circular_buffer

编程有时需要使用定长的容器（fixed size container）。实现旋转容器可以像下面这样：

std::vector<T> vec(size);
vec[i % size] = newelem;

但boost的circular_buffer提供更多功能，我们不需要重复造*了（DRY）：

#include <boost/circular_buffer.hpp>

    boost::circular_buffer<int> cb();

    // Insert threee elements into the buffer.
    cb.push_back();
    std::cout << "1 inserted, size:" << cb.size() << endl;
    std::cout << "latest is " << cb[cb.size() - ] << endl;

    cb.push_back();
    std::cout << "2 inserted, size:" << cb.size() << endl;
    std::cout << "latest is " << cb[cb.size()-] << endl;

    cb.push_back();
    std::cout << "3 inserted, size:" << cb.size() << endl;
    std::cout << "latest is " << cb[cb.size()-] << endl;

    int a = cb[];  // a == 1
    int b = cb[];  // b == 2
    int c = cb[];  // c == 3

    std::cout << "1st is" << a << endl;
    std::cout << "2nd is" << b << endl;

    // The buffer is full now, so pushing subsequent
    // elements will overwrite the front-most elements.

    cb.push_back();  // Overwrite 1 with 4.
    std::cout << "4 inserted, size:" << cb.size() << endl;
    std::cout << "latest is " << cb[cb.size()-] << endl;

    cb.push_back();  // Overwrite 2 with 5.
    std::cout << "5 inserted, size:" << cb.size() << endl;
    std::cout << "latest is " << cb[cb.size()-] << endl;

    // The buffer now contains 3, 4 and 5.
    a = cb[];  // a == 3
    b = cb[];  // b == 4
    c = cb[];  // c == 5
    std::cout << "1st is" << a << endl;

    cb.pop_back();  // 5 is removed.
    cb.pop_front(); // 3 is removed.
    std::cout << "head and tail removed, size:" << cb.size() << endl;
    std::cout << "latest is " << cb[cb.size() - ] << endl;
    // Leaving only one element with value = 4.
    int d = cb[];  // d == 4
