std::ranges::partition(3) C++ Standard Libary std::ranges::partition(3)

NAME

std::ranges::partition - std::ranges::partition

Synopsis


Defined in header <algorithm>
Call signature
template< std::permutable I, std::sentinel_for<I> S, class Proj =
std::identity,


std::indirect_unary_predicate<std::projected<I, Proj>> (1) (since C++20)
Pred >
constexpr ranges::subrange<I>


partition( I first, S last, Pred pred, Proj proj = {} );
template< ranges::forward_range R, class Proj = std::identity,


std::indirect_unary_predicate<
std::projected<ranges::iterator_t<R>, Proj>> Pred > (2) (since C++20)
requires std::permutable<ranges::iterator_t<R>>
constexpr ranges::borrowed_subrange_t<R>


partition( R&& r, Pred pred, Proj proj = {} );


1) Reorders the elements in the range [first, last) in such a way that the
projection proj of all elements for which the predicate pred returns true precede
the projection proj of elements for which predicate pred returns false. Relative
order of elements is not preserved.
2) Same as (1), but uses r as the source range, as if using ranges::begin(r) as
first and ranges::end(r) as last.


The function-like entities described on this page are niebloids, that is:


* Explicit template argument lists cannot be specified when calling any of them.
* None of them are visible to argument-dependent lookup.
* When any of them are found by normal unqualified lookup as the name to the left
of the function-call operator, argument-dependent lookup is inhibited.


In practice, they may be implemented as function objects, or with special compiler
extensions.

Parameters


first, last - the range of elements to reorder
r - the range of elements to reorder
pred - predicate to apply to the projected elements
proj - projection to apply to the elements

Return value


A subrange starting with an iterator to the first element of the second group and
finishing with an iterator equal to last. (2) returns std::ranges::dangling if r is
an rvalue of non-borrowed_range type.

Complexity


Given N = ranges::distance(first, last), exactly N applications of the predicate and
projection. At most N / 2 swaps if I models ranges::bidirectional_iterator, and at
most N swaps otherwise.

Possible implementation


struct partition_fn
{
template<std::permutable I, std::sentinel_for<I> S, class Proj = std::identity,
std::indirect_unary_predicate<std::projected<I, Proj>> Pred>
constexpr ranges::subrange<I>
operator()(I first, S last, Pred pred, Proj proj = {}) const
{
first = ranges::find_if_not(first, last, std::ref(pred), std::ref(proj));
if (first == last)
return {first, first};


for (auto i = ranges::next(first); i != last; ++i)
{
if (std::invoke(pred, std::invoke(proj, *i)))
{
ranges::iter_swap(i, first);
++first;
}
}
return {std::move(first), std::move(last)};
}


template<ranges::forward_range R, class Proj = std::identity,
std::indirect_unary_predicate<
std::projected<ranges::iterator_t<R>, Proj>> Pred>
requires std::permutable<ranges::iterator_t<R>>
constexpr ranges::borrowed_subrange_t<R>
operator()(R&& r, Pred pred, Proj proj = {}) const
{
return (*this)(ranges::begin(r), ranges::end(r),
std::ref(pred), std::ref(proj));
}
};

Example

// Run this code


#include <algorithm>
#include <forward_list>
#include <functional>
#include <iostream>
#include <iterator>
#include <ranges>
#include <vector>


namespace ranges = std::ranges;


template<class I, std::sentinel_for<I> S, class Cmp = ranges::less>
requires std::sortable<I, Cmp>
void quicksort(I first, S last, Cmp cmp = Cmp {})
{
using reference = std::iter_reference_t<I>;


if (first == last)
return;


auto size = ranges::distance(first, last);
auto pivot = ranges::next(first, size - 1);
ranges::iter_swap(pivot, ranges::next(first, size / 2));


auto tail = ranges::partition(first, pivot, [=](reference em)
{
return std::invoke(cmp, em, *pivot); // em < pivot
});


ranges::iter_swap(pivot, tail.begin());
quicksort(first, tail.begin(), std::ref(cmp));
quicksort(ranges::next(tail.begin()), last, std::ref(cmp));
}


int main()
{
std::ostream_iterator<int> cout {std::cout, " "};


std::vector<int> v {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9};
std::cout << "Original vector: \t";
ranges::copy(v, cout);


auto tail = ranges::partition(v, [](int i) { return i % 2 == 0; });


std::cout << "\nPartitioned vector: \t";
ranges::copy(ranges::begin(v), ranges::begin(tail), cout);
std::cout << "│ ";
ranges::copy(tail, cout);


std::forward_list<int> fl {1, 30, -4, 3, 5, -4, 1, 6, -8, 2, -5, 64, 1, 92};
std::cout << "\nUnsorted list: \t\t";
ranges::copy(fl, cout);


quicksort(ranges::begin(fl), ranges::end(fl), ranges::greater {});
std::cout << "\nQuick-sorted list: \t";
ranges::copy(fl, cout);


std::cout << '\n';
}

Possible output:


Original vector: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Partitioned vector: 0 8 2 6 4 │ 5 3 7 1 9
Unsorted list: 1 30 -4 3 5 -4 1 6 -8 2 -5 64 1 92
Quick-sorted list: 92 64 30 6 5 3 2 1 1 1 -4 -4 -5 -8
