<p>Returns the previous iterator in the sequence. [<em>Note:</em> <tt class="literal"><span class="pre"><a href="./prior.html" class="identifier">prior</a></span></tt> has a number of
overloaded meanings, depending on the type of its argument. For instance,
if <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">X</span></tt> is an <a class="reference internal" href="./integral-constant.html">Integral Constant</a>, <tt class="literal"><span class="pre"><a href="./prior.html" class="identifier">prior</a>&lt;X&gt;</span></tt> returns an decremented

iterator-specific. Please refer to the corresponding concept's
documentation for the details of the alternative semantics — <em>end note</em>].</p>
