Defined in header <functional>
struct greater;		(since C++20)

Function object for performing comparisons. Deduces the parameter types of the function call operator from the arguments (but not the return type).

Member types

Member type	Definition
is_transparent	/* unspecified */

Member functions

operator()

checks if the first argument is greater than the second (public member function)

std::ranges::greater::operator()

template< class T, class U >     requires std::totally_ordered_with<T, U> ||              /* std::declval<U>() < std::declval<T>() resolves to                 a built-in operator comparing pointers */ constexpr bool operator()(T&& t, U&& u) const;

Compares t and u. Equivalent to return ranges::less{}(std::forward<U>(u), std::forward<T>(t));.

Notes

Unlike std::greater, std::ranges::greater requires all six comparison operators <, <=, >, >=, == and != to be valid (via the totally_ordered_with constraint) and is entirely defined in terms of std::ranges::less. However, the implementation is free to use operator> directly, because those concepts require the results of the comparison operators to be consistent.
