public member function

<iterator>

std::reverse_iterator::operator-=
reverse_iterator& operator-= (difference_type n);

Retrocede iterator

Descreases the reverse_iterator by n element positions.

Internally, the function increases by n the base iterator kept by the object (as if applying operator+= to it).

Note that this function requires the base iterator to be a random-access iterator.



Parameters
n
Number of elements to offset.
Member type difference_type is an alias of the base iterator's own difference type.

Return value The reverse iterator itself (*this).

Example

// reverse_iterator::operator- example
#include <iostream>     // std::cout
#include <iterator>     // std::reverse_iterator
#include <vector>       // std::vector

int main () {
  std::vector<int> myvector;
  for (int i=0; i<10; i++) myvector.push_back(i);	// myvector: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

  typedef std::vector<int>::iterator iter_type;

  std::reverse_iterator<iter_type> rev_iterator = myvector.rend();

  rev_iterator -= 4;

  std::cout << "rev_iterator now points to: " << *rev_iterator << '\n';

  return 0;
}

Output:
rev_iterator now points to: 3


Data races Modifies the object.
The iterator returned can be used to access or modify pointed elements.

Exception safety Provides the same level of guarantee as increasing the base iterator.
