Does boost offer make_zip_range?

Question

At this answer here on SO, there's a comment suggesting a useful C++ construct, similar to make_zip_iterator, but for ranges: It takes a tuple of ranges and produces a new range - whose begin() and end() iterators are the appropriate zip iterators.

Now, this should not be too difficult to implement, but I was wondering - Isn't already offered already by Boost somehow?

See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8511035/sequence-zip-function-for-c11 - I don't know of Boost offering this, but that thread shows you how to use Boost to build it. It'd be nice to have it built in somewhere. — John Zwinck, Oct 10 '14 at 00:44

Boost.Range is providing combine() function as zip_iterator's range.

... and will it work with C++11 range-based for loops, or do I need to stick to BOOST_FOREACH ? – einpoklum Oct 10 '14 at 13:52

You can apply to both (range-based for and BOOST_FOREACH). – Akira Takahashi Oct 14 '14 at 03:34
