Function ranges::fold_left_first returns std::optional<int> rather then int:

Here's the corrected code:

#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <ranges>
#include <algorithm>
#include <optional>
using namespace std;

int main() {
    const vector<int> v = {1, 2, 3};
    std::optional<int> result = ranges::fold_left_first(v | views::transform([](int i) { return i * i; }), plus<>());

    // Check if the result has a value and use it
    if (result.has_value()) {
        const int n = result.value();
        cout << "The sum of the squares is: " << n << endl;
    } else {
        cout << "The vector is empty." << endl;
    }

    return 0;
