+<h1>Tuple Library : design decisions rationale</h1>
+
+<h2>About namespaces</h2>
+
+<p>
+There was a discussion about whether tuples should be in a separate namespace or directly in the <code>boost</code> namespace.
+The common principle is that domain libraries (like <i>graph</i>, <i>python</i>) should be on a separate
+subnamespace, while utility like libraries directly in the <code>boost</code> namespace.
+Tuples are somewhere in between, as the tuple template is clearly a general utility, but the library introduces quite a lot of names in addition to just the tuple template.
+Tuples were originally under a subnamespace.
+As a result of the discussion, tuple definitions were moved directly under the <code>boost</code> namespace.
+As a result of a continued discussion, the subnamespace was reintroduced.
+The final (I truly hope so) solution is now to have all definitions in namespace <code>::boost::tuples</code>, and the most common names in the <code>::boost</code> namespace as well.
+This is accomplished with using declarations (suggested by Dave Abrahams):</p>
+<pre><code>namespace boost {
+ namespace tuples {
+ ...
+ // All library code
+ ...
+ }
+ using tuples::tuple;
+ using tuples::make_tuple;
+ using tuples::tie;
+ using tuples::get;
+}
+</code></pre>
+<p>With this arrangement, tuple creation with direct constructor calls, <code>make_tuple</code> or <code>tie</code> functions do not need the namespace qualifier.
+Further, all functions that manipulate tuples are found with Koenig-lookup.
+The only exceptions are the <code>get&lt;N&gt;</code> functions, which are always called with an explicitly qualified template argument, and thus Koenig-lookup does not apply.
+Therefore, get is lifted to <code>::boost</code> namespace with a using declaration.
+Hence, the interface for an application programmer is in practice under the namespace <code>::boost</code>.
+</p>
+<p>
+The other names, forming an interface for library writers (cons lists, metafunctions manipulating cons lists, ...) remain in the subnamespace <code>::boost::tuples</code>.
+Note, that the names <code>ignore</code>, <code>set_open</code>, <code>set_close</code> and <code>set_delimiter</code> are considered to be part of the application programmer's interface, but are still not under <code>boost</code> namespace.
+The reason being the danger for name clashes for these common names.
+Further, the usage of these features is probably not very frequent.
+</p>
+
+<h4>For those who are really interested in namespaces</h4>
+
+<p>
+The subnamespace name <i>tuples</i> raised some discussion.
+The rationale for not using the most natural name 'tuple' is to avoid having an identical name with the tuple template.
+Namespace names are, however, not generally in plural form in boost libraries.
+First, no real trouble was reported for using the same name for a namespace and a class and we considered changing the name 'tuples' to 'tuple'.
+But we found some trouble after all.
+Both gcc and edg compilers reject using declarations where the namespace and class names are identical:</p>
+
+<pre><code>namespace boost {
+ namespace tuple {
+ ... tie(...);
+ class tuple;
+&nbsp; ...
+ }
+ using tuple::tie; // ok
+ using tuple::tuple; // error
+ ...
+}
+</code></pre>
+
+<p>Note, however, that a corresponding using declaration in the global namespace seems to be ok:</p>
+
+<pre><code>
+using boost::tuple::tuple; // ok;
+</code></pre>
+
+
+<h2>The end mark of the cons list (nil, null_type, ...)</h2>
+
+<p>
+Tuples are internally represented as <code>cons</code> lists:
+
+<pre><code>tuple&lt;int, int&gt;
+</code></pre>
+<p>inherits from</p>
+<pre><code>cons&lt;int, cons&lt;int, null_type&gt; &gt;
+</code></pre>
+
+<p>
+<code>null_type</code> is the end mark of the list. Original proposition was <code>nil</code>, but the name is used in MacOS, and might have caused problems, so <code>null_type</code> was chosen instead.
+Other names considered were <i>null_t</i> and <i>unit</i> (the empty tuple type in SML).</p>
+<p>
+Note that <code>null_type</code> is the internal representation of an empty tuple: <code>tuple&lt;&gt;</code> inherits from <code>null_type</code>.
