<p>Andrei's description of policies describe their power as being derived
from their granularity and orthogonality. Boost has probably diluted the
distinction in the <a href="../libs/utility/iterator_adaptors.htm">Iterator
Adaptors</a> library, where we transmit all of an adapted iterator's
behavior in a single policies class.
<h2><a name="adaptors">Adaptors</a></h2>
<p>An <i>adaptor</i> is a class template which builds on another type or
types to provide a new interface or behavioral variant. Examples of
standard adaptors are <a href=
"http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/ReverseIterator.html">std::reverse_iterator</a>,
which adapts an iterator type by reversing its motion upon
increment/decrement, and <a href=
"http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/stack.html">std::stack</a>, which adapts a
container to provide a simple stack interface.
<p>A more comprehensive review of the adaptors in the standard can be found
