We often take it for granted that calling one of the Standard algorithms will do something meaningful. For example, when invoking `position = find(first, last, value)` we expect that if an element equal to value is contained in the range `[first, last)` then `position` will point to the first such element; otherwise, position will equal `last`. But how do we know `find `will perform this operation? This talk explores requirements, guarantees, and domains, and we'll discover that maybe `find` doesn't.
