[section nth_of]

[h1 Synopsis]

  template <class N, class... Ps>
  struct nth_of;

This is a [link parser_combinator parser combinator].

[table Arguments
  [[Name]       [Type]]
  [[`N`]        [[link boxed_value boxed] integer value in the range `[0..sizeof...(Ps)]`]]
  [[`Ps`]       [[link parser parser]s]]
]

[h1 Description]

`nth_of` applies the `Ps...` parsers in sequence. It accepts an input when all
of these parsers accept it. The result of parsing is the result of the `N`.
parser.

On compilers, which are not C++11-compliant, the maximum number of parsers
`nth_of` accepts can be specified with the `BOOST_METAPARSE_LIMIT_SEQUENCE_SIZE`
macro. Its default value is `5`.

[h1 Header]

  #include <boost/metaparse/nth_of.hpp>

[h1 Expression semantics]

For any `p0`, ..., `pn` parsers and `k` boxed integer value the following are
equivalent

  nth_of<k, p0, ..., pn>
  
  nth_of_c<k::type::value, p0, ..., pn>
