public member function

<array>

std::array::back
      reference back();const_reference back() const;

Access last element

Returns a reference to the last element in the array container.

Unlike member array::end, which returns an iterator just past this element, this function returns a direct reference.

Calling this function on an empty container causes undefined behavior.



Parameters none

Return value A reference to the last element in the array.

If the array object is const-qualified, the function returns a const_reference. Otherwise, it returns a reference.

Member types reference and const_reference are the reference types to the elements of the array (see array member types).

// array::back
#include <iostream>
#include <array>

int main ()
{
  std::array<int,3> myarray = {5, 19, 77};

  std::cout << "front is: " << myarray.front() << std::endl;   // 5
  std::cout << "back is: " << myarray.back() << std::endl;     // 77

  myarray.back() = 50;

  std::cout << "myarray now contains:";
  for ( int& x : myarray ) std::cout << ' ' << x;
  std::cout << '\n';

  return 0;
}

Output:
front is: 5
back is: 77
myarray now contains: 5 19 50


Complexity Constant.

Iterator validity No changes.

Data races The reference returned can be used to access or modify elements. Concurrently accessing or modifying different elements is safe.

Exception safety If the container is not empty, the function never throws exceptions (no-throw guarantee).
Otherwise, it causes undefined behavior.