+</p>
+
+<h2>Element indexing</h2>
+
+<p>
+Whether to use 0- or 1-based indexing was discussed more than thoroughly, and the following observations were made:</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li> 0-based indexing is 'the C++ way' and used with arrays etc.</li>
+<li> 1-based 'name like' indexing exists as well, eg. <code>bind1st</code>, <code>bind2nd</code>, <code>pair::first</code>, etc.</li>
+</ul>
+<p>Tuple access with the syntax <code>get&lt;N&gt;(a)</code>, or <code>a.get&lt;N&gt;()</code> (where <code>a</code> is a tuple and <code>N</code> an index), was considered to be of the first category, hence, the index of the first element in a tuple is 0.</p>
+
+<p>
+A suggestion to provide 1-based 'name like' indexing with constants like <code>_1st</code>, <code>_2nd</code>, <code>_3rd</code>, ... was made.
+By suitably chosen constant types, this would allow alternative syntaxes:
+
+<pre><code>a.get&lt;0&gt;() == a.get(_1st) == a[_1st] == a(_1st);
+</code></pre>
+
+<p>We chose not to provide more than one indexing method for the following reasons:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>0-based indexing might not please everyone, but once its fixed, it is less confusing than having two different methods (would anyone want such constants for arrays?).</li>
+<li>Adding the other indexing scheme doesn't really provide anything new (like a new feature) to the user of the library.</li>
+<li>C++ variable and constant naming rules don't give many possibilities for defining short and nice index constants (like <code>_1st</code>, ...).
+Let the binding and lambda libraries use these for a better purpose.</li>
+<li>The access syntax <code>a[_1st]</code> (or <code>a(_1st)</code>) is appealing, and almost made us add the index constants after all. However, 0-based subscripting is so deep in C++, that we had a fear for confusion.</li>
+<li>
+Such constants are easy to add.
+</li>
+</ul>
+
+
+<h2>Tuple comparison</h2>
+
+<p>The comparison operator implements lexicographical order.
+Other orderings were considered, mainly dominance (<i>a &lt; b iff for each i a(i) &lt; b(i)</i>).
+Our belief is, that lexicographical ordering, though not mathematically the most natural one, is the most frequently needed ordering in everyday programming.</p>
+
+<h2>Streaming</h2>
+
+<p>
+The characters specified with tuple stream manipulators are stored within the space allocated by <code>ios_base::xalloc</code>, which allocates storage for <code>long</code> type objects.
+<code>static_cast</code> is used in casting between <code>long</code> and the stream's character type.
+Streams that have character types not convertible back and forth to long thus fail to compile.</p>
+
+<p>This may be revisited at some point. The two possible solutions are:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>Allow only plain <code>char</code> types as the tuple delimiters and use <code>widen</code> and <code>narrow</code> to convert between the real character type of the stream.
+This would always compile, but some calls to set manipulators might result in a different
+ character than expected (some default character).</li>
+<li>Allocate enough space to hold the real character type of the stream.
+This means memory for holding the delimiter characters must be allocated separately, and that pointers to this memory are stored in the space allocated with <code>ios_base::xalloc</code>.
+Any volunteers?</li>
+</ul>

+ <h1>Tuple library advanced features</h1>
+
+The advanced features described in this document are all under namespace <code>::boost::tuples</code>
+
+<h2>Metafunctions for tuple types</h2>
+<p>
+Suppose <code>T</code> is a tuple type, and <code>N</code> is a constant integral expression.</p>
+
+<pre><code>element&lt;N, T&gt;::type</code></pre>
+
+<p>gives the type of the <code>N</code>th element in the tuple type <code>T</code>. If <code>T</code> is const, the resulting type is const qualified as well.
+Note that the constness of <code>T</code> does not affect reference type
+elements.
+</p>
+
+<pre><code>length&lt;T&gt;::value</code></pre>
+
+<p>gives the length of the tuple type <code>T</code>.
+</p>
+
+<h2>Cons lists</h2>
+
+<p>
+Tuples are internally represented as <i>cons lists</i>.
+For example, the tuple </p>
+
+<pre><code>tuple&lt;A, B, C, D&gt;</code></pre>
+
+<p>inherits from the type</p>
+<pre><code>cons&lt;A, cons&lt;B, cons&lt;C, cons&lt;D, null_type&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;
+</code></pre>
+
+<p>The tuple template provides the typedef <code>inherited</code> to access the cons list representation. E.g.:
+<code>tuple&lt;A&gt;::inherited</code> is the type <code>cons&lt;A, null_type&gt;</code>.
+</p>
+
+<h4>Empty tuple</h4>
+<p>
+The internal representation of the empty tuple <code>tuple&lt;&gt;</code> is <code>null_type</code>.
