InputIterator

An InputIterator is an Iterator that can read from the pointed-to element. InputIterators only guarantee validity for single pass algorithms: once an InputIterator i has been incremented, all copies of its previous value may be invalidated.

Requirements

The type It satisfies InputIterator if.

And, given.

The following expressions must be valid and have their specified effects.

Expression Return Equivalent expression Notes
i != j contextually convertible to bool !(i == j) Precondition: (i, j) is in the domain of ==.
*i reference, convertible to value_type If i == j and (i, j) is in the domain of == then this is equivalent to *j.

Precondition: i is dereferenceable.

The expression (void)*i, *i is equivalent to *i.

i->m (*i).m Precondition: i is dereferenceable.
++i It&

Precondition: i is dereferenceable.

Postcondition: i is dereferenceable or i is past-the-end.

Postcondition: Any copies of the previous value of i are no longer required to be either dereferenceable or to be in the domain of ==.

(void)i++ (void)++i
*i++ convertible to value_type value_type x = *i; ++i; return x;

Note, "in the domain of ==" means equality comparison is defined between the two iterator values. For input iterators, equality comparison does not need to be defined for all values, and the set of the values in the domain of == may change over time.
