struct not_equal_to;
(ranges TS)
template <>
struct not_equal_to<void>;
(ranges TS)

Function object for performing comparisons. The primary template invokes operator == on const lvalues of type T and negates the result. The specialization not_equal_to<void> deduces the parameter types of the function call operator from the arguments (but not the return type).

All specializations of not_equal_to are Semiregular.

std::experimental::ranges::not_equal_to::operator()

constexpr bool operator()(const T& x, const T& y) const;
(1) (member only of primary not_equal_to<T> template)
template< class T, class U >

requires EqualityComparableWith<T, U> ||
/* std::declval<T>() == std::declval<U>() resolves to
a built-in operator comparing pointers */

constexpr bool operator()(T&& t, U&& u) const;
(2) (member only of not_equal_to<void> specialization)
1) Compares x and y. Equivalent to return !ranges::equal_to<>{}(x, y);
2) Compares t and u. Equivalent to return !ranges::equal_to<>{}(std::forward<T>(t), std::forward<U>(u));.

Notes

Unlike std::not_equal_to, ranges::not_equal_to requires both == and != to be valid (via the EqualityComparable and EqualityComparableWith constraints), and is entirely defined in terms of ranges::equal_to. However, the implementation is free to use operator!= directly, because those concepts require the results of == and != to be consistent.
