std::ranges::upper_bound - std::ranges::upper_bound

Synopsis

Defined in header <algorithm>
Call signature
template< std::forward_iterator I, std::sentinel_for<I> S,

class T, class Proj = std::identity,
std::indirect_strict_weak_order<
const T*, (1) (since C++20)
std::projected<I, Proj>> Comp = ranges::less >
constexpr I

upper_bound( I first, S last, const T& value, Comp comp = {}, Proj
proj = {} );
template< ranges::forward_range R, class T, class Proj =
std::identity,

std::indirect_strict_weak_order<
const T*, (2) (since C++20)
std::projected<ranges::iterator_t<R>, Proj>> Comp = ranges::less >
constexpr ranges::borrowed_iterator_t<R>

upper_bound( R&& r, const T& value, Comp comp = {}, Proj proj = {}
);

1) Returns an iterator pointing to the first element in the range [first, last) that
is greater than value, or last if no such element is found. The range [first, last)
must be partitioned with respect to the expression or !comp(value, element), 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.
2) Same as (1), but uses r as the source range, as if using ranges::begin(r) as
first and ranges::end(r) as last.

The function-like entities described on this page are niebloids, that is:

* Explicit template argument lists may not be specified when calling any of them.
* None of them is visible to argument-dependent lookup.
* When one of them is found by normal unqualified lookup for the name to the left
of the function-call operator, it inhibits argument-dependent lookup.

In practice, they may be implemented as function objects, or with special compiler
extensions.

Parameters

first, last - iterator-sentinel defining the partially-ordered range to examine
r - the partially-ordered range to examine
value - value to compare the elements to
pred - predicate to apply to the projected elements
proj - projection to apply to the elements

Return value

Iterator pointing to the first element that is greater than value, or last if no
such element is found.

Complexity

The number of comparisons and applications of the projection performed are
logarithmic in the distance between first and last (At most log
2(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.

Possible implementation

struct upper_bound_fn {
template<std::forward_iterator I, std::sentinel_for<I> S,
class T, class Proj = std::identity,
std::indirect_strict_weak_order<
const T*,
std::projected<I, Proj>> Comp = ranges::less>
constexpr I operator()( I first, S last, const T& value,
Comp comp = {}, Proj proj = {} ) const
{
I it;
std::iter_difference_t<I> count, step;
count = ranges::distance(first, last);

while (count > 0) {
it = first;
step = count / 2;
ranges::advance(it, step, last);
if (!comp(value, std::invoke(proj, *it))) {
first = ++it;
count -= step + 1;
}
else {
count = step;
}
}
return first;
}

Example

// Run this code

#include <algorithm>
#include <iostream>
#include <iterator>
#include <vector>

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

std::vector<int> data = { 1, 1, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 6 };

{
auto lower = ranges::lower_bound(data.begin(), data.end(), 4);
auto upper = ranges::upper_bound(data.begin(), data.end(), 4);

ranges::copy(lower, upper, std::ostream_iterator<int>(std::cout, " "));
std::cout << '\n';
}
{
auto lower = ranges::lower_bound(data, 3);
auto upper = ranges::upper_bound(data, 3);

ranges::copy(lower, upper, std::ostream_iterator<int>(std::cout, " "));
std::cout << '\n';
}
}

Output:

4 4 4
3 3 3 3