+</p>
+
+<h4>Head and tail</h4>
+<p>
+Both tuple template and the cons templates provide the typedefs <code>head_type</code> and <code>tail_type</code>.
+The <code>head_type</code> typedef gives the type of the first element of the tuple (or the cons list).
+The
+<code>tail_type</code> typedef gives the remaining cons list after removing the first element.
+The head element is stored in the member variable <code>head</code> and the tail list in the member variable <code>tail</code>.
+Cons lists provide the member function <code>get_head()</code> for getting a reference to the head of a cons list, and <code>get_tail()</code> for getting a reference to the tail.
+There are const and non-const versions of both functions.
+</p>
+<p>
+Note that in a one element tuple, <code>tail_type</code> equals <code>null_type</code> and the <code>get_tail()</code> function returns an object of type <code>null_type</code>.
+</p>
+<p>
+The empty tuple (<code>null_type</code>) has no head or tail, hence the <code>get_head</code> and <code>get_tail</code> functions are not provided.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+Treating tuples as cons lists gives a convenient means to define generic functions to manipulate tuples. For example, the following pair of function templates assign 0 to each element of a tuple (obviously, the assignments must be valid operations for the element types):
+
+<pre><code>inline void set_to_zero(const null_type&amp;) {};
+
+template &lt;class H, class T&gt;
+inline void set_to_zero(cons&lt;H, T&gt;&amp; x) { x.get_head() = 0; set_to_zero(x.get_tail()); }
+</code></pre>
+<p>
+
+<h4>Constructing cons lists</h4>
+
+<p>
+A cons list can be default constructed provided that all its elements can be default constructed.
+</p>
+<p>
+A cons list can be constructed from its head and tail. The prototype of the constructor is:</p>
+<pre><code>cons(typename access_traits&lt;head_type&gt;::parameter_type h,
+ const tail_type&amp; t)
+</code></pre>
+<p>The traits template for the head parameter selects correct parameter types for different kinds of element types (for reference elements the parameter type equals the element type, for non-reference types the parameter type is a reference to const non-volatile element type).
+</p>
+<p>
+For a one-element cons list the tail argument (<code>null_type</code>) can be omitted.
+</p>
+
+
+<h2>Traits classes for tuple element types</h2>
+
+<h4><code>access_traits</code></h4>
+<p>
+The template <code>access_traits</code> defines three type functions. Let <code>T</code> be a type of an element in a tuple:</p>
+<ol>
+<li><code>access_traits&lt;T&gt;::non_const_type</code> maps <code>T</code> to the return type of the non-const access functions (nonmember and member <code>get</code> functions, and the <code>get_head</code> function).</li>
+<li><code>access_traits&lt;T&gt;::const_type</code> maps <code>T</code> to the return type of the const access functions.</li>
+<li><code>access_traits&lt;T&gt;::parameter_type</code> maps <code>T</code> to the parameter type of the tuple constructor.</li>
+</ol>
+<h4><code>make_tuple_traits</code></h4>
+
+<p>The element types of the tuples that are created with the <code>make_tuple</code> functions are computed with the type function <code>make_tuple_traits</code>.
+The type function call <code>make_tuple_traits&lt;T&gt;::type</code> implements the following type mapping:</p>
+<ul>
+<li><i>any reference type</i> -&gt; <i>compile time error</i>
+</li>
+<li><i>any array type</i> -&gt; <i>constant reference to the array type</i>
+</li>
+<li><code>reference_wrapper&lt;T&gt;</code> -&gt; <code>T&amp;</code>
+</li>
+<li><code>T</code> -&gt; <code>T</code>
+</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>Objects of type <code>reference_wrapper</code> are created with the <code>ref</code> and <code>cref</code> functions (see <A href="tuple_users_guide.html#make_tuple">The <code>make_tuple</code> function</A>.)
+</p>
+
+<p>Reference wrappers were originally part of the tuple library, but they are now a general utility of boost.
+The <code>reference_wrapper</code> template and the <code>ref</code> and <code>cref</code> functions are defined in a separate file <code>ref.hpp</code> in the main boost include directory; and directly in the <code>boost</code> namespace.

+<h1>The Boost Tuple Library</h1>
+
+<p>
+A tuple (or <i>n</i>-tuple) is a fixed size collection of elements.
+Pairs, triples, quadruples etc. are tuples.
