I'm using the HDF5 File System for holding time series information. Rather than writing my own binary search implementation to find particular elements within a particular saved time series, I thought it would be clever if I designed the interface so I could use the Standard Template Library's 'find' iterator. If I can make the STL's 'find' work, then all the other iterators should work just as well, and thus I'll have an easy mechanism to access time series with very little programming involved.
