Bidirectional Traversal Concept
...............................
A class or built-in type ``X`` models the *Bidirectional Traversal*
concept if, in addition to ``X`` meeting the requirements of Forward
Traversal Iterator, the following expressions are valid and respect
the stated semantics.

|``--r`` |``X&`` |pre: there exists |
| | |``s`` such that ``r |
| | |== ++s``. post: |
| | |``s`` is |

| | |``--(++r) == r``. |
| | |``--r == --s`` |
| | |implies ``r == |
