## Struct template child_c

boost::proto::functional::child_c — A callable PolymorphicFunctionObject that is equivalent to the `proto::child_c()` function.

## Synopsis

    // In header: <boost/proto/traits.hpp>

    template<long N>
    struct child_c :  proto::callable {
      // member classes/structs/unions
      template<typename This, typename Expr>
      struct result<This(Expr)> :  proto::result_of::child_c< Expr, N > {
      };

      // public member functions
      template<typename Expr>
        typename proto::result_of::child_c< Expr &, N >::type
        operator()(Expr &) const;
      template<typename Expr>
        typename proto::result_of::child_c< Expr const &, N >::type
        operator()(Expr const &) const;
    };

## Description

### `child_c` public member functions

1.     template<typename Expr>
         typename proto::result_of::child_c< Expr &, N >::type
         operator()(Expr & expr) const;

   Return the `N`th child of the given expression.

   Parameters: |
   `expr` | The expression node.
   Requires: | `proto::is_expr<Expr>::value` is `true` `N < Expr::proto_arity::value`
   Returns: | `proto::child_c<N>(expr)`
   Throws: | Will not throw.

2.     template<typename Expr>
         typename proto::result_of::child_c< Expr const &, N >::type
         operator()(Expr const & expr) const;

   This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.
