NAME¶

std::forward_list::end,std::forward_list::cend - std::forward_list::end,std::forward_list::cend

Synopsis¶

iterator end() noexcept; (1) (since C++11)
const_iterator end() const noexcept; (2) (since C++11)
const_iterator cend() const noexcept; (3) (since C++11)

Returns an iterator to the element following the last element of the forward_list.

This element acts as a placeholder; attempting to access it results in undefined
behavior.

Parameters¶

(none)

Return value¶

Iterator to the element following the last element.

Complexity¶

Constant.

Example¶

// Run this code

#include <algorithm>
#include <iostream>
#include <numeric>
#include <string>
#include <forward_list>

int main()
{
std::forward_list<int> nums{1, 2, 4, 8, 16};
std::forward_list<std::string> fruits{"orange", "apple", "raspberry"};
std::forward_list<char> empty;

// Print forward_list.
std::for_each(nums.begin(), nums.end(), [](const int n) { std::cout << n << ' '; });
std::cout << '\n';

// Sums all integers in the forward_list nums (if any), printing only the result.
std::cout << "Sum of nums: "
<< std::accumulate(nums.begin(), nums.end(), 0) << '\n';

// Prints the first fruit in the forward_list fruits, checking if there is any.
if (!fruits.empty())
std::cout << "First fruit: " << *fruits.begin() << '\n';

if (empty.begin() == empty.end())
std::cout << "forward_list 'empty' is indeed empty.\n";
}

Output:¶

1 2 4 8 16
Sum of nums: 31
First fruit: orange
forward_list 'empty' is indeed empty.
