26.7.2 Move [alg.move]

template<class InputIterator, class OutputIterator>
  constexpr OutputIterator move(InputIterator first, InputIterator last,
                                OutputIterator result);

template<input_iterator I, sentinel_for<I> S, weakly_incrementable O>
  requires indirectly_movable<I, O>
  constexpr ranges::move_result<I, O>
    ranges::move(I first, S last, O result);
template<input_range R, weakly_incrementable O>
  requires indirectly_movable<iterator_t<R>, O>
  constexpr ranges::move_result<borrowed_iterator_t<R>, O>
    ranges::move(R&& r, O result);

Let E be

(1.1)
std::move(*(first + n)) for the overload in namespace std;
(1.2)
ranges::iter_move(first + n) for the overloads in namespace ranges.

Let N be last - first.

Preconditions: result is not in the range [first, last).

Effects: Moves elements in the range [first, last) into the range [result, result + N) starting from first and proceeding to last.

For each non-negative integer

n < N

, performs *(result + n) = E.

Returns:

(4.1)
result + N for the overload in namespace std.
(4.2)
{last, result + N} for the overloads in namespace ranges.

Complexity: Exactly N assignments.

template<class ExecutionPolicy, class ForwardIterator1, class ForwardIterator2>
  ForwardIterator2 move(ExecutionPolicy&& policy,
                        ForwardIterator1 first, ForwardIterator1 last,
                        ForwardIterator2 result);

Let N be last - first.

Preconditions: The ranges [first, last) and [result, result + N) do not overlap.

Effects: Moves elements in the range [first, last) into the range [result, result + N).

For each non-negative integer

n < N

, performs *(result + n) = std::move(*(first + n)).

Returns: result + N.

Complexity: Exactly N assignments.

template<class BidirectionalIterator1, class BidirectionalIterator2>
  constexpr BidirectionalIterator2
    move_backward(BidirectionalIterator1 first, BidirectionalIterator1 last,
                  BidirectionalIterator2 result);

template<bidirectional_iterator I1, sentinel_for<I1> S1, bidirectional_iterator I2>
  requires indirectly_movable<I1, I2>
  constexpr ranges::move_backward_result<I1, I2>
    ranges::move_backward(I1 first, S1 last, I2 result);
template<bidirectional_range R, bidirectional_iterator I>
  requires indirectly_movable<iterator_t<R>, I>
  constexpr ranges::move_backward_result<borrowed_iterator_t<R>, I>
    ranges::move_backward(R&& r, I result);

Let E be

(11.1)
std::move(*(last - n)) for the overload in namespace std;
(11.2)
ranges::iter_move(last - n) for the overloads in namespace ranges.

Let N be last - first.

Preconditions: result is not in the range (first, last].

Effects: Moves elements in the range [first, last) into the range [result - N, result) starting from last - 1 and proceeding to first.207

For each positive integer n ≤ N, performs *(result - n) = E.

Returns:

(14.1)
result - N for the overload in namespace std.
(14.2)
{last, result - N} for the overloads in namespace ranges.

Complexity: Exactly N assignments.

move_backward can be used instead of move when last is in the range [result - N, result).
