24.7.9 Drop view [range.drop]

24.7.9.1 Overview [range.drop.overview]

drop_­view produces a view excluding the first N elements from another view, or an empty range if the adapted view contains fewer than N elements.
The name views​::​drop denotes a range adaptor object ([range.adaptor.object]).
Let E and F be expressions, let T be remove_­cvref_­t<decltype((E))>, and let D be range_­difference_­t<decltype((E))>.
If decltype((F)) does not model convertible_­to<D>, views​::​drop(E, F) is ill-formed.
Otherwise, the expression views​::​drop(E, F) is expression-equivalent to:
[Example 1: auto ints = views::iota(0) | views::take(10); auto latter_half = drop_view{ints, 5}; for (auto i : latter_half) { cout << i << ' '; // prints 5 6 7 8 9 } — end example]
