std::ranges::min - cppreference.com

Call signature

(1) (since C++20) (2) (since C++20) (3) (since C++20)

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 algorithm function objects (informally known as niebloids), that is:

[edit] 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 [edit] Return value

1) The smaller of a and b, according to the projection. If they are equivalent, returns a.

2,3)

The smallest element in

r

, according to the projection. If several values are equivalent to the smallest, returns the leftmost one. If the range is empty (as determined by

ranges::distance(r)

), the behavior is undefined.

[edit] Complexity

1) Exactly one comparison.

[edit] Notes

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 + 2, n * 2); // r is dangling
[edit] Example
#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"
