# std::ranges::take_view<V>::end

From cppreference.com
< cpp‎ | ranges‎ | take view

constexpr auto end() requires (!/*simple-view*/<V>); | (1) | (since C++20)
constexpr auto end() const requires ranges::range <const V>; | (2) | (since C++20)

Returns a sentinel or an iterator representing the end of the `take_view`. The end of the `take_view` is either one past the `count`th element in the underlying range, or the end of the underlying range if the latter has less than `count` elements.

1) Returns a take_view::/*sentinel*/<false>, a std::default_sentinel_t, or a ranges::iterator_t <V>.
2) Returns a take_view::/*sentinel*/<true>, a std::default_sentinel_t, or a ranges::iterator_t <const V>.

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

The result depends on the concepts satisfied by possibly const-qualified underlying view type `Base`, that is `V` for (1) or `const V` for (2).

Let `base_` be the underlying view.

The underlying view type satisfies ... | `random_access_range`
--- | ---
yes | no
`sized_range` | yes | ranges::begin (base_) + ranges::range_difference_t <Base_>(this->size()) | std::default_sentinel
no | 1) /*sentinel*/<false>{ ranges::end (base_)} 2) /*sentinel*/<true>{ ranges::end (base_)}

### Example

Run this code

    #include <iostream>
    #include <iterator>
    #include <list>
    #include <ranges>
    #include <type_traits>
    namespace ranges = std::ranges;
    namespace views = std::views;

    int main()
    {
        const auto list1 = {3, 1, 4, 1, 5};
        const auto seq1{list1 | views::take(4)};
        static_assert(ranges::sized_range<decltype(seq1)> and
                      ranges::random_access_range<decltype(seq1)> and
                      std::is_same_v<decltype(seq1.end()), decltype(list1.end())>);
        for (auto it = seq1.begin(); it != seq1.end(); ++it)
            std::cout << *it << ' ';
        std::cout << '\n';

        std::list list2{2, 7, 1, 8, 2};
        const auto seq2{list2 | views::take(4)};
        static_assert(ranges::sized_range<decltype(seq2)> and
                      not ranges::random_access_range<decltype(seq2)> and
                      std::is_same_v<decltype(seq2.end()), std::default_sentinel_t>);
        for (auto it = seq2.begin(); it != std::default_sentinel; ++it)
            std::cout << *it << ' ';
        std::cout << '\n';
    }

Output:

    3 1 4 1
    2 7 1 8
