template<class T > /* see below */ begin( valarray<T>& v );	(1)	(since C++11)
template<class T > /* see below */ begin(const valarray<T>& v );	(2)	(since C++11)

The overload of std::begin for valarray returns an iterator of unspecified type referring to the first element in the numeric array.

1) The return type must

• meet the requirements of mutableLegacyRandomAccessIterator,

model contiguous_iterator,

(since C++20)

• have a member type value_type, which is T, and
• have a member type reference, which is T&.

2) The return type must

• meet the requirements of constantLegacyRandomAccessIterator,

model contiguous_iterator,

(since C++20)

• have a member type value_type, which is T, and
• have a member type reference, which is const T&.

The iterator returned from this function is invalidated when the member function resize() is called on v or when the lifetime of v ends, whichever comes first.

Parameters

v

-

a numeric array

Return value

Iterator to the first value in the numeric array.

Exceptions

May throw implementation-defined exceptions.

Notes

Unlike other functions that take std::valarray arguments, begin() cannot accept the replacement types (such as the types produced by expression templates) that may be returned from expressions involving valarrays: std::begin(v1 + v2) is not portable, std::begin(std::valarray<T>(v1 + v2)) has to be used instead.

The intent of this function is to allow range for loops to work with valarrays, not to provide container semantics.

Example

Run this code

#include <algorithm>#include <iostream>#include <valarray>   void show(conststd::valarray<int>& v){std::for_each(std::begin(v), std::end(v), [](int c){std::cout<< c <<' ';});std::cout<<'\n';};   int main(){conststd::valarray<int> x{47, 70, 37, 52, 90, 23, 17, 33, 22, 16, 21, 4};conststd::valarray<int> y{25, 31, 71, 56, 21, 21, 15, 34, 21, 27, 12, 6};   show(x); show(y);   conststd::valarray<int> z{x + y};   for(char c : z)std::cout<< c;}

Output:

47 70 37 52 90 23 17 33 22 16 21 4 25 31 71 56 21 21 15 34 21 27 12 6 Hello, C++!
