7 Expressions [expr]

7.5 Primary expressions [expr.prim]

7.5.7 Requires expressions [expr.prim.req]

7.5.7.2 Simple requirements [expr.prim.req.simple]

1
#
A simple-requirement asserts the validity of an expression.
[Note 1:
The enclosing requires-expression will evaluate to false if substitution of template arguments into the expression fails.
— end note]
[Example 1: template<typename T> concept C = requires (T a, T b) { a + b; // C<T> is true if a + b is a valid expression }; — end example]
2
#
A requirement that starts with a requires token is never interpreted as a simple-requirement.
[Note 2:
This simplifies distinguishing between a simple-requirement and a nested-requirement.
