A function object that binds an argument to a binary function.

The value of the parameter is passed to the object at the construction time and stored within the object. Whenever the function object is invoked though operator(), the stored value is passed as one of the arguments, the other argument is passed as an argument of operator(). The resulting function object is an unary function.

1) Binds the first parameter to the value `value` given at the construction of the object.
2) Binds the second parameter to the value `value` given at the construction of the object.

### Example

Run this code

    #include <iostream>
    #include <functional>
    #include <cmath>
    #include <vector>
    const double pi = std::acos(-1);
    int main()
    {
        // deprecated in C++11, removed in C++17
        std::binder1st<std::multiplies<double>> f1 = std::bind1st(
                                                       std::multiplies<double>(), pi / 180.);

        // C++11 replacement
        auto f2 = [](double a){ return a*pi/180.; };

        for(double n : {0, 30, 45, 60, 90, 180})
            std::cout << n << " deg = " << f1(n) << " rad (using binder) "
                                        << f2(n) << " rad (using lambda)\n";
    }

Output:

    0 deg = 0 rad (using binder) 0 rad (using lambda)
    30 deg = 0.523599 rad (using binder) 0.523599 rad (using lambda)
    45 deg = 0.785398 rad (using binder) 0.785398 rad (using lambda)
    60 deg = 1.0472 rad (using binder) 1.0472 rad (using lambda)
    90 deg = 1.5708 rad (using binder) 1.5708 rad (using lambda)
    180 deg = 3.14159 rad (using binder) 3.14159 rad (using lambda)
