==STL Background==
<Todo>The STL was created as a general purpose computation library that a focus on generic programming. The STL uses templates extensively to achieve compile time polymorphism. In general the library provide four components: algorithms, containers, functions and iterators. The library was, mostly, created by Alexander Stepanov due to his ideas about generic programming and its potential to revolutionize software development. Because of the ability of C++ to provide access to storage using pointers, C++ was used by Stepanov, even though the language was still relatively young at the time. After a long period of engineering and development of the library, it obtained final approval in July 1994 to become part of the language standard.
