std::ranges::max(3)	       C++ Standard Libary	     std::ranges::max(3)

NAME
     std::ranges::max - std::ranges::max

Synopsis
	Defined in header <algorithm>
	Call signature
	template< class T, class Proj = std::identity,

		  std::indirect_strict_weak_order<
     (since
		      std::projected<const  T*,  Proj>>  Comp  =  ranges::less >
     (1) C++20)
	constexpr const T&

	    max( const T& a, const T& b, Comp comp = {}, Proj proj = {} );
	template< std::copyable T, class Proj = std::identity,

		  std::indirect_strict_weak_order<
     (since
		      std::projected<const T*,	Proj>>	Comp  =  ranges::less  >
     (2) C++20)
	constexpr T

	    max( std::initializer_list<T> r, Comp comp = {}, Proj proj = {} );
	template< ranges::input_range R, class Proj = std::identity,

		  std::indirect_strict_weak_order<
		      std::projected<ranges::iterator_t<R>, Proj>> Comp =
	ranges::less							       >
     (3) (since
	requires	std::indirectly_copyable_storable<ranges::iterator_t<R>,
     C++20)
						   ranges::range_value_t<R>*>
	constexpr ranges::range_value_t<R>

	    max( R&& r, Comp comp = {}, Proj proj = {} );

	Returns the greater of the given projected values.

	1) Returns the greater of a and b.
	2) Returns the first greatest value in the initializer list r.
	3) Returns the first greatest value in the range r.

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

	  * Explicit template argument lists cannot be	specified  when  calling
     any of them.
	  * None of them are visible to argument-dependent lookup.
	  *  When any of them are found by normal unqualified lookup as the name
     to the left
	    of the function-call operator, argument-dependent lookup  is  inhib-
     ited.

	In  practice,  they may be implemented as function objects, or with spe-
     cial compiler
	extensions.

Parameters
	a, b - the values to compare
	r    - the range of values to compare
	comp - comparison to apply to the projected elements
	proj - projection to apply to the elements

Return value
	1) The greater of a and b, according to their respective projected  val-
     ues. If they
	are equivalent, returns a.
	2,3)  The  greatest  value in r, according to the projection. If several
     values are
	equivalent to the greatest, returns the leftmost one. If  the  range  is
     empty (as
	determined by ranges::distance(r)), the behavior is undefined.

Complexity
	1) Exactly one comparison.
	2,3) Exactly ranges::distance(r) - 1 comparisons.

Possible implementation
       struct max_fn
       {
	   template<class T, class Proj = std::identity,
		    std::indirect_strict_weak_order<
			std::projected<const T*, Proj>> Comp = ranges::less>
	   constexpr
	   const T& operator()(const T& a, const T& b, Comp comp = {}, Proj proj
     = {}) const
	   {
	       return  std::invoke(comp, std::invoke(proj, a), std::invoke(proj,
     b)) ? b : a;
	   }

	   template<std::copyable T, class Proj = std::identity,
		    std::indirect_strict_weak_order<
			std::projected<const T*, Proj>> Comp = ranges::less>
	   constexpr
	   T operator()(std::initializer_list<T> r, Comp comp = {}, Proj proj  =
     {}) const
	   {
	       return *ranges::max_element(r, std::ref(comp), std::ref(proj));
	   }

	   template<ranges::input_range R, class Proj = std::identity,
		    std::indirect_strict_weak_order<
			 std::projected<ranges::iterator_t<R>,	 Proj>>  Comp  =
     ranges::less>
	   requires std::indirectly_copyable_storable<ranges::iterator_t<R>,
						      ranges::range_value_t<R>*>
	   constexpr
	   ranges::range_value_t<R> operator()(R&& r, Comp comp = {}, Proj  proj
     = {}) const
	   {
	       using V = ranges::range_value_t<R>;
	       if constexpr (ranges::forward_range<R>)
		   return
		       static_cast<V>(*ranges::max_element(r,	 std::ref(comp),
     std::ref(proj)));
	       else
	       {
		   auto i = ranges::begin(r);
		   auto s = ranges::end(r);
		   V m(*i);
		   while (++i != s)
		       if  (std::invoke(comp,  std::invoke(proj,  m),	std::in-
     voke(proj, *i)))
			   m = *i;
		   return m;
	       }
	   }
       };

       inline constexpr max_fn max;

Notes
	Capturing  the	result	of std::ranges::max by reference produces a dan-
     gling reference
	if one of the parameters is a temporary and that parameter is returned:

      int n = -1;
      const int& r = std::ranges::max(n + 2, n * 2); // r is dangling

Example
     // Run this code

      #include <algorithm>
      #include <iostream>
      #include <string>

      static_assert(std::ranges::max({0B10, 0X10, 010, 10}) == 16); //	overload
     (2)

      int main()
      {
	  namespace ranges = std::ranges;
	  using namespace std::string_view_literals;

	  std::cout << "larger of 1 and 9999: " << ranges::max(1, 9999) << '\n'
		    <<	"larger  of 'a', and 'b': '" << ranges::max('a', 'b') <<
     "'\n"
		    << "longest of \"foo\", \"bar\", and \"hello\": \""
		    << ranges::max({"foo"sv, "bar"sv, "hello"sv}, {},
				   &std::string_view::size) << "\"\n";
      }

Output:
      larger of 1 and 9999: 9999
      larger of 'a', and 'b': 'b'
      longest of "foo", "bar", and "hello": "hello"
