Left-folds the elements of given range, that is, returns the result of evaluation of the chain expression:
f(f(f(f(init, x1), x2), ...), xn), where x1, x2, ..., xn are elements of the range.

Informally, ranges::fold_left behaves like std::accumulate's overload that accepts a binary predicate.

The behavior is undefined if [firstlast) is not a valid range.

1) The range is [firstlast). Equivalent to return ranges::fold_left_with_iter(std::move(first), last, std::move(init), f).value.
2) Same as (1), except that uses r as the range, as if by using ranges::begin(r) as first and ranges::end(r) as last.

The function-like entities described on this page are niebloids, that is:

In practice, they may be implemented as function objects, or with special compiler extensions.

Contents

[edit] Parameters

first, last - the range of elements to fold
r - the range of elements to fold
init - the initial value of the fold
f - the binary function object

[edit] Return value

An object of type U that contains the result of left-fold of the given range over f, where U is equivalent to std::decay_t<std::invoke_result_t<F&, T, std::iter_reference_t<I>>>.

If the range is empty, U(std::move(init)) is returned.

[edit] Possible implementations

struct fold_left_fn
{
    template<std::input_iterator I, std::sentinel_for<I> S, class T = std::iter_value_t<I>,
             /* indirectly-binary-left-foldable */<T, I> F>
    constexpr auto operator()(I first, S last, T init, F f) const
    {
        using U = std::decay_t<std::invoke_result_t<F&, T, std::iter_reference_t<I>>>;
        if (first == last)
            return U(std::move(init));
        U accum = std::invoke(f, std::move(init), *first);
        for (++first; first != last; ++first)
            accum = std::invoke(f, std::move(accum), *first);
        return std::move(accum);
    }
 
    template<ranges::input_range R, class T = ranges::range_value_t<R>,
             /* indirectly-binary-left-foldable */<T, ranges::iterator_t<R>> F>
    constexpr auto operator()(R&& r, T init, F f) const
    {
        return (*this)(ranges::begin(r), ranges::end(r), std::move(init), std::ref(f));
    }
};
 
inline constexpr fold_left_fn fold_left;

[edit] Complexity

Exactly ranges::distance(first, last) applications of the function object f.

[edit] Notes

The following table compares all constrained folding algorithms:

Fold function template Starts from Initial value Return type
ranges::fold_left left init U
ranges::fold_left_first left first element std::optional<U>
ranges::fold_right right init U
ranges::fold_right_last right last element std::optional<U>
ranges::fold_left_with_iter left init

(1) ranges::in_value_result<I, U>

(2) ranges::in_value_result<BR, U>,

where BR is ranges::borrowed_iterator_t<R>

ranges::fold_left_first_with_iter left first element

(1) ranges::in_value_result<I, std::optional<U>>

(2) ranges::in_value_result<BR, std::optional<U>>

where BR is ranges::borrowed_iterator_t<R>

    float sec = ranges::fold_left
    (
        data | ranges::views::values, 2.0f, std::multiplies<>()
    );
    std::cout << "sec: " << sec << '\n';
 
    // use a program defined function object (lambda-expression):
    std::string str = ranges::fold_left
    (
        v, "A", [](std::string s, int x) { return s + ':' + std::to_string(x); }
    );
    std::cout << "str: " << str << '\n';
 
    using CD = std::complex<double>;
    std::vector<CD> nums{{1, 1}, {2, 0}, {3, 0}};
    #ifdef __cpp_lib_algorithm_default_value_type
        auto res = ranges::fold_left(nums, {7, 0}, std::multiplies{}); // (2)
    #else
        auto res = ranges::fold_left(nums, CD{7, 0}, std::multiplies{}); // (2)
    #endif
    std::cout << "res: " << res << '\n';
}

Output:

sum: 36

sec: 42
str: A:1:2:3:4:5:6:7:8
res: (42,42)
