std::forward_list(3)

NAME
std::forward_list - std::forward_list

Synopsis
   Defined in header <forward_list>
   template<
       class T, (1) (since C++11)
       class Allocator = std::allocator<T>
   > class forward_list;
   namespace pmr {
       template< class T >
       using forward_list = std::forward_list<T, (2) (since C++17)
   std::pmr::polymorphic_allocator<T>>;
   }
   std::forward_list is a container that supports fast insertion and removal of
   elements from anywhere in the container. Fast random access is not supported. It is
   implemented as a singly-linked list. Compared to std::list this container provides
   more space efficient storage when bidirectional iteration is not needed.
   Adding, removing and moving the elements within the list, or across several lists,
   does not invalidate the iterators currently referring to other elements in the list.
   However, an iterator or reference referring to an element is invalidated when the
   corresponding element is removed (via erase_after) from the list.
   std::forward_list meets the requirements of Container (except for the size member
   function and that operator=='s complexity is always linear), AllocatorAwareContainer
   and SequenceContainer.

Template parameters
               The type of the elements.
               The requirements that are imposed on the elements depend on the
               actual operations performed on the container. Generally, it is (until
               required that element type is a complete type and meets the C++17)
               requirements of Erasable, but many member functions impose
               stricter requirements.

               required that element type meets the requirements of Erasable, but
   T - many member functions impose stricter requirements. This container
               (but not its members) can be instantiated with an incomplete
               element type if the allocator satisfies the allocator completeness (since
               requirements. C++17)

               An allocator that is used to acquire/release memory and to
               construct/destroy the elements in that memory. The type must meet the
               requirements of Allocator.
   Allocator - The behavior is undefined
               (until C++20)
               The program is ill-formed
               (since C++20) if Allocator::value_type is not the same as T.