+In a programming language, a tuple is a data object containing other objects as elements.
+These element objects may be of different types.
+</p>
+
+<p>Tuples are convenient in many circumstances.
+For instance, tuples make it easy to define functions that return more than one value.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+Some programming languages, such as ML, Python and Haskell, have built-in tuple constructs.
+Unfortunately C++ does not.
+To compensate for this &quot;deficiency&quot;, the Boost Tuple Library implements a tuple construct using templates.

+
+<h2><a name="using_library">Using the library</a></h2>
+
+<p>To use the library, just include:</p>
+
+<pre><code>#include &quot;boost/tuple/tuple.hpp&quot;</code></pre>
+
+<p>Comparison operators can be included with:</p>
+<pre><code>#include &quot;boost/tuple/tuple_comparison.hpp&quot;</code></pre>
+
+<p>To use tuple input and output operators,</p>
+
+<pre><code>#include &quot;boost/tuple/tuple_io.hpp&quot;</code></pre>
+
+<p>Both <code>tuple_io.hpp</code> and <code>tuple_comparison.hpp</code> include <code>tuple.hpp</code>.</p>
+
+<p>All definitions are in namespace <code>::boost::tuples</code>, but the most common names are lifted to namespace
+<code>::boost</code> with using declarations. These names are: <code>tuple</code>, <code>make_tuple</code>, <code>tie</code> and <code>get</code>.
+Further, <code>ref</code> and <code>cref</code> are defined directly under the <code>::boost</code> namespace.</p>
+
+<h2><a name = "tuple_types">Tuple types</a></h2>
+
+<p>A tuple type is an instantiation of the <code>tuple</code> template.
+The template parameters specify the types of the tuple elements.
+The current version supports tuples with 0-10 elements.
+If necessary, the upper limit can be increased up to, say, a few dozen elements.
+The data element can be any C++ type.
+Note that <code>void</code> and plain function types are valid
+C++ types, but objects of such types cannot exist.
+Hence, if a tuple type contains such types as elements, the tuple type
+can exist, but not an object of that type.
+There are natural limitations for element types that cannot
+be copied, or that are not default constructible (see 'Constructing tuples'
+ below). </p>
+
+<p>
+For example, the following definitions are valid tuple instantiations (<code>A</code>, <code>B</code> and <code>C</code> are some user defined classes):</p>
+
+<pre><code>tuple&lt;int&gt;
+tuple&lt;double&amp;, const double&amp;, const double, double*, const double*&gt;
+tuple&lt;A, int(*)(char, int), B(A::*)(C&amp;), C&gt;
+tuple&lt;std::string, std::pair&lt;A, B&gt; &gt;
+tuple&lt;A*, tuple&lt;const A*, const B&amp;, C&gt;, bool, void*&gt;
+</code></pre>
+
+<h2><a name = "constructing_tuples">Constructing tuples</a></h2>
+
+<p>
+The tuple constructor takes the tuple elements as arguments.
+For an <i>n</i>-element tuple, the constructor can be invoked with <i>k</i> arguments, where 0 &lt;= <i>k</i> &lt;= <i>n</i>.
+For example:</p>
+<pre><code>tuple&lt;int, double&gt;()
+tuple&lt;int, double&gt;(1)
+tuple&lt;int, double&gt;(1, 3.14)
+</code></pre>
+
+<p>
+If no initial value for an element is provided, it is default initialized (and hence must be default initializable).
+For example.</p>
+
+<pre><code>class X {
+ X();
+public:
+ X(std::string);
+};
+
+tuple&lt;X,X,X&gt;() // error: no default constructor for X
+tuple&lt;X,X,X&gt;(string(&quot;Jaba&quot;), string(&quot;Daba&quot;), string(&quot;Duu&quot;)) // ok
+</code></pre>
+
+<p>In particular, reference types do not have a default initialization: </p>
+
+<pre><code>tuple&lt;double&amp;&gt;() // error: reference must be
+ // initialized explicitly
+
+double d = 5;
+tuple&lt;double&amp;&gt;(d) // ok
+
+tuple&lt;double&amp;&gt;(d+3.14) // error: cannot initialize
+ // non-const reference with a temporary
+
+tuple&lt;const double&amp;&gt;(d+3.14) // ok, but dangerous:
+ // the element becomes a dangling reference
+</code></pre>
+
+<p>Using an initial value for an element that cannot be copied, is a compile
+time error:</p>
+
+<pre><code>class Y {
+ Y(const Y&amp;);
+public:
+ Y();
+};
+
+char a[10];
+
+tuple&lt;char[10], Y&gt;(a, Y()); // error, neither arrays nor Y can be copied
+tuple&lt;char[10], Y&gt;(); // ok
+</code></pre>
+
+<p>Note particularly that the following is perfectly ok:</p>
+<pre><code>Y y;
+tuple&lt;char(&amp;)[10], Y&amp;&gt;(a, y);
+</code></pre>
+
+<p>It is possible to come up with a tuple type that cannot be constructed.
