26.6.4 Iota view [range.iota]

26.6.4.1 Overview [range.iota.overview]

iota_view generates a sequence of elements by repeatedly incrementing an initial value.
The name views​::​iota denotes a customization point object ([customization.point.object]).
Given subexpressions E and F, the expressions views​::​iota(E) and views​::​iota(E, F) are expression-equivalent to iota_view(E) and iota_view(E, F), respectively.
[Example 1: for (int i : views::iota(1, 10)) cout << i << ' '; // prints 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 — end example]

26.6.4.2 Class template iota_view [range.iota.view]

namespace std::ranges { template<class I> concept decrementable = see below; // exposition only template<class I> concept advanceable = see below; // exposition only template<weakly_incrementable W, semiregular Bound = unreachable_sentinel_t> requires weakly-equality-comparable-with<W, Bound> && copyable<W> class iota_view : public view_interface<iota_view<W, Bound>> { private: // [range.iota.iterator], class iota_view​::​iterator struct iterator; // exposition only // [range.iota.sentinel], class iota_view​::​sentinel struct sentinel; // exposition only W value_ = W(); // exposition only Bound bound_ = Bound(); // exposition only public: iota_view() requires default_initializable<W> = default; constexpr explicit iota_view(W value); constexpr explicit iota_view(type_identity_t<W> value, type_identity_t<Bound> bound); constexpr explicit iota_view(iterator first, see below last); constexpr iterator begin() const; constexpr auto end() const; constexpr iterator end() const requires same_as<W, Bound>; constexpr auto size() const requires see below; }; template<class W, class Bound> requires (!is-integer-like<W> || !is-integer-like<Bound> || (is-signed-integer-like<W> == is-signed-integer-like<Bound>)) iota_view(W, Bound) -> iota_view<W, Bound>; }
Let IOTA-DIFF-T(W) be defined as follows:
  • If W is not an integral type, or if it is an integral type and sizeof(iter_difference_t<W>) is greater than sizeof(W), then IOTA-DIFF-T(W) denotes iter_difference_t<W>.
  • Otherwise, IOTA-DIFF-T(W) is a signed integer type of width greater than the width of W if such a type exists.
  • Otherwise, IOTA-DIFF-T(W) is an unspecified signed-integer-like type ([iterator.concept.winc]) of width not less than the width of W.
    [Note 1: 
    It is unspecified whether this type satisfies weakly_incrementable.
    — end note]
The exposition-only decrementable concept is equivalent to:
template<class I> concept decrementable = // exposition only incrementable<I> && requires(I i) { { --i } -> same_as<I&>; { i-- } -> same_as<I>; };
When an object is in the domain of both pre- and post-decrement, the object is said to be decrementable.
Let a and b be equal objects of type I.
I models decrementable only if
  • If a and b are decrementable, then the following are all true:
  • If a and b are incrementable, then bool(--(++a) == b).
The exposition-only advanceable concept is equivalent to:
template<class I> concept advanceable = // exposition only decrementable<I> && totally_ordered<I> && requires(I i, const I j, const IOTA-DIFF-T(I) n) { { i += n } -> same_as<I&>; { i -= n } -> same_as<I&>; I(j + n); I(n + j); I(j - n); { j - j } -> convertible_to<IOTA-DIFF-T(I)>; };
Let D be IOTA-DIFF-T(I).
Let a and b be objects of type I such that b is reachable from a after n applications of ++a, for some value n of type D.
I models advanceable only if
  • (a += n) is equal to b.
  • addressof(a += n) is equal to addressof(a).
  • I(a + n) is equal to (a += n).
  • For any two positive values x and y of type D, if I(a + D(x + y)) is well-defined, then I(a + D(x + y)) is equal to I(I(a + x) + y).
  • I(a + D(0)) is equal to a.
  • If I(a + D(n - 1)) is well-defined, then I(a + n) is equal to [](I c) { return ++c; }(I(a + D(n - 1))).
  • (b += -n) is equal to a.
  • (b -= n) is equal to a.
  • addressof(b -= n) is equal to addressof(b).
  • I(b - n) is equal to (b -= n).
  • D(b - a) is equal to n.
  • D(a - b) is equal to D(-n).
  • bool(a <= b) is true.
constexpr explicit iota_view(W value);
Preconditions: Bound denotes unreachable_sentinel_t or Bound() is reachable from value.
When W and Bound model totally_ordered_with, then bool(value <= Bound()) is true.
Effects: Initializes value_ with value.
constexpr explicit iota_view(type_identity_t<W> value, type_identity_t<Bound> bound);
Preconditions: Bound denotes unreachable_sentinel_t or bound is reachable from value.
When W and Bound model totally_ordered_with, then bool(value <= bound) is true.
Effects: Initializes value_ with value and bound_ with bound.
constexpr explicit iota_view(iterator first, see below last);
Effects: Equivalent to:
  • If same_as<W, Bound> is true, iota_view(first.value_, last.value_).
  • Otherwise, if Bound denotes unreachable_sentinel_t, iota_view(first.value_, last).
  • Otherwise, iota_view(first.value_, last.bound_).
Remarks: The type of last is:
constexpr iterator begin() const;
Effects: Equivalent to: return iterator{value_};
constexpr auto end() const;
Effects: Equivalent to: if constexpr (same_as<Bound, unreachable_sentinel_t>) return unreachable_sentinel; else return sentinel{bound_};
constexpr iterator end() const requires same_as<W, Bound>;
Effects: Equivalent to: return iterator{bound_};
constexpr auto size() const requires see below;
Effects: Equivalent to: if constexpr (is-integer-like<W> && is-integer-like<Bound>) return (value_ < 0) ? ((bound_ < 0) ? to-unsigned-like(-value_) - to-unsigned-like(-bound_) : to-unsigned-like(bound_) + to-unsigned-like(-value_)) : to-unsigned-like(bound_) - to-unsigned-like(value_); else return to-unsigned-like(bound_ - value_);
Remarks: The expression in the requires-clause is equivalent to: (same_as<W, Bound> && advanceable<W>) || (is-integer-like<W> && is-integer-like<Bound>) || sized_sentinel_for<Bound, W>

iterator​::​iterator_concept is defined as follows:
  • If W models advanceable, then iterator_concept is random_access_iterator_tag.
  • Otherwise, if W models decrementable, then iterator_concept is bidirectional_iterator_tag.
  • Otherwise, if W models incrementable, then iterator_concept is forward_iterator_tag.
  • Otherwise, iterator_concept is input_iterator_tag.

Overloads for iter_move and iter_swap are omitted intentionally.
