### 25.5.6 Class template elements_of [range.elementsof]

Specializations of elements_of encapsulate a range and
act as a tag in overload sets to disambiguate
when a range should be treated as a sequence
rather than a single value[.](#sentence-1)

[*Example [1](#example-1)*: template<bool YieldElements> generator<any> f(ranges::[input_range](range.refinements#concept:input_range "25.4.6 Other range refinements [range.refinements]") auto&& r) {if constexpr (YieldElements)co_yield ranges::elements_of(r); // yield each element of relseco_yield r; // yield r as a single value} — *end example*]
