Higher Order Functions
Higher-order functions are a fundamental pattern in functional programming, and C++ supports them through its type system and standard library utilities. A higher-order function is any function that either takes one or more functions as arguments, or returns a function as its result. This enables you to write flexible, reusable code by abstracting behavior as parameters. Higher-order functions are widely used in C++ to customize algorithms, manage callbacks, and implement strategies or policies in a generic way.

By treating functions as first-class citizens, you can decouple control flow from implementation details, making your code more modular and expressive.
