The default implementation of size()
member function obtains the size of the range by calculating the difference between the sentinel and the beginning iterator.

Notes
Following derived types may use the default implementation of size()
:
Following types are derived from std::ranges::view_interface and do not declare their own size()
member function, but they cannot use the default implementation, because their iterator and sentinel types never satisfy sized_sentinel_for
- std::ranges::basic_istream_view
- std::ranges::filter_view
- std::ranges::join_view
- std::ranges::lazy_split_view
- std::ranges::split_view
- std::ranges::take_while_view
