Constructs a new container from a variety of data sources, optionally using a user supplied allocator alloc.

1) Default constructor. Constructs an empty container.

2) Constructs the container with count copies of elements with value value.

3) Constructs the container with count default-inserted instances of T. No copies are made.

4) Constructs the container with the contents of the range [first, last).

This constructor has the same effect as overload (2) if `InputIt` is an integral type.	(until C++11)
This overload only participates in overload resolution if `InputIt` satisfies `InputIterator` , to avoid ambiguity with the overload (2).	(since C++11)

5) Copy constructor. Constructs the container with the copy of the contents of other. If alloc is not provided, allocator is obtained by calling std::allocator_traits<allocator_type>::select_on_container_copy_construction(other.get_allocator().

6) Move constructor. Constructs the container with the contents of other using move semantics. If alloc is not provided, allocator is obtained by move-construction from the allocator belonging to other.

7) Constructs the container with the contents of the initializer list init.

Parameters

alloc	-	allocator to use for all memory allocations of this container
count	-	the size of the container
value	-	the value to initialize elements of the container with
first, last	-	the range to copy the elements from
other	-	another container to be used as source to initialize the elements of the container with
init	-	initializer list to initialize the elements of the container with

Complexity

1) Constant

2-3) Linear in count

4) Linear in distance between first and last

5) Linear in size of other

6) Constant. If alloc is given and alloc != other.get_allocator(), then linear.

7) Linear in size of init

Notes

The overload (3) zeroes out elements of non-class types such as int, which is different from the behavior of new[] , which leaves them uninitialized. To match the behavior of new[], a custom Allocator::construct can be provided which leaves such elements uninitialized.

Exceptions

noexcept specification:

noexcept(noexcept(Allocator()))

noexcept specification:

Example

#include <vector>
#include <string>
#include <iostream>
 
template<typename T>
std::ostream& operator<<(std::ostream& s, const std::vector<T>& v) {
    s.put('[');
    char comma[3] = {'\0', ' ', '\0'};
    for (const auto& e : v) {
        s << comma << e;
        comma[0] = ',';
    }
    return s << ']';
}
 
int main() 
{
    // c++11 initializer list syntax:
    std::vector<std::string> words1 {"the", "frogurt", "is", "also", "cursed"};
    std::cout << "words1: " << words1 << '\n';
 
    // words2 == words1
    std::vector<std::string> words2(words1.begin(), words1.end());
    std::cout << "words2: " << words2 << '\n';
 
    // words3 == words1
    std::vector<std::string> words3(words1);
    std::cout << "words3: " << words3 << '\n';
 
    // words4 is {"Mo", "Mo", "Mo", "Mo", "Mo"}
    std::vector<std::string> words4(5, "Mo");
    std::cout << "words4: " << words4 << '\n';
}

Output:

words1: [the, frogurt, is, also, cursed]
words2: [the, frogurt, is, also, cursed]
words3: [the, frogurt, is, also, cursed]
words4: [Mo, Mo, Mo, Mo, Mo]

assign	assigns values to the container (public member function)
operator=	assigns values to the container (public member function)
