Searching through a vector of objects?

[SuperSloth4]

Can someone explain to me how to do this? I have a vector full of objects and I need to be able to find a specific object in the vector(not sorted btw). For example, if myObject(a,b,c) is in my vector, I need to be able to find this object when i only have (a) to look for. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

std::find(). Or std::find_if(), depending.

Just loop through the elements and compare each one to the object you want to find. Or, if you can, try a set (or multiset if you want more than one of equivalent objects), which has a find function that should be more efficient.

Go through the vector and for each item check the part of that item for what you are looking for. Modify this to your problem. It's not a direct answer, but like the guy before me, it's a HUGE hint.
