Defined in header <valarray>
class slice;

std::slice is the selector class that identifies a subset of std::valarray similar to BLAS slice. An object of type std::slice holds three values: the starting index, the stride, and the total number of values in the subset. Objects of type std::slice can be used as indices with valarray's operator[].

std::slice::slice

slice()
(1)
slice( std::size_t start, std::size_t size, std::size_t stride );
(2)
slice( const slice& other );
(3)

Constructs a new slice.

1) Default constructor. Equivalent to slice(0, 0, 0). This constructor exists only to allow construction of arrays of slices.
2) Constructs a new slice with parameters start, size, stride. This slice will refer to size number of elements, each with the position:
start + 0 * stride
start + 1 * stride
...
start + (size - 1) * stride
3) Constructs a copy of other.

Parameters

start - the position of the first element
size - the number of elements in the slice
stride - the number of positions between successive elements in the slice
other - another slice to copy

std::slice::start, size, stride

std::size_t start() const;
(1)
std::size_t size() const;
(2)
std::size_t stride() const;
(3)

Returns the parameters passed to the slice on construction - start, size and stride respectively.

Parameters

(none)

Return value

The parameters of the slice -- start, size and stride respectively.

Complexity

Constant.

[edit] Non-member functions

operator==(std::slice)
(C++20)
checks if two slices are equal
(function)

operator==(std::slice)

friend bool operator==( const slice& lhs, const slice& rhs );
(since C++20)

Checks if the parameters of lhs and rhs - start, size and stride are equal respectively.

This function is not visible to ordinary unqualified or qualified lookup, and can only be found by argument-dependent lookup when std::slice is an associated class of the arguments.

The != operator is synthesized from operator==.

Parameters

lhs, rhs - slices to compare

Return value

lhs.start() == rhs.start() && lhs.size() == rhs.size() && lhs.stride() == rhs.stride()
