A `basic_json` value is a container and allows access via iterators. Depending on the value type, `basic_json` stores zero or more values.
As for other containers, `begin()` returns an iterator to the first value and `end()` returns an iterator to the value following the last value. The latter iterator is a placeholder and cannot be dereferenced. In case of null values, empty arrays, or empty objects, `begin()` will return `end()`.
As for other containers, [`begin()`](https://json.nlohmann.me/api/basic_json/begin/index.md) returns an iterator to the first value and [`end()`](https://json.nlohmann.me/api/basic_json/end/index.md) returns an iterator to the value following the last value. The latter iterator is a placeholder and cannot be dereferenced. In case of null values, empty arrays, or empty objects, `begin()` will return `end()`.
### Iteration order for objects
When iterating over objects, values are ordered with respect to the `object_comparator_t` type which defaults to `std::less`. See the [types documentation](https://json.nlohmann.me/features/types/#key-order) for more information.
Example
Example: iteration order of object values

The JSON iterators have two member functions, `key()` and `value()` to access the object key and stored value, respectively. When calling `key()` on a non-object iterator, an [invalid_iterator.207](https://json.nlohmann.me/home/exceptions/#jsonexceptioninvalid_iterator207) exception is thrown.

For this reason, the `items()` function allows accessing `iterator::key()` and `iterator::value()` during range-based for loops. In these loops, a reference to the JSON values is returned, so there is no access to the underlying iterator.

### Reverse iteration order
`rbegin()` and `rend()` return iterators in the reverse sequence.

Note that "value" means a JSON value in this setting, not values stored in the underlying containers. That is, `*begin()` returns the complete string or binary array and is also safe if the underlying string or binary array is empty.
