constexpr std::sentinel_for<ranges::iterator_t<T>> auto cend(T&& t);

Returns a sentinel indicating the end of a const-qualified range.

Let CT be

  1. const std::remove_reference_t<T>& if the argument is a lvalue (i.e. T is an lvalue reference type),
  2. const T otherwise,

a call to ranges::cend is expression-equivalent to ranges::end(static_cast<CT&&>(t)).

If ranges::cend(e) is valid for an expression e, where decltype((e)) is T, then CT models std::ranges::range, and std::sentinel_for<S, I> is true in all cases, where S is decltype(ranges::cend(e)), and I is decltype(ranges::cbegin(e)).

Expression-equivalent

Expression e is expression-equivalent to expression f, if e and f have the same effects, either are both potentially-throwing or are both not potentially-throwing (i.e. noexcept(e) == noexcept(f)), and either are both constant subexpressions or are both not constant subexpressions.

Customization point objects

The name ranges::cend denotes a customization point object, which is a const function object of a literal semiregular class type (denoted, for exposition purposes, as cend_ftor). All instances of cend_ftor are equal. Thus, ranges::cend 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::cend above, cend_ftor will satisfy std::invocable<const cend_ftor&, Args...>. Otherwise, no function call operator of cend_ftor participates in overload resolution.

Example

#include <algorithm>
#include <iostream>
#include <ranges>
#include <vector>
 
int main() 
{
    std::vector<int> v = { 3, 1, 4 };
    namespace ranges = std::ranges;
    if (ranges::find(v, 5) != ranges::cend(v)) {
        std::cout << "found a 5 in vector v!\n";
    }
 
    int a[] = { 5, 10, 15 };
    if (ranges::find(a, 5) != ranges::cend(a)) {
        std::cout << "found a 5 in array a!\n";
    }
}

Output:

found a 5 in array a!
