Modern way to filter STL container?

Question

Coming back to C++ after years of C# I was wondering what the modern - read: C++11 - way of filtering an array would be, i.e. how can we achieve something similar to this Li

Answer 1

Improved pjm code following underscore-d suggestions:

template 
Cont filter(const Cont &container, Pred predicate) {
    Cont result;
    std::copy_if(container.begin(), container.end(), std::back_inserter(result), predicate);
    return result;
}

Usage:

std::vector myVec = {1,4,7,8,9,0};

auto filteredVec = filter(myVec, [](int a) { return a > 5; });
