[edit] Notes

For a container c, the expression c.front() is equivalent to *c.begin().

[edit] Example

The following code uses front to display the first element of a std::dynarray<char>:

#include <dynarray>
#include <iostream>
 
int main()
{
    std::dynarray<char> letters {'o', 'm', 'g', 'w', 't', 'f'};
 
    if (!letters.empty()) {
        std::cout << "The first character is: " << letters.front() << '\n';
    }  
}

Output:

The first character is o