+This occurs if an element that cannot be initialized has a lower
+index than an element that requires initialization.
+For example: <code>tuple&lt;char[10], int&amp;&gt;</code>.</p>
+
+<p>In sum, the tuple construction is semantically just a group of individual elementary constructions.
+</p>
+
+<h4><a name="make_tuple">The <code>make_tuple</code> function</a></h4>
+
+<p>
+Tuples can also be constructed using the <code>make_tuple</code> (cf. <code>std::make_pair</code>) helper functions.
+This makes the construction more convenient, saving the programmer from explicitly specifying the element types:</p>
+<pre><code>tuple&lt;int, int, double&gt; add_multiply_divide(int a, int b) {
+ return make_tuple(a+b, a*b, double(a)/double(b));
+}
+</code></pre>
+
+<p>
+By default, the element types are deduced to the plain non-reference types. E.g.: </p>
+<pre><code>void foo(const A&amp; a, B&amp; b) {
+ ...
+ make_tuple(a, b);
+</code></pre>
+<p>The <code>make_tuple</code> invocation results in a tuple of type <code>tuple&lt;A, B&gt;</code>.</p>
+
+<p>
+Sometimes the plain non-reference type is not desired, e.g. if the element type cannot be copied.
+Therefore, the programmer can control the type deduction and state that a reference to const or reference to
+non-const type should be used as the element type instead.
+This is accomplished with two helper template functions: <code>ref</code> and <code>cref</code>.
+Any argument can be wrapped with these functions to get the desired type.
+The mechanism does not compromise const correctness since a const object wrapped with <code>ref</code> results
+in a tuple element with const reference type (see the fifth example below).
+For example:</p>
+
+<pre><code>A a; B b; const A ca = a;
+make_tuple(cref(a), b); // creates tuple&lt;const A&amp;, B&gt;
+make_tuple(ref(a), b); // creates tuple&lt;A&amp;, B&gt;
+make_tuple(ref(a), cref(b)); // creates tuple&lt;A&amp;, const B&amp;&gt;
+make_tuple(cref(ca)); // creates tuple&lt;const A&amp;&gt;
+make_tuple(ref(ca)); // creates tuple&lt;const A&amp;&gt;
+</code></pre>
+
+
+<p>
+Array arguments to <code>make_tuple</code> functions are deduced to reference to const types by default; there is no need to wrap them with <code>cref</code>. For example:</p>
+<pre><code>make_tuple(&quot;Donald&quot;, &quot;Daisy&quot;);
+</code></pre>
+
+<p>This creates an object of type <code>tuple&lt;const char (&amp;)[7], const char (&amp;)[6]&gt;</code>
+(note that the type of a string literal is an array of const characters, not <code>const char*</code>).
+However, to get <code>make_tuple</code> to create a tuple with an element of a
+non-const array type one must use the <code>ref</code> wrapper.</p>
+
+<p>
+Function pointers are deduced to the plain non-reference type, that is, to plain function pointer.
+A tuple can also hold a reference to a function,
+but such a tuple cannot be constructed with <code>make_tuple</code> (a const qualified function type would result, which is illegal):</p>
+<pre><code>void f(int i);
+ ...
+make_tuple(&amp;f); // tuple&lt;void (*)(int)&gt;
+ ...
+tuple&lt;tuple&lt;void (&amp;)(int)&gt; &gt; a(f) // ok
+make_tuple(f); // not ok
+</code></pre>
+
+<h2><a name = "accessing_elements">Accessing tuple elements</a></h2>
+
+<p>
+Tuple elements are accessed with the expression:</p>
+
+<pre><code>t.get&lt;N&gt;()
+</code></pre>
+<p>or</p>
+<pre><code>get&lt;N&gt;(t)
+</code></pre>
+<p>where <code>t</code> is a tuple object and <code>N</code> is a constant integral expression specifying the index of the element to be accessed.
