[section nth_of_c]
[h1 Synopsis]
template <int N, class... Ps>
struct nth_of_c;
This is a [link parser_combinator parser combinator].
[table Arguments
[[Name] [Type]]
[[`N`] [`int` value in the range `[0..sizeof...(Ps)]`]]
[[`Ps`] [[link parser parser]s]]
]
[h1 Description]
`nth_of_c` applies the `Ps...` parsers in sequence. It accepts an input
when all of these parsers accept it. The result of parsing is the result of the
`N`. parser.
On compilers, which are not C++11-compliant, the maximum number of parsers
`nth_of_c` accepts can be specified with the
`BOOST_METAPARSE_LIMIT_SEQUENCE_SIZE` macro. Its default value is `5`.
[h1 Header]
#include <boost/metaparse/nth_of.hpp>
[h1 Expression semantics]
For any `p0`, ..., `pn` parsers and `k` integer value, where `0 <= k < n` the
following are equivalent
nth_of_c<k, p0, ..., pn>
transform<sequence<p0, ..., pn>, boost::mpl::at_c<boost::mpl::_1, k>>
