Returns an iterator pointing to the first element in the forward_list container.
Notice that, unlike member forward_list::front, which returns a reference to the first element, this function returns a forward iterator pointing to it.
If the container is empty, the returned iterator value shall not be dereferenced.
If the forward_list object is const-qualified, the function returns a const_iterator. Otherwise, it returns an iterator.
Member types iterator and const_iterator are forward iterator types (pointing to an element and to a const element, respectively).
Output:
No contained elements are accessed by the call, but the iterator returned can be used to access or modify elements. Concurrently accessing or modifying different elements is safe.
The copy construction or assignment of the returned iterator is also guaranteed to never throw.

Return iterator to beginning
Notice that, unlike member forward_list::front, which returns a reference to the first element, this function returns a forward iterator pointing to it.
If the container is empty, the returned iterator value shall not be dereferenced.
Parameters
noneReturn Value
An iterator to the beginning of the sequence container.If the forward_list object is const-qualified, the function returns a const_iterator. Otherwise, it returns an iterator.
Member types iterator and const_iterator are forward iterator types (pointing to an element and to a const element, respectively).
Example

Output:
mylist contains: 34 77 16 2 |
Complexity
Constant.Iterator validity
No changes.Data races
The container is accessed (neither the const nor the non-const versions modify the container).No contained elements are accessed by the call, but the iterator returned can be used to access or modify elements. Concurrently accessing or modifying different elements is safe.
Exception safety
No-throw guarantee: this member function never throws exceptions.The copy construction or assignment of the returned iterator is also guaranteed to never throw.
