Algorithm
Places all of the entities that satisfy the given predicate before all of the entities that do not.
None
#include <algorithm>
template <class BidirectionalIterator, class Predicate>
BidirectionalIterator
partition (BidirectionalIterator first,
BidirectionalIterator last,
Predicate pred);
For the range [first, last), the partition algorithm places all elements that satisfy pred before all elements that do not satisfy pred. It returns an iterator that is one past the end of the group of elements that satisfy pred. In other words, partition returns i such that for any iterator j in the range [first, i), pred(*j) == true, and, for any iterator k in the range [i, last), pred(*j) == false.
Note that partition does not necessarily maintain the relative order of the elements that match and elements that do not match the predicate. Use the algorithm stable_partition if relative order is important.
The partition algorithm does at most (last - first)/2 swaps, and applies the predicate exactly last - first times.

If your compiler does not support default template parameters, then you always need to supply the Allocator template argument. For instance, you need to write:
deque<int, allocator<int> >
instead of:
deque<int>
If your compiler does not support namespaces, then you do not need the using declaration for std.
