advance
=======
``boost::iterators::advance`` is an adapted version of ``std::advance`` for
the Boost iterator traversal concepts.
Header
------
``<boost/iterator/advance.hpp>``
Synopsis
--------
::
template <typename Iterator, typename Distance>
constexpr void advance(Iterator& it, Distance n);
Description
-----------
Moves ``it`` forward by ``n`` increments
(or backward by ``|n|`` decrements if ``n`` is negative).
Requirements
------------
``Iterator`` should model Incrementable Iterator.
Preconditions
-------------
Let ``it``\ :sub:`i` be the iterator obtained by incrementing
(or decrementing if ``n`` is negative) ``it`` by *i*. All the iterators
``it``\ :sub:`i` for *i* = 0, 1, 2, ..., ``|n|`` should be valid.
If ``Iterator`` does not model Bidirectional Traversal Iterator,
``n`` should be non-negative.
Complexity
----------
If ``Iterator`` models Random Access Traversal Iterator, it takes constant time;
otherwise it takes linear time.
Notes
-----
- This function is not a customization point and is protected against
being found by argument-dependent lookup (ADL).
- This function is ``constexpr`` only in C++14 or later.
