const T * begin ( ) const noexcept ;		(since C++11) (constexpr since C++14)

Obtains a pointer to the first element in the initializer list.

If the initializer list is empty, the values of begin() and end() are unspecified, but will be identical.

Parameters

(none)

Return value

A pointer to the first element in the initializer list

Complexity

Constant

Example

Run this code

#include <initializer_list>
 
int main()
{
    static constexpr auto il = {42, 24};
    static_assert(*il.begin() == 0x2A);
    static_assert(il.begin()[1] == 030);
}
