list::rend

Returns an iterator that addresses the location succeeding the last element in a reversed list.

const_reverse_iterator rend( ) const;
reverse_iterator rend( );

Return Value

A reverse bidirectional iterator that addresses the location succeeding the last element in a reversed list (the location that had preceded the first element in the unreversed list).

Remarks

rend is used with a reversed list just as end is used with a list.

If the return value of rend is assigned to a const_reverse_iterator, the list object cannot be modified. If the return value of rend is assigned to a reverse_iterator, the list object can be modified.

rend can be used to test to whether a reverse iterator has reached the end of its list.

The value returned by rend should not be dereferenced.

Example

// list_rend.cpp
// compile with: /EHsc
#include <list>
#include <iostream>

int main( ) 
{
   using namespace std;
   list <int> c1;
   list <int>::iterator c1_Iter;
   list <int>::reverse_iterator c1_rIter;

   // If the following line had replaced the line above, an error would 
   // have resulted in the line modifying an element (commented below)
   // because the iterator would have been const
   // list <int>::const_reverse_iterator c1_rIter;
   
   c1.push_back( 10 );
   c1.push_back( 20 );
   c1.push_back( 30 );

   c1_rIter = c1.rend( );
   c1_rIter --;  // Decrementing a reverse iterator moves it forward in 
                 // the list (to point to the first element here)
   cout << "The first element in the list is: " << *c1_rIter << endl;

   cout << "The list is:";
   for ( c1_Iter = c1.begin( ); c1_Iter != c1.end( ); c1_Iter++ )
      cout << " " << *c1_Iter;
   cout << endl;

   // rend can be used to test if an iteration is through all of the 
   // elements of a reversed list
   cout << "The reversed list is:";
   for ( c1_rIter = c1.rbegin( ); c1_rIter != c1.rend( ); c1_rIter++ )
      cout << " " << *c1_rIter;
   cout << endl;

   c1_rIter = c1.rend( );
   c1_rIter--;  // Decrementing the reverse iterator moves it backward 
                // in the reversed list (to the last element here)

   *c1_rIter = 40;  // This modification of the last element would have 
                    // caused an error if a const_reverse iterator had 
                    // been declared (as noted above)

   cout << "The modified reversed list is:";
   for ( c1_rIter = c1.rbegin( ); c1_rIter != c1.rend( ); c1_rIter++ )
      cout << " " << *c1_rIter;
   cout << endl;
}

The first element in the list is: 10
The list is: 10 20 30
The reversed list is: 30 20 10
The modified reversed list is: 30 20 40
