(1) (since C++20)
template< ranges::forward_range R1, ranges::forward_range R2,
          class Proj1 = std::identity, class Proj2 = std::identity,
          std::indirect_equivalence_relation<std::projected<ranges::iterator_t<R1>, Proj1>,
                                             std::projected<ranges::iterator_t<R2>, Proj2>>
                                                 Pred = ranges::equal_to >
constexpr bool is_permutation( R1&& r1, R2&& r2, Pred pred = {},
                               Proj1 proj1 = {}, Proj2 proj2 = {} );
(2) (since C++20)
1) Returns true if there exists a permutation of the elements in range [first1last1) that makes the range equal to [first2last2) (after application of corresponding projections Proj1, Proj2, and using the binary predicate Pred as a comparator). Otherwise returns false.
2) Same as (1), but uses r1 as the first source range and r2 as the second source range, as if using ranges::begin(r1) as first1, ranges::end(r1) as last1, ranges::begin(r2) as first2, and ranges::end(r2) as last2.

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

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

Parameters

first1, last1 - the first range of the elements
first2, last2 - the second range of the elements
r1 - the first range of the elements
r2 - the second range of the elements
pred - predicate to apply to the projected elements
proj1 - projection to apply to the elements in the first range
proj2 - projection to apply to the elements in the second range

Return value

true if the range [first1last1) is a permutation of the range [first2last2).

Complexity

At most \(\scriptsize \mathcal{O}(N^2)\)O(N2) applications of the predicate and each projection, or exactly \(\scriptsize N\)N if the sequences are already equal, where \(\scriptsize N\)N is ranges::distance(first1, last1). However if ranges::distance(first1, last1) != ranges::distance(first2, last2), no applications of the predicate and projections are made.

Notes

The permutation relation is an equivalence relation.

The ranges::is_permutation can be used in testing, namely to check the correctness of rearranging algorithms (e.g. sorting, shuffling, partitioning). If x is an original range and y is a permuted range then ranges::is_permutation(x, y) == true means that y consist of "the same" elements, maybe staying at other positions.

#include <ranges>
 
auto& operator<<(auto& os, std::ranges::forward_range auto const& v)
{
    os << "{ ";

        std::ranges::is_permutation(r2, r1) &&
        std::ranges::is_permutation(r1.begin(), r1.end(), r2.begin(), r2.end()));
 
    std::cout
        << std::boolalpha
        << "is_permutation( " << r1 << ", " << r2 << " ): "
        << std::ranges::is_permutation(r1, r2) << '\n'
        << "is_permutation( " << r1 << ", " << r3 << " ): "
        << std::ranges::is_permutation(r1, r3) << '\n'
 
        << "is_permutation with custom predicate and projections: "
        << std::ranges::is_permutation(
            std::array {-14, -11, -13, -15, -12},  // 1st range
            std::array {'F', 'E', 'C', 'B', 'D'},  // 2nd range
            [](int x, int y) { return abs(x) == abs(y); }, // predicate
            [](int x) { return x + 10; },          // projection for 1st range
