20.3 Compile-time integer sequences [intseq]

20.3.1 In general [intseq.general]

The library provides a class template that can represent an integer sequence.
When used as an argument to a function template the template parameter pack defining the sequence can be deduced and used in a pack expansion.
[Note
:
The index_­sequence alias template is provided for the common case of an integer sequence of type size_­t; see also [tuple.apply].

20.3.2 Class template integer_­sequence [intseq.intseq]

namespace std {
  template<class T, T... I> struct integer_sequence {
    using value_type = T;
    static constexpr size_t size() noexcept { return sizeof...(I); }
  };
}
Mandates: T is an integer type.

20.3.3 Alias template make_­integer_­sequence [intseq.make]

template<class T, T N> using make_integer_sequence = integer_sequence<T, see below>;
Mandates: .
The alias template make_­integer_­sequence denotes a specialization of integer_­sequence with N non-type template arguments.
The type make_­integer_­sequence<T, N> is an alias for the type integer_­sequence<T, 0, 1, ..., N-1>.
[Note
:
make_­integer_­sequence<int, 0> is an alias for the type integer_­sequence<int>.
