NAME¶

std::ranges::contiguous_range - std::ranges::contiguous_range

Synopsis¶

Defined in header <ranges>
template< class T >

concept contiguous_range =
ranges::random_access_range<T> &&
std::contiguous_iterator<ranges::iterator_t<T>> && (since C++20)
requires(T& t) {
{ ranges::data(t) } ->
std::same_as<std::add_pointer_t<ranges::range_reference_t<T>>>;

};

The contiguous_range concept is a refinement of range for which ranges::begin
returns a model of contiguous_iterator and the customization point ranges::data is
usable.

Semantic requirements

T models contiguous_range only if given an expression e such that decltype((e)) is
T&, std::to_address(ranges::begin(e)) == ranges::data(e).

Example¶

// Run this code

#include <ranges>
#include <vector>
#include <array>
#include <deque>
#include <valarray>
#include <list>
#include <set>

template<typename T> concept CR = std::ranges::contiguous_range<T>;

int main()
{
int a[4];
static_assert(
CR<std::vector<int>> and
not CR<std::vector<bool>> and
not CR<std::deque<int>> and
CR<std::valarray<int>> and
CR<decltype(a)> and
not CR<std::list<int>> and
not CR<std::set<int>> and
CR<std::array<std::list<int>,42>>
);
}
