std::ranges::take_view<V>::end

constexpr auto end() requires (!__SimpleView<V>);
(1) (since C++20)
constexpr auto end() const requires ranges::range<const V>;
(2) (since C++20)

Returns a sentinel or an iterator representing the end of the take_view. The end of the take_view is either one past the count-th element in the underlying range, or the end of the underlying range if the latter has less than count elements.

1) Returns a take_view::/*sentinel*/<false>, a std::default_sentinel_t, or a ranges::range_iterator_t<V>.
2) Returns a take_view::/*sentinel*/<true>, a std::default_sentinel_t, or a ranges::range_iterator_t<const V>.

Overload (1) does not participate in overload resolution if V is a simple view (that is, if V and const V are views with the same iterator and sentinel types).

Parameters

(none).

Return value

The result depends on the concepts satisfied by possible const-qualified underlying view type Base_, that is V (for overload (1)) or const V (for overload (2)).

Let base_ be the underlying view.

The underlying view satisfies ... random_access_range
yes no
sized_range yes ranges::begin(base_) +

ranges::range_difference_t<Base_>(this->size()).

std::default_sentinel
no 1) /*sentinel*/<false>{ranges::end(base_)} 2) /*sentinel*/<true>{ranges::end(base_)}

Example

#include <list>
#include <ranges>
#include <iterator>
#include <iostream>
#include <type_traits>
 
int main() {
    const auto list1 = { 3, 1, 4, 1, 5 };
    const auto seq1 = list1 | std::views::take(4);
    static_assert(std::ranges::sized_range<decltype(seq1)> and
                  std::ranges::random_access_range<decltype(seq1)> and
                  std::is_same_v<decltype(seq1.end()), decltype(list1.end())>);
    for (auto it = seq1.begin(); it != seq1.end(); std::cout << *it++ << ' '){ }
    std::cout << '\n';
 
    std::list list2 = { 2, 7, 1, 8, 2 };
    const auto seq2 = list2 | std::views::take(4);
    static_assert(std::ranges::sized_range<decltype(seq2)> and
                  not std::ranges::random_access_range<decltype(seq2)> and
                  std::is_same_v<decltype(seq2.end()), std::default_sentinel_t>);
    for (auto it = seq2.begin(); it != std::default_sentinel; std::cout << *it++ << ' '){ }
    std::cout << '\n';
}

Output:

3 1 4 1
2 7 1 8
