reverse_iterator rbegin();
(1) (noexcept since C++11)
const_reverse_iterator rbegin() const;
(2) (noexcept since C++11)
const_reverse_iterator crbegin() const noexcept;
(3) (since C++11)

Returns a reverse iterator to the first element of the reversed deque. It corresponds to the last element of the non-reversed deque. If the deque is empty, the returned iterator is equal to rend().

Parameters

(none)

Return value

Reverse iterator to the first element.

Complexity

Constant.

Notes

The underlying iterator of the returned reverse iterator is the end iterator. Hence the returned iterator is invalidated if and when the end iterator is invalidated.

libc++ backports crbegin() to C++98 mode.

Example

#include <algorithm>
#include <iostream>
#include <numeric>
#include <string>
#include <deque>
 
int main()
{
    std::deque<int> nums{1, 2, 4, 8, 16};
    std::deque<std::string> fruits{"orange", "apple", "raspberry"};
    std::deque<char> empty;
 
    // Print deque.
    std::for_each(nums.rbegin(), nums.rend(), [](const int n) { std::cout << n << ' '; });
    std::cout << '\n';
 
    // Sums all integers in the deque nums (if any), printing only the result.
    std::cout << "Sum of nums: "
              << std::accumulate(nums.rbegin(), nums.rend(), 0) << '\n';
 
    // Prints the first fruit in the deque fruits, checking if there is any.
    if (!fruits.empty())
        std::cout << "First fruit: " << *fruits.rbegin() << '\n';
 
    if (empty.rbegin() == empty.rend())
        std::cout << "deque 'empty' is indeed empty.\n";
}

Output:

16 8 4 2 1
Sum of nums: 31
First fruit: raspberry
deque 'empty' is indeed empty.