+Depending on whether <code>t</code> is const or not, <code>get</code> returns the <code>N</code>th element as a reference to const or
+non-const type.
+The index of the first element is 0 and thus<code>
+N</code> must be between 0 and <code>k-1</code>, where <code>k</code> is the number of elements in the tuple.
+Violations of these constraints are detected at compile time. Examples:</p>
+
+<pre><code>double d = 2.7; A a;
+tuple&lt;int, double&amp;, const A&amp;&gt; t(1, d, a);
+const tuple&lt;int, double&amp;, const A&amp;&gt; ct = t;
+ ...
+int i = get&lt;0&gt;(t); i = t.get&lt;0&gt;(); // ok
+int j = get&lt;0&gt;(ct); // ok
+get&lt;0&gt;(t) = 5; // ok
+get&lt;0&gt;(ct) = 5; // error, can't assign to const
+ ...
+double e = get&lt;1&gt;(t); // ok
+get&lt;1&gt;(t) = 3.14; // ok
+get&lt;2&gt;(t) = A(); // error, can't assign to const
+A aa = get&lt;3&gt;(t); // error: index out of bounds
+ ...
+++get&lt;0&gt;(t); // ok, can be used as any variable
+</code></pre>
+
+<p>
+Note! The member get functions are not supported with MS Visual C++ compiler.
+Further, the compiler has trouble with finding the non-member get functions without an explicit namespace qualifier.
+Hence, all <code>get</code> calls should be qualified as: <code>tuples::get&lt;N&gt;(a_tuple)</code> when writing code that should compile with MSVC++ 6.0.
+</p>
+
+<h2><a name = "construction_and_assignment">Copy construction and tuple assignment</a></h2>
+
+<p>
+A tuple can be copy constructed from another tuple, provided that the element types are element-wise copy constructible.
+Analogously, a tuple can be assigned to another tuple, provided that the element types are element-wise assignable.
+For example:</p>
+
+<pre><code>class A {};
+class B : public A {};
+struct C { C(); C(const B&amp;); };
+struct D { operator C() const; };
+tuple&lt;char, B*, B, D&gt; t;
+ ...
+tuple&lt;int, A*, C, C&gt; a(t); // ok
+a = t; // ok
+</code></pre>
+
+<p>In both cases, the conversions performed are: <code>char -> int</code>, <code>B* -> A*</code> (derived class pointer to base class pointer), <code>B -> C</code> (a user defined conversion) and <code>D -> C</code> (a user defined conversion).</p>
+
+<p>
+Note that assignment is also defined from <code>std::pair</code> types:</p>
+
+<pre><code>tuple&lt;float, int&gt; a = std::make_pair(1, 'a');
+</code></pre>
+
+<h2><a name = "relational_operators">Relational operators</a></h2>
+<p>
+Tuples reduce the operators <code>==, !=, &lt;, &gt;, &lt;=</code> and <code>>=</code> to the corresponding elementary operators.
+This means, that if any of these operators is defined between all elements of two tuples, then the same operator is defined between the tuples as well.
+
+The equality operators for two tuples <code>a</code> and <code>b</code> are defined as:</p>
+<ul>
+<li><code>a == b</code> iff for each <code>i</code>: <code>a<sub>i</sub> == b<sub>i</sub></code></li>
+<li><code>a != b</code> iff exists <code>i</code>: <code>a<sub>i</sub> != b<sub>i</sub></code></li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>The operators <code>&lt;, &gt;, &lt;=</code> and <code>&gt;=</code> implement a lexicographical ordering.</p>
+
+<p>
+Note that an attempt to compare two tuples of different lengths results in a compile time error.
+Also, the comparison operators are <i>"short-circuited"</i>: elementary comparisons start from the first elements and are performed only until the result is clear.</p>
+
+<p>Examples:</p>
+
+<pre><code>tuple&lt;std::string, int, A&gt; t1(std::string(&quot;same?&quot;), 2, A());
+tuple&lt;std::string, long, A&gt; t2(std::string(&quot;same?&quot;), 2, A());
+tuple&lt;std::string, long, A&gt; t3(std::string(&quot;different&quot;), 3, A());
+
+bool operator==(A, A) { std::cout &lt;&lt; &quot;All the same to me...&quot;; return true; }
+
+t1 == t2; // true
+t1 == t3; // false, does not print &quot;All the...&quot;
+</code></pre>
+
+
+<h2><a name = "tiers">Tiers</a></h2>
+
+<p>
+<i>Tiers</i> are tuples, where all elements are of non-const reference types.
