std::ranges...::operator*(3)

okay so bestie, this page is std::ranges...::operator*(3), straight outta the C++ Standard Libary manual — section 3, and yes the manual spells it Libary, we’re not arguing with the source today 💅.

💖 NAME 💖

• std::ranges::chunk_view::iterator::operator* — the dereference bestie in question
• std::ranges::chunk_view::iterator::operator* — yes, it’s listed twice, and we respect the duplication 🫶

🌀 Synopsis 🌀

constexpr value_type operator*() const;  (since C++23)

This one returns the current element in the chunk_view ✨

Let current_, end_, and n_ be the underlying data members. Write those names down, they matter.

Equivalent to:

return views::take(ranges::subrange(current_, end_), n_).

Before the invocation, the expression current_ != end_ must be true — otherwise the behavior is undefined. Not “oopsie” undefined, like actual undefined behavior, so vibe check that iterator first, fr fr 💀

🎀 Parameters 🎀

• (none) — literally no parameters, she takes none, periodt

✨ Return value ✨

The current element, which is an object of value_type. Slay 👑

🍓 Example 🍓

This section is incomplete. Reason: no example 😭
