(3) (since C++20)

Copies the first N elements from the source range [firstlast), as if it was partially sorted with respect to comp and proj1, into the destination range [result_firstresult_first + N), where \(\scriptsize N = \min{(L_1, L_2)}\)N = min(L₁, L₂), \(\scriptsize L_1\)L₁ is equal to ranges::distance(first, last), and \(\scriptsize L_2\)L₂ is equal to ranges::distance(result_first, result_last).

The order of equal elements is not guaranteed to be preserved.

1) The source range elements are projected using the function object proj1, and the destination elements are projected using the function object proj2.
2) Same as (1), but uses r as the source range and result_r as the destination range, as if using ranges::begin(r) as first, ranges::end(r) as last, ranges::begin(result_r) as result_first, and ranges::end(result_r) as result_last.

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

first, last - iterator-sentinel defining the source range to copy from
r - the source range to copy from
result_first, result_last - iterator-sentinel defining the destination range
result_r - the destination range
comp - comparison to apply to the projected elements
proj1 - projection to apply to the elements of source range
proj2 - projection to apply to the elements of destination range

Return value

An object equal to {last, result_first + N}.

Complexity

At most \(\scriptsize L_1 \cdot \log{(N)}\)L₁•log(N) comparisons and \(\scriptsize 2 \cdot L_1 \cdot \log{(N)}\)2•L₁•log(N) projections.

Example

#include <algorithm>
#include <forward_list>
#include <functional>
#include <iostream>
#include <ranges>
#include <string_view>
#include <vector>
 
void print(std::string_view rem, std::ranges::input_range auto const& v)
{
    for (std::cout << rem; const auto& e : v)
        std::cout << e << ' ';
    std::cout << '\n';
}
 
int main()
{
    const std::forward_list source {4, 2, 5, 1, 3};
 
    print("Write to the smaller vector in ascending order: ", "");
 
    std::vector dest1 {10, 11, 12};
    print("const source list: ", source);
    print("destination range: ", dest1);
    std::ranges::partial_sort_copy(source, dest1);
    print("partial_sort_copy: ", dest1);
 
    print("Write to the larger vector in descending order:", "");
 
    std::vector dest2 {10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16};
    print("const source list: ", source);
    print("destination range: ", dest2);
    std::ranges::partial_sort_copy(source, dest2, std::greater{});
    print("partial_sort_copy: ", dest2);
}

Output:

Write to the smaller vector in ascending order:
const source list: 4 2 5 1 3
destination range: 10 11 12
partial_sort_copy: 1 2 3
Write to the larger vector in descending order:
const source list: 4 2 5 1 3
destination range: 10 11 12 13 14 15 16
partial_sort_copy: 5 4 3 2 1 15 16
