Example

The following code shows an example for `end()`.

    #include <iostream>
    #include <nlohmann/json.hpp>

    using json = nlohmann::json;

    int main()
    {
        // create an array value
        json array = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5};

        // get an iterator to one past the last element
        json::iterator it = array.end();

        // decrement the iterator to point to the last element
        --it;

        // serialize the element that the iterator points to
        std::cout << *it << '\n';
    }
