C++ tasks from Yandex

Task 1

At an interview I was asked how to by a given vector of integers build resulting vector containing the products of all the elements except current. Below I provided my solution in C++:

#include <vector>
#include <iostream>

using V = std::vector<int>;

V func(const V& v)
{
    V result;
    result.resize(v.size());

    int product = 1;

    for (size_t pos = 0; pos != v.size(); ++pos)
    {
        result[pos] = product;

        int a = v[pos];
        product *= a;
    }
