Reference to the first element.
Constant.
For a containerc, the expressionc.front() is equivalent to*c.begin().
The following code usesfront to display the first element of astd::array<char,4>:
#include <cassert>#include <array> int main(){std::array<char,4> letters{'a','b','c','d'};assert(letters.front()=='a');}

| returns a reverse iterator to the end (public member function)[edit] | |
| returns an iterator to the beginning (public member function)[edit] | |
| direct access to the underlying contiguous storage (public member function)[edit] |
