    Is string class a container too ?

    std::string is really just a typedef for std::basic_string<char>

    I believe std::string meets most of the requirements for a container. I'm not sure it meets all of them.

    Re: string class

    From the 2003 standard:

    21.3 paragraph 2

    The class template basic_string conforms to the requirements of a Sequence, as specified in (23.1.1).
    Additionally, because the iterators supported by basic_string are random access iterators (24.1.5),
    basic_string conforms to the the requirements of a Reversible Container, as specified in (23.1).
