template<typename _BidirectionalIterator >
void std::inplace_merge ( _BidirectionalIterator  __first,
_BidirectionalIterator  __middle,
_BidirectionalIterator  __last 
)

Merges two sorted ranges in place.

Parameters:
first An iterator.
middle Another iterator.
last Another iterator.
Returns:
Nothing.

Merges two sorted and consecutive ranges, [first,middle) and [middle,last), and puts the result in [first,last). The output will be sorted. The sort is stable, that is, for equivalent elements in the two ranges, elements from the first range will always come before elements from the second.

If enough additional memory is available, this takes (last-first)-1 comparisons. Otherwise an NlogN algorithm is used, where N is distance(first,last).

template<typename _BidirectionalIterator , typename _Compare >
void std::inplace_merge ( _BidirectionalIterator  __first,
_BidirectionalIterator  __middle,
_BidirectionalIterator  __last,
_Compare  __comp 
)

Merges two sorted ranges in place.

Parameters:
first An iterator.
middle Another iterator.
last Another iterator.
comp A functor to use for comparisons.
Returns:
Nothing.

Merges two sorted and consecutive ranges, [first,middle) and [middle,last), and puts the result in [first,last). The output will be sorted. The sort is stable, that is, for equivalent elements in the two ranges, elements from the first range will always come before elements from the second.

If enough additional memory is available, this takes (last-first)-1 comparisons. Otherwise an NlogN algorithm is used, where N is distance(first,last).

The comparison function should have the same effects on ordering as the function used for the initial sort.

(Quoted from [25.3.8]/1.) If the iterators are all character pointers, then this is an inline call to memcmp.
