std::ranges::min() algorithm

// (1)
constexpr const T&
min( const T& a, const T& b, Comp comp = {}, Proj proj = {} );

// (2)
constexpr const T
min( std::initializer_list<T> r, Comp comp = {}, Proj proj = {} );

// (3)
constexpr ranges::range_value_t<R> min( R&& r, Comp comp = {}, Proj proj = {} );

The type of arguments are generic and have the following constraints:

  • T - (none)
  • Proj - (none)
  • Comp - (none)

The Proj and Comp template arguments have, the following default types for all overloads: std::identity, ranges::less.

Additionally, each overload has the following constraints:

  • (1) - indirect_strict_weak_order<Comp, projected<const T*, Proj>>
  • (2) - indirect_strict_weak_order<Comp, projected<const T*, Proj>>
  • (3) - indirectly_copyable_storable<ranges::iterator_t<R>, ranges::range_value_t<R>*> && indirect_strict_weak_order<Comp, projected<ranges::iterator_t<R>, Proj>>

Returns the smaller of the given projected elements.

  • (1) Returns the smaller of a and b.

  • (2) Returns the first smallest element in the initializer list r.

  • (3) Returns the first smallest value in the range r.

The function-like entities described on this page are niebloids.

Parameters

a
b

The values to compare.

r

The range of values to compare.

comp

Comparison to apply to the projected elements.

proj

Projection to apply to the elements.

Return value

  • (1) The smaller of a and b, according to the projection. If they are equivalent, returns a.
  • (3 - 4) The smallest element in r, according to the projection. If several values are equivalent to the smallest, returns the leftmost one.
Undefined Behavior

If the range is empty (as determined by ranges::distance(r)), the behavior is undefined.

Complexity

  • (1) Exactly one comparison.
  • (3 - 4) Exactly ranges::distance(r) - 1 comparisons.

Exceptions

(none)

};

inline constexpr min_fn min;

Notes

Undefined Behavior

Capturing the result of std::ranges::min by reference produces a dangling reference if one of the parameters is a temporary and that parameter is returned:

int n = 1;
const int& r = std::ranges::min(n - 1, n + 1); // r is dangling

Examples

Main.cpp
#include <algorithm>
#include <iostream>
#include <string>

int main()
{
namespace ranges = std::ranges;
using namespace std::string_view_literals;

std::cout << "smaller of 1 and 9999: " << ranges::min(1, 9999) << '\n'
<< "smaller of 'a', and 'b': '" << ranges::min('a', 'b') << "'\n"
<< "shortest of \"foo\", \"bar\", and \"hello\": \""
<< ranges::min({ "foo"sv, "bar"sv, "hello"sv }, {},
&std::string_view::size) << "\"\n";
}
Output
smaller of 1 and 9999: 1
smaller of 'a', and 'b': 'a'
shortest of "foo", "bar", and "hello": "foo"
