Really, you're returning the difference_type and not the size_type?

Yes, that was the intension. Iterators don't have a size_type per se, and so it complicated the whole thing a little to make the user worry about this.

I think that "size" was an inappropriate name. I don't know why "distance_of_random_access" was named "size". Iterators don't have a "size" per se. :-) Regards, -- Shunsuke Sogame
