Semantics

Postcondition

boost::size(a)

Returns the size of the Range, that is, its number of elements. Note boost::size(a) == 0u is equivalent to boost::empty(a).

boost::size(a) >= 0

Complexity guarantees

boost::size(a) completes in amortized constant time.

Invariants

Range size

boost::size(a) is equal to the boost::end(a) - boost::begin(a).
