iota_view generates a
sequence of elements by repeatedly incrementing an initial value[.](#1.sentence-1)

The name views​::​iota denotes a
customization point object ([[customization.point.object]](customization.point.object "16.3.3.3.5 Customization Point Object types"))[.](#2.sentence-1)

Given subexpressions E and F, the expressionsviews​::​iota(E) and views​::​iota(E, F) are expression-equivalent toiota_view<decay_t<decltype((E))>>(E) and iota_view(E, F),
respectively[.](#2.sentence-2)

[*Example [1](#example-1)*: for (int i : views::iota(1, 10)) cout << i << ' '; // prints 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 â *end example*]

The name views​::​indices denotes a
customization point object ([[customization.point.object]](customization.point.object "16.3.3.3.5 Customization Point Object types"))[.](#4.sentence-1)

Given subexpression E,
let T be remove_cvref_t<decltype((E))>[.](#4.sentence-2)

views​::​indices(E) is expression-equivalent toviews​::​iota(T(0), E) if *is-integer-like*<T> is true,
and ill-formed otherwise[.](#4.sentence-3)
