find_end
Looks in a range for the last subsequence that is identical to a specified sequence or that is equivalent in a sense specified by a binary predicate.
Syntax
template<class ForwardIterator1, class ForwardIterator2>
ForwardIterator1 find_end(
ForwardIterator1 First1,
ForwardIterator1 Last1,
ForwardIterator2 First2,
ForwardIterator2 Last2
);
template<class ForwardIterator1, class ForwardIterator2, class Pred>
ForwardIterator1 find_end(
ForwardIterator1 First1,
ForwardIterator1 Last1,
ForwardIterator2 First2,
ForwardIterator2 Last2,
Pred Comp
);
Parameters
First1
A forward iterator addressing the position of the first element in the range to be searched.Last1
A forward iterator addressing the position one past the last element in the range to be searched.First2
A forward iterator addressing the position of the first element in the range to search for.Last2
A forward iterator addressing the position one past the last element in the range to search for.Comp
User-defined predicate function object that defines the condition to be satisfied if two elements are to be taken as equivalent. A binary predicate takes two arguments and returns true when satisfied and false when not satisfied.
Return Value
A forward iterator addressing the position of the first element of the last subsequence within [First1, Last1) that matches the specified sequence [First2, Last2).
Remarks
The operator== used to determine the match between an element and the specified value must impose an equivalence relation between its operands.
The ranges referenced must be valid; all pointers must be dereferenceable and, within each sequence, the last position is reachable from the first by incrementation.
