NAME¶

std::ranges::views::keys,std::ranges::keys_view - std::ranges::views::keys,std::ranges::keys_view

Synopsis¶

Defined in header <ranges>
template< class R > (1) (since C++20)
using keys_view = ranges::elements_view<R, 0>;
namespace views {

inline constexpr auto keys = ranges::elements<0>; (2) (since C++20)

}

Takes a view of tuple-like values (e.g. std::tuple or std::pair), and produces a
view with a value-type of the first element of the adapted view's value-type.

1) An alias for ranges::elements_view<R, 0>.
2) RangeAdaptorObject (and also RangeAdaptorClosureObject). The expression
views::keys(e) is expression-equivalent to keys_view<views::all_t<decltype((e))>>{e}
for any suitable subexpression e.

Notes¶

keys_view can be useful for extracting keys from associative containers, e.g.

std::map<std::string, int> map{{"one", 1}, {"two", 2}};

for (auto const& key : std::views::keys(map))
std::cout << key << ' ';
// prints: one two

Example¶

Displays values for each type of quark in particle physics.

// Run this code

#include <iomanip>
#include <iostream>
#include <locale>
#include <ranges>
#include <string>
#include <tuple>
#include <vector>

int main()
{
const std::vector<std::tuple<std::string, double, bool>> quark_mass_charge
{
// name, MeV/c², has positive electric-charge:
{"up", 2.3, true}, {"down", 4.8, false},
{"charm", 1275, true}, {"strange", 95, false},
{"top", 173'210, true}, {"bottom", 4'180, false},
};

std::cout.imbue(std::locale("en_US.utf8"));
std::cout << "Quark name: │ ";
for (std::string const& name : std::views::keys(quark_mass_charge))
std::cout << std::setw(9) << name << " │ ";

std::cout << "\n" "Mass MeV/c²: │ ";
for (const double mass : std::views::values(quark_mass_charge))
std::cout << std::setw(9) << mass << " │ ";

std::cout << "\n" "E-charge: │ ";
for (const bool pos : std::views::elements<2>(quark_mass_charge))
std::cout << std::setw(9) << (pos ? "+2/3" : "-1/3") << " │ ";
std::cout << '\n';
}

Output:¶

Quark name: │ up │ down │ charm │ strange │ top │ bottom │
Mass MeV/c²: │ 2.3 │ 4.8 │ 1,275 │ 95 │ 173,210 │ 4,180 │
E-charge: │ +2/3 │ -1/3 │ +2/3 │ -1/3 │ +2/3 │ -1/3 │
