24 Ranges library [ranges]

A range adaptor closure object is a unary function object that accepts a viewable_­range argument and returns a view.

For a range adaptor closure object C and an expression R such that decltype((R)) models viewable_­range, the following expressions are equivalent and yield a view: C(R) R | C

Given an additional range adaptor closure object D, the expression C | D is well-formed and produces another range adaptor closure object such that the following two expressions are equivalent: R | C | D R | (C | D)

A range adaptor object is a customization point object ([customization.point.object]) that accepts a viewable_­range as its first argument and returns a view.

If a range adaptor object accepts only one argument, then it is a range adaptor closure object.

If a range adaptor object accepts more than one argument, then the following expressions are equivalent: adaptor(range, args...) adaptor(args...)(range) range | adaptor(args...)

In this case, adaptor(args...) is a range adaptor closure object.
