Range Algorithms, Views and Actions: A Comprehensive Guide
STL algorithms are something every C++ programmer should know. With ranges being voted in C++ 20, there are even more useful tools that we should at least be aware of, if not use daily.
Using ranges helps writing a code which is great in expressiveness and safety and does not fall behind in performance. In this talk we will cover what ranges add to the C++20 standard library, as well as go over all the different views and actions available in range-v3 library which can be used today.
This talk is inspired by Jonathan Boccara’s talk "105 algorithms in less than an hour".

Thank you, very helpful.

[@cre3per_]

why were these functions placed in a new namespace as opposed to overloading the existing functions in std::?

Some have different return types, e.g. std::ranges::for_each also returns the last iterator, while std::for_each does not. So it would make calls ambiguous.

Awesome guide!
