70 // 24.4.1 Reverse iterators
72 * "Bidirectional and random access iterators have corresponding reverse
73 * %iterator adaptors that iterate through the data structure in the
74 * opposite direction. They have the same signatures as the corresponding
75 * iterators. The fundamental relation between a reverse %iterator and its
76 * corresponding %iterator @c i is established by the identity:
78 * &*(reverse_iterator(i)) == &*(i - 1)
81 * This mapping is dictated by the fact that while there is always a
82 * pointer past the end of an array, there might not be a valid pointer
83 * before the beginning of an array." [24.4.1]/1,2
85 * Reverse iterators can be tricky and surprising at first. Their
86 * semantics make sense, however, and the trickiness is a side effect of
87 * the requirement that the iterators must be safe.
