std::ranges::stride_view<V>::begin

constexpr auto begin() requires (!__simple_view<V>);
 (1) (since C++23) 
constexpr auto begin() const requires ranges::range<const V>;
 (2) (since C++23)

Returns an iterator to the first element of the stride_view.

1) Equivalent to return iterator<false>(this, ranges::begin(base_));.
2) Equivalent to return iterator<true>(this, ranges::begin(base_));.

Overload (1) does not participate in overload resolution if V is a simple view (that is, if V and const V are views with the same iterator and sentinel types).

Parameters

(none).

Return value

Iterator to the first element of the view.

Example

A link to test: Compiler Explorer.

#include <print>
#include <ranges>
 
int main()
{
    constexpr auto v = {'A', 'B', 'C'};
    const auto x = v | std::views::stride(2);
    const auto y = v | std::views::reverse | std::views::stride(2);
    const auto z = v | std::views::stride(2) | std::views::reverse;
    std::println("{} {} {}", *x.begin(), *y.begin(), *z.begin());
}

Output:

A C C
