21 Metaprogramming library [meta]

21.2 Compile-time integer sequences [intseq]

21.2.1 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 1: 
The index_sequence alias template is provided for the common case of an integer sequence of type size_t; see also [tuple.apply].

21.2.2 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.

21.2.3 Alias template make_integer_sequence [intseq.make]

template<class T, T N> using make_integer_sequence = integer_sequence<T, see below>;
Mandates: N  ≥ 0.
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 1: 
make_integer_sequence<int, 0> is an alias for the type integer_sequence<int>.
