std::includes

Defined in header `<algorithm>`
template< class InputIt1, class InputIt2 > bool includes( InputIt1 first1, InputIt1 last1, InputIt2 first2, InputIt2 last2 );	(1)
template< class ExecutionPolicy, class ForwardIt1, class ForwardIt2 > bool includes( ExecutionPolicy&& policy, ForwardIt1 first1, ForwardIt1 last1, ForwardIt2 first2, ForwardIt2 last2 );	(2)	(since C++17)
template< class InputIt1, class InputIt2, class Compare > bool includes( InputIt1 first1, InputIt1 last1, InputIt2 first2, InputIt2 last2, Compare comp );	(3)
template< class ExecutionPolicy, class ForwardIt1, class ForwardIt2, class Compare > bool includes( ExecutionPolicy&& policy, ForwardIt1 first1, ForwardIt1 last1, ForwardIt2 first2, ForwardIt2 last2, Compare comp );	(4)	(since C++17)

Returns true if every element from the sorted range [first2, last2) is found within the sorted range [first1, last1). Also returns true if [first2, last2) is empty.

1) Both ranges must be sorted with operator<.

3) Both ranges must be sorted with the given comparison function comp.

2,4) Same as (1,3), but executed according to policy. This overload only participates in overload resolution if std::is_execution_policy_v<std::decay_t<ExecutionPolicy>> is true

Parameters

first1, last1	-	the sorted range of elements to examine
first2, last2	-	the sorted range of elements to search for
policy	-	the execution policy to use. See execution policy for details.
comp	-	comparison function object (i.e. an object that satisfies the requirements of `Compare`) which returns `true` if the first argument is less than (i.e. is ordered before) the second. The signature of the comparison function should be equivalent to the following: `bool cmp(const Type1 &a, const Type2 &b);` The signature does not need to have `const &`, but the function object must not modify the objects passed to it. The types `Type1` and `Type2` must be such that an object of type `InputIt` can be dereferenced and then implicitly converted to both of them.
Type requirements
-`InputIt1, InputIt2` must meet the requirements of `InputIterator`.
-`ForwardIt1, ForwardIt2` must meet the requirements of `ForwardIterator`.

Return value

true if every element from [first2, last2) is a member of [first, last).

Complexity

At most 2·(N₁+N₂-1) comparisons, where N₁ = std::distance(first1, last1) and N₂ = std::distance(first2, last2).

Exceptions

The overloads with a template parameter named ExecutionPolicy report errors as follows:

If execution of a function invoked as part of the algorithm throws an exception and ExecutionPolicy is one of the three standard policies, std::terminate is called. For any other ExecutionPolicy, the behavior is implementation-defined.
If the algorithm fails to allocate memory, std::bad_alloc is thrown.

Possible implementation

First version
template<class InputIt1, class InputIt2> bool includes(InputIt1 first1, InputIt1 last1, InputIt2 first2, InputIt2 last2) { for (; first2 != last2; ++first1) { if (first1 == last1 \|\| first2 < first1) return false; if ( !(first1 < first2) ) ++first2; } return true; }
Second version
template<class InputIt1, class InputIt2> bool includes(InputIt1 first1, InputIt1 last1, InputIt2 first2, InputIt2 last2, Compare comp) { for (; first2 != last2; ++first1) { if (first1 == last1 \|\| comp(first2, first1)) return false; if (!comp(first1, first2)) ++first2; } return true; }

              InputIt2 first2, InputIt2 last2)

    for (; first2 != last2; ++first1)
    {
        if (first1 == last1 || *first2 < *first1)
            return false;
        if ( !(*first1 < *first2) )
            ++first2;
    }
    return true;
}

Second version

template<class InputIt1, class InputIt2>

              InputIt2 first2, InputIt2 last2, Compare comp)

Example

#include <iostream>
#include <algorithm>
#include <cctype>
#include <vector>
 
int main()
{
  std::vector<char> v1 {'a', 'b', 'c', 'f', 'h', 'x'};
  std::vector<char> v2 {'a', 'b', 'c'};
  std::vector<char> v3 {'a', 'c'};
  std::vector<char> v4 {'g'};
  std::vector<char> v5 {'a', 'c', 'g'};
 
  for (auto i : v1) std::cout << i << ' ';
  std::cout << "\nincludes:\n" << std::boolalpha;
 
  for (auto i : v2) std::cout << i << ' ';
  std::cout << ": " << std::includes(v1.begin(), v1.end(), v2.begin(), v2.end()) << '\n';
  for (auto i : v3) std::cout << i << ' ';
  std::cout << ": " << std::includes(v1.begin(), v1.end(), v3.begin(), v3.end()) << '\n';
  for (auto i : v4) std::cout << i << ' ';
  std::cout << ": " << std::includes(v1.begin(), v1.end(), v4.begin(), v4.end()) << '\n';
  for (auto i : v5) std::cout << i << ' ';
  std::cout << ": " << std::includes(v1.begin(), v1.end(), v5.begin(), v5.end()) << '\n';
 
  auto cmp_nocase = [](char a, char b) {
    return std::tolower(a) < std::tolower(b);
  };
 
  std::vector<char> v6 {'A', 'B', 'C'};
  for (auto i : v6) std::cout << i << ' ';
  std::cout << ": (case-insensitive) "
            << std::includes(v1.begin(), v1.end(), v6.begin(), v6.end(), cmp_nocase)
            << '\n';
}

Output:

a b c f h x
includes:
a b c : true
a c : true
g : false
a c g : false
A B C : (case-insensitive) true

set_difference	computes the difference between two sets (function template)
search	searches for a range of elements (function template)
