STL: The C++ Standard Template Library

The STL (Standard Template Library) was originally a third-party library from HP and later SGI, before its incorporation into the C++ standard. The standard does not refer to it as “STL”, as it is merely a part of the standard library, but many people still use that term to distinguish it from the rest of the library (input/output streams [known as IOstreams], internationalization, diagnostics, the C library subset, etc.).
