constexpr auto crbegin(const C &c) -> decltype(std::rbegin(c));
Returns an iterator to the reverse-beginning of the given container c or array array.
1) Returns a possibly const-qualified iterator to the reverse-beginning of the container c.
2) Returns std::reverse_iterator<T*> to the reverse-beginning of the array array.
3) Returns a const-qualified iterator to the reverse-beginning of the container c.

Parameters
c – a container with a rbegin method
array – an array of arbitrary type
Return value
An iterator to the reverse-beginning of c or array
Notes
In addition to being included in <iterator>, std::rbegin and std::crbegin are guaranteed to become available if any of the following headers are included: <array>, <deque>, <forward_list>, <list>, <map>, <regex>, <set>
, <span>
(since C++20), <string>
, <string_view>
(since C++17), <unordered_map>, <unordered_set>, and <vector>.
Overloads
Custom overloads of rbegin may be provided for classes that do not expose a suitable rbegin() member function, yet can be iterated. The following overload is already provided by the standard library:
rbegin(std::initializer_list) specializes std::rbegin
(C++14)
Example
// Run this code
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <iterator>
int main()
{
std::vector<int> v = {3, 1, 4};
auto vi = std::rbegin(v);
std::cout << *vi << '\n';
int a[] = {-5, 10, 15};
auto ai = std::rbegin(a);
std::cout << *ai << '\n';
}
