With all of these functions using ranges instead of iterators, all you have to do is just pass the container straight since these cover all overloads.
Instead of using a pair of iterators you can use
ranges::subrange(start, end)
instead etcThese algos are also a lot more optimized and follow the best practices.
The first algo which is multipass is specifically for random_accsess and forward / sized ranges. Every other type of range that is basic like input_range uses a single pass approach.
