Range
is a concept, and concepts useCamelCase
names, as do type parameters.nr
was used then I changed it.impl
indicates that a particular type (in this case,numeric_range
) fulfils the contract of a given concept (in this caseRange
).Ranges are things that you can call
begin
andend
on to get an iterator and a sentinel respectively, which might be the same type. e.g. for a raw array, the begin is a raw pointer to the first element and end is a raw pointer to the last element. for a string, the begin is a pointer to the first element and the length seen so far, while the end is just the length.map
is a generic function that works the same for allRange
s:or similar.
