CPPItertools
A C++17 header-only library providing Python-style lazy iteration tools like range, enumerate, zip, and itertools functions.
What is CPPItertools?
CPPItertools is a header-only C++17 library that implements Python-style iteration utilities for modern C++. It provides lazy-evaluated tools like `range`, `enumerate`, `zip`, and combinatorial functions, enabling expressive sequence manipulation without the overhead of eager evaluation. The library solves the problem of verbose and inefficient iteration patterns in C++ by offering a clean, Python-inspired API.
C++ developers working with sequential data processing, algorithm implementation, or scientific computing who want more expressive iteration patterns. It's particularly useful for those familiar with Python's itertools who are writing performance-critical C++ code.
Developers choose CPPItertools because it provides a comprehensive set of lazy-evaluation iteration tools with zero runtime overhead for header-only inclusion. Unlike manual loop writing or other C++ iteration libraries, it offers direct Python semantics translation, proper rvalue/lvalue handling, and optional pipe syntax for fluent chaining.
