[section:DiscreteAxis DiscreteAxis]
A [*DiscreteAxis] is one of two optional refinements of the [link histogram.concepts.Axis [*Axis]] concept, the other one is the [link histogram.concepts.IntervalAxis IntervalAxis]. This concept is for values that do not form intervals, and for axes with intervals that contain exactly one value.
[heading Associated Types]
* [link histogram.concepts.Axis [*Axis]]
* [link histogram.concepts.IntervalAxis [*IntervalAxis]]
[heading Requirements]
* `A` is a type meeting the requirements of [*DiscreteAxis]
* `a` is a value of type `A`
* `V` is the type accepted for conversion into an index
* `v` is a value of type `V`
* `i` is a value of type [headerref boost/histogram/fwd.hpp `boost::histogram::axis::index_type`]
* `AxisIter` is an /RandomAccessIterator/ over the bins of `A`
* `ReAxisIter` is a reverse /RandomAccessIterator/ over the bins of `A`
[table Valid expressions
[[Expression] [Returns] [Semantics, Pre/Post-conditions]]
[
[`a.value(i)`]
[`V`]
[
Const member function which maps an index to a value. The mapping must be injective: each index must be uniquely mapped to one value. The effect must be exactly the inverse of `a.index(v)`. The return value may be a const reference, if the lifetime of the referred object is equal to the lifetime of the axis.
]
]
[
[`a.bin(i)`]
[`V`]
[
Must have the same effect as `a.value(i)`.
]
]
[
[`s.begin()`]
[`AxisIter`]
[
Const member function which return an iterator to the bin with index `0`.
]
]
[
[`s.end()`]
[`AxisIter`]
[
Const member function which returns an iterator to the bin with index `s.size()`.
]
]
[
[`s.rbegin()`]
[`ReAxisIter`]
[
Const member function which return a reverse iterator to the bin with index `s.size()-1`.
]
]
[
[`s.rend()`]
[`ReAxisIter`]
[
Const member function which returns an iterator to the bin with index `-1`.
]
]
]
[tip The complete iterator interface can be added to a user-defined axis which implements `a.bin(i)` by inheriting from the [classref boost::histogram::axis::iterator_mixin iterator_mixin].]
