 (6) (since C++17)
1) Equivalent to std::transform_reduce(first1, last1, first2, init, std::plus<>(), std::multiplies<>());, effectively parallelized version of the default std::inner_product.
2) Applies transform to each pair of elements from the ranges [first, last) and the range starting at first2 and reduces the results (possibly permuted and aggregated in unspecified manner) along with the initial value init over reduce.
3) Applies transform to each element in the range [first, last) and reduces the results (possibly permuted and aggregated in unspecified manner) along with the initial value init over reduce.
4-6) Same as (1-3), but executed according to policy. These overloads do not participate in overload resolution unless

std::is_execution_policy_v<std::decay_t<ExecutionPolicy>> is true.

 (until C++20)

std::is_execution_policy_v<std::remove_cvref_t<ExecutionPolicy>> is true.

 (since C++20)

The behavior is non-deterministic if reduce is not associative or not commutative.

The behavior is undefined if reduce, or transform modifies any element or invalidates any iterator in the input ranges, including their end iterators.

Parameters

first, last - the range of elements to apply the algorithm to
init - the initial value of the generalized sum
policy - the execution policy to use. See execution policy for details.
reduce - binary FunctionObject that will be applied in unspecified order to the results of transform, the results of other reduce and init.
transform - unary or binary FunctionObject that will be applied to each element of the input range(s). The return type must be acceptable as input to reduce.
Type requirements
-T must meet the requirements of MoveConstructible in order to use overloads (3,6). and the result of the expressions reduce(init, transform(*first)), reduce(transform(*first), init), reduce(init, init), and reduce(transform(*first), transform(*first)) must be convertible to T.
-T must meet the requirements of MoveConstructible in order to use overloads (2,5). and the result of the expressions reduce(init, transform(*first1, *first2)), reduce(transform(*first1, *first2), init), reduce(init, init), and reduce(transform(*first1, *first2), transform(*first1, *first2)) must be convertible to T.
-InputIt must meet the requirements of LegacyInputIterator.
-ForwardIt must meet the requirements of LegacyForwardIterator.

Return value

2) Generalized sum of init and transform(*first, *first2), transform(*(first + 1), *(first2 + 1)), ..., over reduce.
3) Generalized sum of init and transform(*first), transform(*(first + 1)), ... transform(*(last - 1)) over reduce,

where generalized sum GSUM(op, a
1, ..., a
N) is defined as follows:

  • if N = 1, a
    1
  • if N > 1, op(GSUM(op, b
    1    , ..., b
    K    ), GSUM(op, b
    M    , ..., b
    N    )) where
    • b
      1      , ..., b
      N       may be any permutation of a1, ..., aN and
    • 1 < K + 1 = M ≤ N

in other words, the results of transform or of reduce may be grouped and arranged in arbitrary order.

Complexity

1,2,4,5) O(last1 - first1) applications each of reduce and transform.
3,6) O(last - first) applications each of transform and reduce.

Exceptions

The overloads with a template parameter named ExecutionPolicy report errors as follows:

  • If execution of a function invoked as part of the algorithm throws an exception and ExecutionPolicy is one of the standard policies, std::terminate is called. For any other ExecutionPolicy, the behavior is implementation-defined.
  • If the algorithm fails to allocate memory, std::bad_alloc is thrown.

Notes

In the unary-binary overload (3,6), transform is not applied to init.

If first == last or first1 == last1, init is returned, unmodified.

Example

transform_reduce can be used to parallelize std::inner_product. Some systems may need additional support to get advantages of parallel execution. E.g., on GNU/Linux, the Intel TBB be installed and -ltbb option be provided to gcc/clang compiler.

#if PARALLEL
#include <execution>
#define PAR std::execution::par,
#else
#define PAR
#endif
 
#include <algorithm>
#include <functional>
#include <iostream>
#include <iterator>
#include <locale>
#include <numeric>
#include <vector>
 
// to parallelize non-associate accumulative operation, you'd better choose
// transform_reduce instead of reduce; e.g., a + b * b != b + a * a
void print_sum_squared(long const num)
{
    std::cout.imbue(std::locale{"en_US.UTF8"});
    std::cout << "num = " << num << '\n';
 
    // create an immutable vector filled with pattern: 1,2,3,4, 1,2,3,4 ...
    const std::vector<long> v { [n = num * 4] {
        std::vector<long> v;
        v.reserve(n);
        std::generate_n(std::back_inserter(v), n,
            [i = 0]() mutable { return 1 + i++ % 4; });
        return v;
    }()};
 
    auto squared_sum = [](auto sum, auto val) { return sum + val * val; };
 
    auto sum1 = std::accumulate(v.cbegin(), v.cend(), 0L, squared_sum);
    std::cout << "accumulate(): " << sum1 << '\n';
 
    auto sum2 = std::reduce(PAR v.cbegin(), v.cend(), 0L, squared_sum);
    std::cout << "reduce(): " << sum2 << '\n';
 
    auto sum3 = std::transform_reduce(PAR v.cbegin(), v.cend(), 0L, std::plus{},
                                      [](auto val) { return val * val; });
    std::cout << "transform_reduce(): " << sum3 << "\n\n";
}
 
int main()
{
    print_sum_squared(1);
    print_sum_squared(1'000);
    print_sum_squared(1'000'000);
}

Possible output:

num = 1
accumulate(): 30
reduce(): 30
transform_reduce(): 30
 
num = 1,000
accumulate(): 30,000
reduce(): -7,025,681,278,312,630,348
transform_reduce(): 30,000
 
num = 1,000,000
accumulate(): 30,000,000
reduce(): -5,314,886,882,370,003,032
transform_reduce(): 30,000,000
 
// Compile-options for parallel execution on POSIX:
