This isn't the case however. From the standard [alg.sorting] A sequence is sorted with respect to a comparator comp if for any iterator i pointing to the sequence and any non-negative integer n such that i + n is a valid iterator pointing to an element of the sequence, comp(*(i + n), *i) == false. So the docs should say the expression y < x is false I get the following with g++'s underlying is_sorted(): {{{ std::vector v{1, 1}; std::cout << boost::is_sorted(v) << std::endl; // prints 1 }}} Reference for is_sorted at cplusplus.com [sorry not allowed to post a link] backs this up."
