Constrained algorithms (since C++20)

C++20 provides constrained versions of most algorithms in the namespace std::ranges. In these algorithms, a range can be specified as either a Iterator-Sentinel pair or as a single Range argument, and projections and pointer-to-member callables are supported. Additionally, the return type of most algorithms have been changed to return all potentially useful information computed during the execution of the algorithm.

Algorithm concepts and utilities

The header <iterator> provides a set of concepts and related utility templates designed to ease constraining common algorithm operations.
