distance
========
``boost::iterators::distance`` is an adapted version of ``std::distance`` for
the Boost iterator traversal concepts.
Header
------
``<boost/iterator/distance.hpp>``
Synopsis
--------
::
template <typename Iterator>
constexpr typename iterator_difference<Iterator>::type
distance(Iterator first, Iterator last);
Description
-----------
Computes the (signed) distance from ``first`` to ``last``.
Requirements
------------
``Iterator`` should model Single Pass Iterator.
Preconditions
-------------
If ``Iterator`` models Random Access Traversal Iterator,
``[first, last)`` or ``[last, first)`` should be valid;
otherwise ``[first, last)`` should be valid.
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.
