Returns an iterator pointing to the first element in the range

[firstlast)

that is

not less

than (i.e. greater or equal to)

value

, or

last

if no such element is found. The range

[firstlast)

must be partitioned with respect to the expression

std::invoke(comp, std::invoke(proj, element), value)

, i.e., all elements for which the expression is

true

must precede all elements for which the expression is

false

. A fully-sorted range meets this criterion.

The function-like entities described on this page are algorithm function objects (informally known as niebloids), that is:

[edit] Parameters first, last - the iterator-sentinel pair defining the partially-ordered range of elements to examine r - the partially-ordered range to examine value - value to compare the projected elements to comp - comparison predicate to apply to the projected elements proj - projection to apply to the elements [edit] Return value

Iterator pointing to the first element that is not less than value, or last if no such element is found.

[edit] Complexity

The number of comparisons and applications of the projection performed are logarithmic in the distance between first and last (at most log2(last - first) + O(1) comparisons and applications of the projection). However, for an iterator that does not model random_access_iterator, the number of iterator increments is linear.

[edit] Notes

On a range that's fully sorted (or more generally, partially ordered with respect to value) after projection, std::ranges::lower_bound implements the binary search algorithm. Therefore, std::ranges::binary_search can be implemented in terms of it.
