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

🌸 NAME 🌸

okay bestie, welcome to the page std::ranges...::operator*(3) from the C++ Standard Libary 💖 (manual name folded in right here near the top, no copied header line needed). The NAME is literally std::ranges::chunk_view::outer-iterator::operator* — std::ranges::chunk_view::outer-iterator::operator* (yes, it's listed twice; that's the lore, periodt 💅).

✨ Synopsis ✨

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

Returns the current chunk in the chunk_view 🎀.

Let parent_ be the underlying pointer, and value_type be a nested class that is the value type of the iterator. value_type is doing main character energy here, ngl 💫.

Equivalent to: return value_type(*parent_);.

Before invocation of this operator the expression *this == std::default_sentinel must be false. That's a real precondition, bestie — do not skip the vibe check 🫶.

🦋 Parameters 🦋

(none) — literally no parameters, zero, nada, the page said so 😌.

🌈 Return value 🌈

The current element (a chunk). That's it. That's the return value. Iconic. ✨

🎀 Example 🎀

This section is incomplete — Reason: no example 😭 (the manual is being mysterious, not me).

💀 Category 💀

* Todo no example — that's the whole category, no cap.
