### 23.3.7 Class template forward_list [forward.list]
#### [23.3.7.1](#overview) Overview [[forward.list.overview]](forward.list.overview)
[1](#overview-1)
[#](http://github.com/Eelis/draft/tree/9adde4bc1c62ec234483e63ea3b70a59724c745a/source/containers.tex#L6962)
A forward_list is a container that supports forward iterators and allows
constant time insert and erase operations anywhere within the sequence, with storage
management handled automatically[.](#overview-1.sentence-1)
Fast random access to list elements is not supported[.](#overview-1.sentence-2)
[*Note [1](#overview-note-1)*:
It is intended that forward_list have zero space or time overhead
relative to a hand-written C-style singly linked list[.](#overview-1.sentence-3)
Features that would conflict with
that goal have been omitted[.](#overview-1.sentence-4)
— *end note*]

[#](http://github.com/Eelis/draft/tree/9adde4bc1c62ec234483e63ea3b70a59724c745a/source/containers.tex#L6972)
A forward_list meets all of the requirements
of a container ([[container.reqmts]](container.reqmts "23.2.2.2Container requirements")),
except that the size() member function is not provided andoperator== has linear complexity[.](#overview-2.sentence-1)
A forward_list also meets all of the requirements
for an allocator-aware container ([[container.alloc.reqmts]](container.alloc.reqmts "23.2.2.5Allocator-aware containers"))[.](#overview-2.sentence-2)
In addition, a forward_list provides the assign member functions and
several of the optional sequence container requirements ([[sequence.reqmts]](sequence.reqmts "23.2.4Sequence containers"))[.](#overview-2.sentence-3)
Descriptions are provided here only for operations onforward_list that are not described in that table or for operations where there
is additional semantic information[.](#overview-2.sentence-4)

[*Note [2](#overview-note-2)*:
Modifying any list requires access to the element preceding the first element
of interest, but in a forward_list there is no constant-time way to access a
preceding element[.](#overview-3.sentence-1)
For this reason, erase_after and splice_after take fully-open ranges, not semi-open ranges[.](#overview-3.sentence-2)
