std::array<T,N>:: rbegin, std::array<T,N>:: crbegin

From cppreference.net

reverse_iterator rbegin ( ) noexcept ;
(1) (since C++11)
(constexpr since C++17)
const_reverse_iterator rbegin ( ) const noexcept ;

Returns a reverse iterator to the first element of the reversed * this . It corresponds to the last element of the non-reversed * this .

If * this is empty, the returned iterator is equal to rend() .

Return value

Reverse iterator to the first element.

Complexity

Constant.

Notes

The underlying iterator of the returned reverse iterator is the end iterator . Hence the returned iterator is invalidated if and when the end iterator is invalidated.

Example

#include <algorithm>
#include <array>
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <string_view>
void print(const std::string_view s) { std::cout << s << ' '; }
int main()
{
    const std::array<std::string_view, 8> data
    {
        "▁", "▂", "▃", "▄", "▅", "▆", "▇", "█"
    };
    std::array<std::string, 8> arr;
    std::copy(data.cbegin(), data.cend(), arr.begin());
    print("Print “arr” in direct order using [cbegin, cend):\t");
    std::for_each(arr.cbegin(), arr.cend(), print);
    print("\n\nPrint “arr” in reverse order using [crbegin, crend):\t");
    std::for_each(arr.crbegin(), arr.crend(), print);
}

Output:

Print “arr” in direct order using [cbegin, cend):	 ▁ ▂ ▃ ▄ ▅ ▆ ▇ █ 
Print “arr” in reverse order using [crbegin, crend):	 █ ▇ ▆ ▅ ▄ ▃ ▂ ▁
