I think what the OP is saying is that in the STL, we have: equal_range ( ForwardIterator first, ForwardIterator last, c onst T& value ); and upper_bound ( ForwardIterator first, ForwardIterator last, c onst T& value );

but in Boost.Range, we have: equal_range ( Range &r, const T& value ); and upper_bound ( Range &r, T value );

And he's wondering why boost::range::upper_bound takes its' parameter by value.

Is that correct?
