// This header file defines a `Span<T>` type for holding a view of an existing
// array of data. The `Span` object, much like the `absl::string_view` object,
// does not own such data itself. A span provides a lightweight way to pass
// around view of such data.
//
// Additionally, this header file defines `MakeSpan()` and `MakeConstSpan()`
// factory functions, for clearly creating spans of type `Span<T>` or read-only
// `Span<const T>` when such types may be difficult to identify due to issues
// with implicit conversion.
//
// The C++ standards committee currently has a proposal for a `std::span` type,
// (http://wg21.link/p0122), which is not yet part of the standard (though may
// become part of C++20). As of August 2017, the differences between
// `absl::Span` and this proposal are:
//    * `absl::Span` uses `size_t` for `size_type`
//    * `absl::Span` has no `operator()`
//    * `absl::Span` has no constructors for `std::unique_ptr` or
//      `std::shared_ptr`
//    * `absl::Span` has the factory functions `MakeSpan()` and
//      `MakeConstSpan()`
//    * `absl::Span` has `front()` and `back()` methods
//    * bounds-checked access to `absl::Span` is accomplished with `at()`
//    * `absl::Span` has compiler-provided move and copy constructors and
//      assignment. This is due to them being specified as `constexpr`, but that
//      implies const in C++11.
//    * `absl::Span` has no `element_type` or `index_type` typedefs
//    * A read-only `absl::Span<const T>` can be implicitly constructed from an
//      initializer list.
//    * `absl::Span` has no `bytes()`, `size_bytes()`, `as_bytes()`, or
//      `as_mutable_bytes()` methods
//    * `absl::Span` has no static extent template parameter, nor constructors
//      which exist only because of the static extent parameter.
//    * `absl::Span` has an explicit mutable-reference constructor
//

//------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Span
//------------------------------------------------------------------------------
//
// A `Span` is an "array view" type for holding a view of a contiguous data
// array; the `Span` object does not and cannot own such data itself. A span
// provides an easy way to provide overloads for anything operating on
// contiguous sequences without needing to manage pointers and array lengths
// manually.

// A span is conceptually a pointer (ptr) and a length (size) into an already
// existing array of contiguous memory; the array it represents references the
// elements "ptr[0] .. ptr[size-1]". Passing a properly-constructed `Span`
// instead of raw pointers avoids many issues related to index out of bounds
// errors.
//
// Spans may also be constructed from containers holding contiguous sequences.
// Such containers must supply `data()` and `size() const` methods (e.g
// `std::vector<T>`, `absl::InlinedVector<T, N>`). All implicit conversions to
// `absl::Span` from such containers will create spans of type `const T`;
// spans which can mutate their values (of type `T`) must use explicit
// constructors.
//
// A `Span<T>` is somewhat analogous to an `absl::string_view`, but for an array
// of elements of type `T`. A user of `Span` must ensure that the data being
// pointed to outlives the `Span` itself.
//
// You can construct a `Span<T>` in several ways:
//
//   * Explicitly from a reference to a container type
//   * Explicitly from a pointer and size
//   * Implicitly from a container type (but only for spans of type `const T`)
//   * Using the `MakeSpan()` or `MakeConstSpan()` factory functions.
//
// Examples:
//
//   // Construct a Span explicitly from a container:
//   std::vector<int> v = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5};
//   auto span = absl::Span<const int>(v);
//
//   // Construct a Span explicitly from a C-style array:
//   int a[5] =  {1, 2, 3, 4, 5};
//   auto span = absl::Span<const int>(a);
//
//   // Construct a Span implicitly from a container
//   void MyRoutine(absl::Span<const int> a) {
//     ...
//   }
//   std::vector v = {1,2,3,4,5};
//   MyRoutine(v)                     // convert to Span<const T>
//
// Note that `Span` objects, in addition to requiring that the memory they
// point to remains alive, must also ensure that such memory does not get
// reallocated. Therefore, to avoid undefined behavior, containers with
// associated span views should not invoke operations that may reallocate memory
// (such as resizing) or invalidate iterators into the container.
//
// One common use for a `Span` is when passing arguments to a routine that can
// accept a variety of array types (e.g. a `std::vector`, `absl::InlinedVector`,
// a C-style array, etc.). Instead of creating overloads for each case, you
// can simply specify a `Span` as the argument to such a routine.
//
// Example:
//
//   void MyRoutine(absl::Span<const int> a) {
//     ...
//   }
//
//   std::vector v = {1,2,3,4,5};
//   MyRoutine(v);
//
//   absl::InlinedVector<int, 4> my_inline_vector;
//   MyRoutine(my_inline_vector);
//
//   // Explicit constructor from pointer,size
//   int* my_array = new int[10];
//   MyRoutine(absl::Span<const int>(my_array, 10));

// MakeSpan()
//
// Constructs a mutable `Span<T>`, deducing `T` automatically from either a
// container or pointer+size.
//
// Because a read-only `Span<const T>` is implicitly constructed from container
// types regardless of whether the container itself is a const container,
// constructing mutable spans of type `Span<T>` from containers requires
// explicit constructors. The container-accepting version of `MakeSpan()`
// deduces the type of `T` by the constness of the pointer received from the
// container's `data()` member. Similarly, the pointer-accepting version returns
// a `Span<const T>` if `T` is `const`, and a `Span<T>` otherwise.
//
// Examples:
//
//   void MyRoutine(absl::Span<MyComplicatedType> a) {
//     ...
//   };
//   // my_vector is a container of non-const types
//   std::vector<MyComplicatedType> my_vector;
//
//   // Constructing a Span implicitly attempts to create a Span of type
//   // `Span<const T>`
//   MyRoutine(my_vector);                // error, type mismatch
//
//   // Explicitly constructing the Span is verbose
//   MyRoutine(absl::Span<MyComplicatedType>(my_vector));
//
//   // Use MakeSpan() to make an absl::Span<T>
//   MyRoutine(absl::MakeSpan(my_vector));
//
//   // Construct a span from an array ptr+size
//   absl::Span<T> my_span() {
//     return absl::MakeSpan(&array[0], num_elements_);
//   }
