Call signature
template< std::input_iterator I1, std::sentinel_for<I1> S1, std::input_iterator I2, std::sentinel_for<I2> S2, class Proj1 = std::identity, class Proj2 = std::identity, std::indirect_strict_weak_order< std::projected<I1, Proj1>, std::projected<I2, Proj2>> Comp = ranges::less > constexpr bool includes( I1 first1, S1 last1, I2 first2, S2 last2, Comp comp = {}, Proj1 proj1 = {}, Proj2 proj2 = {} )	(1)	(since C++20)
template< ranges::input_range R1, ranges::input_range R2, class Proj1 = std::identity, class Proj2 = std::identity, std::indirect_strict_weak_order< std::projected<ranges::iterator_t<R1>, Proj1>, std::projected<ranges::iterator_t<R2>, Proj2>> Comp = ranges::less > constexpr bool includes( R1&& r1, R2&& r2, Comp comp = {}, Proj1 proj1 = {}, Proj2 proj2 = {} )	(2)	(since C++20)

1) Returns true if the projections of the sorted range [first2, last2) is a subsequence of the projections of the sorted range [first1, last1).

2) Same as (1), but uses r1 and r2 as the source ranges, as if by using ranges::begin(r1) and ranges::begin(r2) as first1 and first2 respectively, and ranges::end(r1) and ranges::end(r2) as last1 and last2 respectively.

Both ranges must be sorted with the given comparison function comp. A subsequence need not be contiguous.

The function-like entities described on this page are niebloids, that is:

Explicit template argument lists may not be specified when calling any of them.
None of them is visible to argument-dependent lookup.
When one of them is found by normal unqualified lookup for the name to the left of the function-call operator, it inhibits argument-dependent lookup.

In practice, they may be implemented as function objects, or with special compiler extensions.

Parameters

first1, last1	-	the sorted range of elements to examine
r1	-	the sorted range of elements to examine
first2, last2	-	the sorted range of elements to search for
r2	-	the sorted range of elements to search for
comp	-	comparison function to apply to the projected elements
proj1	-	projection to apply to the elements in the first range
proj2	-	projection to apply to the elements in the second range

Return value

true if [first2, last2) is a subsequence of [first1, last1); otherwise false.

Complexity

At most $\scriptsize 2 \cdot (N_1+N_2-1)$ $2\cdot(N 1 +N 2 -1)$ comparisons, where $\scriptsize N_1$ $N 1$ is ranges::distance(r1) and $\scriptsize N_2$ $N 2$ is ranges::distance(r2).

Example

Run this code

#include <algorithm>
#include <cctype>
#include <initializer_list>
#include <iomanip>
#include <iostream>
#include <locale>
#include <string>
 
template <class T>
std::ostream& operator<<(std::ostream& os, std::initializer_list<T> const& list)
{
    for (os << "{ "; auto const& elem : list)
        os << elem << ' ';
    return os << "} ";
}
 
struct true_false : std::numpunct<char>
{
    std::string do_truename() const { return "? Yes\n"; }
    std::string do_falsename() const { return "? No\n"; }
};
 
int main()
{
    std::cout.imbue(std::locale(std::cout.getloc(), new true_false));
 
    auto ignore_case = [](char a, char b) { return std::tolower(a) < std::tolower(b); };
 
    const auto
        a = {'a', 'b', 'c'},
        b = {'a', 'c'},
        c = {'a', 'a', 'b'},
        d = {'g'},
        e = {'a', 'c', 'g'},
        f = {'A', 'B', 'C'},
        z = {'a', 'b', 'c', 'f', 'h', 'x'};
 
    std::cout
        << z << "includes\n" << std::boolalpha
        << a << std::ranges::includes(z.begin(), z.end(), a.begin(), a.end())
        << b << std::ranges::includes(z, b)
        << c << std::ranges::includes(z, c)
        << d << std::ranges::includes(z, d)
        << e << std::ranges::includes(z, e)
        << f << std::ranges::includes(z, f, ignore_case);
}

Output:

{ a b c f h x } includes
{ a b c } ? Yes
{ a c } ? Yes
{ a a b } ? No
{ g } ? No
{ a c g } ? No
{ A B C } ? Yes
