std::div_sat(3)		      C++ Standard Libary	       std::div_sat(3)

NAME
       std::div_sat - std::div_sat

Synopsis
	  Defined in header <numeric>
	  template< class T >			     (since C++26)
	  constexpr T div_sat( T x, T y	) noexcept;

	  Computes  the	 saturating  division  x / y. If T is a	signed integer
       type, x is the
	  smallest (most negative) value of T, and y ==	-1, returns the	great-
       est value of T;
	  otherwise, returns x / y.

	  y must not be	0, otherwise the behavior is undefined.	 The  function
       call is not a
	  core constant	expression if undefined	behavior happens.

	  This	overload  participates	in overload resolution only if T is an
       integer type, that
	  is: signed char, short, int, long, long long,	an extended signed in-
       teger type, or an
	  unsigned version of such types. In particular, T must	not be (possi-
       bly cv-qualified)
	  bool,	char, wchar_t, char8_t,	char16_t, and char32_t,	as these types
       are not
	  intended for arithmetic.

Parameters
	  x, y - integer values

Return value
	  Saturated x /	y.

Exceptions
	  Throws no exceptions.

Notes
	  Unlike the built-in arithmetic operators on integers,	 the  integral
       promotion does
	  not apply to the x and y arguments.

	  If  two  arguments  of  different type are passed, the call fails to
       compile,	i.e. the
	  behavior relative to template	argument deduction is the same as  for
       std::min	or
	  std::max.

	  Most	modern hardware	architectures have efficient support for satu-
       ration arithmetic
	  on SIMD vectors, including SSE2 for x86 and NEON for ARM.

	  {
	      if constexpr (std::is_signed_v<T>)

		      return std::numeric_limits<T>::max();

	#include <climits>
	#include <numeric>

	static_assert

	    && (std::div_sat<unsigned>(6, 3) ==	2) // not saturated
	);
