23 Iterators library [iterators]

23.3 Iterator requirements [iterator.requirements]

23.3.7 Common algorithm requirements [alg.req]

23.3.7.1 General [alg.req.general]

There are several additional iterator concepts that are commonly applied to families of algorithms.
These group together iterator requirements of algorithm families.
There are three relational concepts that specify how element values are transferred between indirectly_­readable and indirectly_­writable types: indirectly_­movable, indirectly_­copyable, and indirectly_­swappable.
There are three relational concepts for rearrangements: permutable, mergeable, and sortable.
There is one relational concept for comparing values from different sequences: indirectly_­comparable.
Note
:
The ranges​::​less function object type used in the concepts below imposes constraints on the concepts' arguments in addition to those that appear in the concepts' bodies ([range.cmp]).
