constexpr size_type find_first_of( basic_string_view v, size_type pos = 0 ) const noexcept; | (1) | (since C++17)
constexpr size_type find_first_of( CharT ch, size_type pos = 0 ) const noexcept; | (2) | (since C++17)
constexpr size_type find_first_of( const CharT* s, size_type pos, size_type count ) const; | (3) | (since C++17)
constexpr size_type find_first_of( const CharT* s, size_type pos = 0 ) const; | (4) | (since C++17)

Finds the first character equal to any of the characters in the given character sequence.

1) Finds the first occurrence of any of the characters of v in this view, starting at position pos.
2) Equivalent to find_first_of(basic_string_view( std::addressof (ch), 1), pos).
3) Equivalent to find_first_of(basic_string_view(s, count), pos).
4) Equivalent to find_first_of(basic_string_view(s), pos).

### Parameters

v | - | view to search for
pos | - | position at which to start the search
count | - | length of the string of characters to search for
s | - | pointer to a string of characters to search for
ch | - | character to search for

### Return value

Position of the first occurrence of any character of the substring, or npos if no such character is found.

### Complexity

O(size() * v.size()) at worst.

### Example

Run this code

    #include <string_view>

    using namespace std::literals;
    constexpr auto N = std::string_view::npos;

    constexpr bool is_white_space(const char c)
    {
        return " \t\n\f\r\v"sv.find_first_of(c) != N;
    };

    static_assert(
        1 == "alignas"sv.find_first_of("klmn"sv) &&
          //   └─────────────────────────┘
        N == "alignof"sv.find_first_of("wxyz"sv) &&
          //
        3 == "concept"sv.find_first_of("bcde"sv, /* pos= */ 1) &&
          //     └───────────────────────┘
        N == "consteval"sv.find_first_of("oxyz"sv, /* pos= */ 2) &&
          //
        6 == "constexpr"sv.find_first_of('x') &&
          //        └─────────────────────┘
        N == "constinit"sv.find_first_of('x') &&
          //
        6 == "const_cast"sv.find_first_of('c', /* pos= */ 4) &&
          //        └──────────────────────┘
        N == "continue"sv.find_first_of('c', /* pos= */ 42) &&
          //
        5 == "co_await"sv.find_first_of("cba", /* pos= */ 4) &&
          //       └───────────────────────┘
        7 == "decltype"sv.find_first_of("def", /* pos= */ 2, /* count= */ 2) &&
          //         └────────────────────┘
        N == "decltype"sv.find_first_of("def", /* pos= */ 2, /* count= */ 1) &&
          //
        is_white_space(' ') && is_white_space('\r') && !is_white_space('\a')
    );

    int main() {}
