Internal Implementation Mechanisms of std::tuple in C++

The storage design of std::tuple relies on a recursive inheritance model. A tuple with N elements (where N > 0) is implemented as a derived class that privately inherits from a base class representing a tuple of the remaining N-1 elements. The terminal case is an empty tuple specialization for zero elements. Consider the following instantiat ...
