Convert string containing bits to vector<bool>

Question

I have a std::string of bits like 01001110. How to make it std::vector<bool>?

Loop through the string, compare the element to '1', and add the boolean result to your vector. This is a trivial loop, please show a little effort. — Barmar

Just be aware that std::vector<bool> is not a real container. — Fred Larson

std::string bits("10101011110");
std::vector<bool> myVec;
myVec.reserve(bits.size());
for(auto a : bits)
    myVec.push_back(a == '1');