+They are constructed with a call to the <code>tie</code> function template (cf. <code>make_tuple</code>):</p>
+
+<pre><code>int i; char c; double d;
+ ...
+tie(i, c, a);
+</code></pre>
+
+<p>
+The above <code>tie</code> function creates a tuple of type <code>tuple&lt;int&amp;, char&amp;, double&amp;&gt;</code>.
+The same result could be achieved with the call <code>make_tuple(ref(i), ref(c), ref(a))</code>.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+A tuple that contains non-const references as elements can be used to 'unpack' another tuple into variables. E.g.:</p>
+
+<pre><code>int i; char c; double d;
+tie(i, c, d) = make_tuple(1,'a', 5.5);
+std::cout &lt;&lt; i &lt;&lt; &quot; &quot; &lt;&lt; c &lt;&lt; &quot; &quot; &lt;&lt; d;
+</code></pre>
+<p>This code prints <code>1 a 5.5</code> to the standard output stream.
+
+A tuple unpacking operation like this is found for example in ML and Python.
+It is convenient when calling functions which return tuples.</p>
+
+<p>
+The tying mechanism works with <code>std::pair</code> templates as well:</p>
+
+<pre><code>int i; char c;
+tie(i, c) = std::make_pair(1, 'a');
+</code></pre>
+<h4>Ignore</h4>
+<p>There is also an object called <code>ignore</code> which allows you to ignore an element assigned by a tuple.
+The idea is that a function may return a tuple, only part of which you are interested in. For example (note, that <code>ignore</code> is under the <code>tuples</code> subnamespace):</p>
+
+<pre><code>char c;
+tie(tuples::ignore, c) = std::make_pair(1, 'a');
+</code></pre>
+
+<h2><a name = "streaming">Streaming</a></h2>
+
+<p>
+The global <code>operator&lt;&lt;</code> has been overloaded for <code>std::ostream</code> such that tuples are
+output by recursively calling <code>operator&lt;&lt;</code> for each element.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+Analogously, the global <code>operator&gt;&gt;</code> has been overloaded to extract tuples from <code>std::istream</code> by recursively calling <code>operator&gt;&gt;</code> for each element.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+The default delimiter between the elements is space, and the tuple is enclosed
+in parenthesis.
+For Example:
+
+<pre><code>tuple&lt;float, int, std::string&gt; a(1.0f, 2, std::string(&quot;Howdy folks!&quot;);
+
+cout &lt;&lt; a;
+</code></pre>
+<p>outputs the tuple as: <code>(1.0 2 Howdy folks!)</code></p>
+
+<p>
+The library defines three <i>manipulators</i> for changing the default behavior:</p>
+<ul>
+<li><code>set_open(char)</code> defines the character that is output before the first
+element.</li>
+<li><code>set_close(char)</code> defines the character that is output after the
+last element.</li>
+<li><code>set_delimiter(char)</code> defines the delimiter character between
+elements.</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>Note, that these manipulators are defined in the <code>tuples</code> subnamespace.
+For example:</p>
+<pre><code>cout &lt;&lt; tuples::set_open('[') &lt;&lt; tuples::set_close(']') &lt;&lt; tuples::set_delimiter(',') &lt;&lt; a;
+</code></pre>
+<p>outputs the same tuple <code>a</code> as: <code>[1.0,2,Howdy folks!]</code></p>
+
+<p>The same manipulators work with <code>operator&gt;&gt;</code> and <code>istream</code> as well. Suppose the <code>cin</code> stream contains the following data:
+
+<pre><code>(1 2 3) [4:5]</code></pre>
+
+<p>The code:</p>
+
+<pre><code>tuple&lt;int, int, int&gt; i;
+tuple&lt;int, int&gt; j;
+
+cin &gt;&gt; i;
+cin &gt;&gt; tuples::set_open('[') &gt;&gt; tuples::set_close(']') &gt;&gt; tuples::set_delimiter(':');
+cin &gt;&gt; j;
+</code></pre>
+
+<p>reads the data into the tuples <code>i</code> and <code>j</code>.</p>
+
+<p>
+Note that extracting tuples with <code>std::string</code> or C-style string
+elements does not generally work, since the streamed tuple representation may not be unambiguously
+parseable.
