std::experimental::ranges::distance(3)

NAME
std::experimental::ranges::distance - std::experimental::ranges::distance

Synopsis
   Defined in header <experimental/ranges/iterator>
   namespace {
                        (ranges TS)
   constexpr /* unspecified */ distance = /* unspecified */; (customization
                        point object)
   }
   Call signature
   template< Iterator I, Sentinel<I> S > (1)
   constexpr ranges::difference_type_t<I> distance(I first, S last);
   template< Range R >
   constexpr ranges::difference_type_t<ranges::iterator_t<R>> (2)
   distance(R&& r);
   template< SizedRange R >
   constexpr ranges::difference_type_t<ranges::iterator_t<R>> (3)
   distance(R&& r);
   Returns the distance between first and last, or between the beginning and the end of
   the range r.
   1) If SizedSentinel<S, I> is satisfied, equivalent to return last - first;.
   Otherwise, returns the number of increments needed to get from first to last. If
   [first, last) does not denote a range, then I and S must be the same type and must
   model SizedSentinel, and [last, first) must denote a range. Otherwise, the behavior
   is undefined.
   2) Equivalent to return ranges::distance(ranges::begin(r), ranges::end(r));
   3) Equivalent to return ranges::size(r);
   Instantiating overloads (2-3) may be ill-formed if the header
   <experimental/ranges/range> is not included before the point of instantiation.
  Customization point objects
   The name ranges::distance denotes a customization point object, which is a function
   object of a literal Semiregular class type (denoted, for exposition purposes, as
   DistanceT). All instances of DistanceT are equal. Thus, ranges::distance can be
   copied freely and its copies can be used interchangeably.
   Given a set of types Args..., if std::declval<Args>()... meet the requirements for
   arguments to ranges::distance above, DistanceT will satisfy ranges::Invocable<const
   DistanceT, Args...>. Otherwise, no function call operator of DistanceT participates
   in overload resolution.
   In every translation unit in which ranges::distance is defined, it refers to the
   same instance of the customization point object. (This means that it can be used
   freely in things like inline functions and function templates without violating the
   one-definition rule.)

Return value
   The distance between first and last, or between the beginning and the end of the
   range r.
