std::deque<T,Allocator>::operator[]

Returns a reference to the element at specified location pos. No bounds checking is performed.

# Declarations

reference operator[]( size_type pos );

const_reference operator[]( size_type pos ) const;

# Parameters

pos: position of the element to return

# Return value

Reference to the requested element.

# Notes

Unlike std::map::operator[], this operator never inserts a new element into the container. Accessing a nonexistent element through this operator is undefined behavior.

# Example

#include <deque>
#include <iostream>
 
int main()
{
    std::deque<int> numbers{2, 4, 6, 8};
 
    std::cout << "Second element: " << numbers[1] << '\n';
 
    numbers[0] = 5;
 
    std::cout << "All numbers:";
    for (auto i : numbers)
        std::cout << ' ' << i;
    std::cout << '\n';
}
