Defined in header <ranges>
template< ranges::input_range V, std::size_t N >     requires         view<V> &&         __HasTupleElement<ranges::range_value_t<V>, N> &&         __HasTupleElement<std::remove_reference_t<ranges::range_reference_t<V>>, N> class elements_view : public ranges::view_interface<elements_view<V, N>>;	(1)	(since C++20)
namespace views {     inline constexpr /*unspecified*/ elements = /*unspecified*/; }	(2)	(since C++20)
Helper concept
template< class T, std::size_t N > concept __HasTupleElement =  // exposition only     requires(T t) {         typename std::tuple_size<T>::type;         requires N < std::tuple_size_v<T>;         typename std::tuple_element_t<N, T>;         { std::get<N>(t) } -> std::convertible_to<const std::tuple_element_t<N, T>&>;     };	(3)	(since C++20)

1) Accepts a view of tuple-like values, and issues a view with a value-type of the Nth element of the adapted view's value-type, where N is the non-type template parameter.

2) Range adaptor object. The expression views​::​elements<N>(E) is expression-equivalent to elements_­view<views​::​all_­t<decltype((E))>, N>{E} for any suitable subexpression E and constant expression N.

3) Ensures that the elements of the underlying view are tuple-like values.

elements_view models the concepts random_access_range, bidirectional_range, forward_range, input_range, common_range, and sized_range when the underlying view V models respective concepts.

Expression-equivalent

Expression e is expression-equivalent to expression f, if e and f have the same effects, either are both potentially-throwing or are both not potentially-throwing (i.e. noexcept(e) == noexcept(f)), and either are both constant subexpressions or are both not constant subexpressions.

Member functions

(constructor)	constructs a elements_view (public member function)
base	returns a copy of the underlying (adapted) view (public member function)
begin	returns an iterator to the beginning (public member function)
end	returns an iterator or a sentinel to the end (public member function)
size	returns the number of elements. Provided only if the underlying (adapted) range satisfies sized_range (public member function)

Nested classes

iterator	the iterator type (public member class)
sentinel	the sentinel type (public member class)

Helper templates

template<class T, std::size_t N> inline constexpr bool enable_borrowed_range<std::ranges::elements_view<T, N>> =     std::ranges::enable_borrowed_range<T>;		(since C++20)

This specialization of std::ranges::enable_borrowed_range makes elements_view satisfy borrowed_range when the underlying view satisfies it.

Example

Run this code

#include <iostream>
#include <ranges>
#include <tuple>
#include <vector>
 
int main()
{
    const std::vector<std::tuple<int, char, std::string>> vt {
        {1, 'A', "α"},
        {2, 'B', "β"},
        {3, 'C', "γ"},
        {4, 'D', "δ"},
        {5, 'E', "ε"},
    };
 
    for (int const e: std::views::elements<0>(vt)) { std::cout << e << ' '; }
    std::cout << '\n';
    for (char const e: std::views::elements<1>(vt)) { std::cout << e << ' '; }
    std::cout << '\n';
    for (std::string const& e: std::views::elements<2>(vt)) { std::cout << e << ' '; }
    std::cout << '\n';
}

Output:

1 2 3 4 5 
A B C D E 
α β γ δ ε
