Returns a `Product` containing the longest prefix of a sequence //! satisfying a predicate, and the rest of the sequence. //! @ingroup group-Sequence //! //! The first component of the returned `Product` is a sequence for which //! all elements satisfy the given predicate. The second component of the //! returned `Product` is a sequence containing the remainder of the //! argument. Both or either sequences may be empty, depending on the //! input argument. More specifically, //! @code //! span(xs, predicate) == make_pair(take_while(xs, predicate), //! drop_while(xs, predicate)) //! @endcode //! except that `make_pair` may be an arbitrary `Product`. //! //! //! Signature //! --------- //! Given a `Sequence` `S(T)`, a `Logical` `Bool` and a predicate //! \f$ T \to Bool \f$, `span` has the following signature: //! \f[ //! \mathtt{span} : S(T) \times (T \to Bool) \to S(T) \times S(T) //! \f] //! //! @param xs //! The sequence to break into two parts. //! //! @param predicate //! A function called as `predicate(x)`, where `x` is an element of the //! sequence, and returning a `Logical. In the current implementation of //! the library, `predicate` has to return a compile-time `Logical`. //! //! //! Syntactic sugar (`span.by`) //! --------------------------- //! `span` can be called in an alternate way, which provides a nice syntax //! in some cases where the predicate is short: //! @code //! span.by(predicate, xs) == span(xs, predicate) //! span.by(predicate) == span(-, predicate) //! @endcode //! //! where `span(-, predicate)` denotes the partial application of //! `span` to `predicate`. //! //! //! Example //! ------- //! @include example/span.cpp #ifdef BOOST_HANA_DOXYGEN_INVOKED constexpr auto span = [](auto&& xs, auto&& predicate) { return tag-dispatched; }; #else template struct span_impl : span_impl> { }; struct span_t : detail::nested_by { template constexpr auto operator()(Xs&& xs, Pred&& pred) const; }; constexpr span_t span{}; #endif BOOST_HANA_NAMESPACE_END #endif // !BOOST_HANA_FWD_SPAN_HPP
