Sorting a Vector of Custom Objects in C++: A Detailed Tutorial

This tutorial will guide you through the process of sorting a `std::vector` of custom objects in C++. We'll cover several approaches, including using the default comparison operator, defining custom comparison functions, and leveraging lambda expressions. We'll also discuss performance considerations and best practices.

*1. Defining the Custom Object*

First, we need to define our custom object (class or struct). Let's create a `Student` class with attributes like name, age, and GPA:



This defines a `Student` class with a name (string), age (integer), and GPA (double). We also include a helper `operator` to make printing `Student` objects easier.

*2. Creating a Vector of Custom Objects*

Now, let's create a `std::vector` containing several `Student` objects:



We use `emplace_back` to efficiently add `Student` objects to the vector, avoiding unnecessary temporary object creation. We also print the initial unsorted vector for comparison.

*3. Sorting Using the Default Comparison Operator (`operator`)*

The simplest way to sort is to use `std::sort` with the default comparison operator (`operator`). To make this work, you need to overload the `` operator for your custom class. This operator defines how two objects of your class should be compared.



*Explanation:*
We overloaded the `operator` to compare `Student` objects based on their `name`. You can change the logic inside the `operator` to sort by age or GPA, as shown in the comments.
`std::sort(students.begin(), students.end())` calls the `operator` to determine the order of elements. It uses an efficient sorting algorithm (usually introsort, a hybrid of quicksort, heapsort, and insertion sort).
**Important**: `std::sort` expects a **strict weak ordering**. This means that the comparison operator must satisfy the following properties:
*Irreflexivity:* `a a` must be false.
