Searches the range
[first,last)for the first sequence of count elements whose projected values are each equal to the given value according to the binary predicate pred.Same as (1), but uses r as the source range, as if using ranges::begin(r) as first and ranges::end(r) as last.
The function-like entities described on this page are algorithm function objects (informally known as niebloids), that is:
- Explicit template argument lists cannot be specified when calling any of them.
- None of them are visible to argument-dependent lookup.
- When any of them are found by normal unqualified lookup as the name to the left of the function-call operator, argument-dependent lookup is inhibited.
Contents
[edit] Parameters
| first, last | - | the iterator-sentinel pair defining the range of elements to examine (aka haystack) |
|---|---|---|
| r | - | the range of elements to examine (aka haystack) |
| count | - | the length of the sequence to search for |
| value | - | the value to search for (aka needle) |
| pred | - | the binary predicate that compares the projected elements with value |
| proj | - | the projection to apply to the elements of the range to examine |
[edit] Return value
- Returns std::ranges::subrange object that contains a pair of iterators in the range
[first,last)that designate the found subsequence.
If no such subsequence is found, returns std::ranges::subrange{last, last}.
If count <= 0, returns std::ranges::subrange{first, first}.
[edit] Complexity
Linear: at most ranges::distance(first, last) applications of the predicate and the projection.
[edit] Notes
An implementation can improve efficiency of the search in average if the iterators model std::random_access_iterator.