+</p>
+
+<h2><a name = "performance">Performance</a></h2>
+
+<p>All tuple access and construction functions are small inlined one-liners.
+Therefore, a decent compiler can eliminate any extra cost of using tuples compared to using hand-written tuple like classes.
+Particularly, with a decent compiler there is no performance difference between this code:</p>
+
+<pre><code>class hand_made_tuple {
+ A a; B b; C c;
+public:
+ hand_made_tuple(const A&amp; aa, const B&amp; bb, const C&amp; cc)
+ : a(aa), b(bb), c(cc) {};
+ A&amp; getA() { return a; };
+ B&amp; getB() { return b; };
+ C&amp; getC() { return c; };
+};
+
+hand_made_tuple hmt(A(), B(), C());
+hmt.getA(); hmt.getB(); hmt.getC();
+</code></pre>
+
+<p>and this code:</p>
+
+<pre><code>tuple&lt;A, B, C&gt; t(A(), B(), C());
+t.get&lt;0&gt;(); t.get&lt;1&gt;(); t.get&lt;2&gt;();
+</code></pre>
+
+<p>Note, that there are widely used compilers (e.g. bcc 5.5.1) which fail to optimize this kind of tuple usage.
+</p>
+<p>
+Depending on the optimizing ability of the compiler, the tier mechanism may have a small performance penalty compared to using
+non-const reference parameters as a mechanism for returning multiple values from a function.
+For example, suppose that the following functions <code>f1</code> and <code>f2</code> have equivalent functionalities:</p>
+
+<pre><code>void f1(int&amp;, double&amp;);
+tuple&lt;int, double&gt; f2();
+</code></pre>
+
+<p>Then, the call #1 may be slightly faster than #2 in the code below:</p>
+
+<pre><code>int i; double d;
+ ...
+f1(i,d); // #1
+tie(i,d) = f2(); // #2
+</code></pre>
+<p>See
+[<a href="#publ_1">1</a>,
+<a href="#publ_2">2</a>]
+ for more in-depth discussions about efficiency.</p>
+
+<h4>Effect on Compile Time</h4>
+
+<p>
+Compiling tuples can be slow due to the excessive amount of template instantiations.
+Depending on the compiler and the tuple length, it may be more than 10 times slower to compile a tuple construct, compared to compiling an equivalent explicitly written class, such as the <code>hand_made_tuple</code> class above.
+However, as a realistic program is likely to contain a lot of code in addition to tuple definitions, the difference is probably unnoticeable.
+Compile time increases between 5 and 10 percent were measured for programs which used tuples very frequently.
+With the same test programs, memory consumption of compiling increased between 22% to 27%. See
+[<a href="#publ_1">1</a>,
+<a href="#publ_2">2</a>]
+for details.
+</p>
+
+<h2><a name = "portability">Portability</a></h2>
+
+<p>The library code is(?) standard C++ and thus the library works with a standard conforming compiler.
+Below is a list of compilers and known problems with each compiler:
+</p>
+<table>
+<tr><td><u>Compiler</u></td><td><u>Problems</u></td></tr>
+<tr><td>gcc 2.95</td><td>-</td></tr>
+<tr><td>edg 2.44</td><td>-</td></tr>
+<tr><td>Borland 5.5</td><td>Can't use function pointers or member pointers as tuple elements</td></tr>
+<tr><td>Metrowerks 6.2</td><td>Can't use <code>ref</code> and <code>cref</code> wrappers</td></tr>
+<tr><td>MS Visual C++</td><td>No reference elements (<code>tie</code> still works). Can't use <code>ref</code> and <code>cref</code> wrappers</td></tr>
+</table>
+
+<h2><a name = "thanks">Acknowledgements</a></h2>
+<p>Gary Powell has been an indispensable helping hand. In particular, stream manipulators for tuples were his idea. Doug Gregor came up with a working version for MSVC, David Abrahams found a way to get rid of most of the restrictions for compilers not supporting partial specialization. Thanks to Jeremy Siek, William Kempf and Jens Maurer for their help and suggestions.
+The comments by Vesa Karvonen, John Max Skaller, Ed Brey, Beman Dawes, David Abrahams and Hartmut Kaiser helped to improve the
+library.
+The idea for the tie mechanism came from an old usenet article by Ian McCulloch, where he proposed something similar for std::pairs.</p>
