std::subtra...engine::max(3)

🎀 NAME 🎀

okay so we're on the std::subtract_with_carry_engine::max page from the C++ Standard Libary manual, and the header is literally out here calling itself std::subtra...engine::max(3) because it ran out of vowel energy 😭💅.

std::subtract_with_carry_engine::max — std::subtract_with_carry_engine::max. that's the name, bestie, no notes.

🦋 Synopsis 🦋

the whole signature is giving main character energy since C++11:

static constexpr result_type max();  (since C++11)

it returns the maximum value potentially generated by the random-number engine. this value is equal to 2w - 1, where w is the template parameter also accessible as static member word_size ✨.

💖 Parameters 💖

none. literally none. the parameter list is empty, fr fr 🫶.

✨ Return value ✨

the maximum potentially generated value, periodt 👑.

🌸 Complexity 🌸

constant. no cap.
