial part of the Standard Library is the Standard Template Library (STL), which offers pre-built, templatized components like containers (vectors, lists, maps), algorithms (sorting, searching), and iterators to work with those containers. The STL promotes code reuse and efficiency by providing generic implementations that can work with various data types, saving developers significant time and effort.
