How can I get a vector with wanted size?

Question

/*Hello, I need your help?
Task:
There is int vector and I try to make it shorter by deleting max element in it. Do this steps until dont get vector with proper length.
d-original length of vector
n1-wanted length of vector*/
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
using namespace std;

int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
vector<int> v;
v={-10, -9, -9, 2, -10, -5, 7, -9, 7, -10, -5, -4, 2, 10, 9, 1, -4, 9, -5, -7, 0, 1, 6, -4};
int d=v.size(), n, n1=22, d2=d;
cout<<d<<endl;
for(int i=0; i<d; i++) {
cout<<v[i]<<" ";
}
cout<<endl;

while(d2 > n1) {
n=v[0];
for(int i1=d-1; i1>0; i1--) {
if(v[i1]>n)
n=v[i1];
}
cout<<"n: "<<n<<" d: "<<d<<endl;
for(int i=d; i>0; i--)
if(v[i]==n)
for(int j=i; j<d-1; j++) {
v[j]=v[j+1];
i--;
}
d--;
d2--;
}
cout<<v.size()<<" "<<d<<endl;
for(unsigned i=0; i<v.size(); i++)

TeaserCode Literally the sentence you described the task, can be expressed by these 4 lines of code:

size_t max_size = 10;
while (v.size() > max_size) {
auto max = max_element(v.begin(), v.end());
v.erase(max);
}

Answer 3

No true, because you have to find max element in every iteration, and when you find it cut the size of vector for one element until you reach wanted length.
