(3) (since C++20)

Let \(\scriptsize N\)N be ranges::min (ranges::distance (ifirst, ilast), ranges::distance (ofirst, olast)).

1) Copies \(\scriptsize N\)N elements from [ifirstilast) (using move semantics if supported) to an uninitialized memory area [ofirstolast) as if by

for (; ifirst != ilast && ofirst != olast; ++ofirst, (void)++ifirst)
    ::new (voidify (*ofirst))
        std::remove_reference_t <std::iter_reference_t <O>>(ranges::iter_move (ifirst));
return {std::move(ifirst), ofirst};

If an exception is thrown during the initialization then the objects that already constructed in [ofirstolast) are destroyed in an unspecified order. Also, the objects in [ifirstilast) that were already moved, are left in a valid but unspecified state.
2) Equivalent to return ranges::uninitialized_move(ranges::begin (in_range), ranges::end (in_range),
                                  ranges::begin (out_range), ranges::end (out_range));
.

The function-like entities described on this page are algorithm function objects (informally known as niebloids), that is:

[edit] Parameters

ifirst, ilast - the iterator-sentinel pair defining the input range of elements to move from
in_range - the input range of elements to move from
ofirst, olast - the iterator-sentinel pair defining the output range of elements to initialize
out_range - the output range to initialize

[edit] Return value

As described above.

[edit] Complexity

Linear in \(\scriptsize N\)N.

[edit] Exceptions

Any exception thrown on construction of the elements in the destination range.

[edit] Notes

An implementation may improve the efficiency of the ranges::uninitialized_move, e.g. by using ranges::copy_n , if the value type of the output range is TrivialType.

[edit] Example

Run this code
#include <cstdlib>
#include <iomanip>
#include <iostream>
#include <memory>
#include <string>
 
void print(auto rem, auto first, auto last)
{
 for (std::cout << rem; first != last; ++first)
 std::cout << std::quoted (*first) << ' ';
 std::cout << '\n';
}
 
int main()
{
 std::string in[]{"Home", "World"};
 print("initially, in: ", std::begin (in), std::end (in));
 
 if (constexpr auto sz = std::size (in);
 void* out = std::aligned_alloc (alignof(std::string ), sizeof(std::string ) * sz))
 {
 try
 {
 auto first{static_cast<std::string *>(out)};
 auto last{first + sz};
 std::ranges::uninitialized_move(std::begin (in), std::end (in), first, last);
 
 print("after move, in: ", std::begin (in), std::end (in));
 print("after move, out: ", first, last);
 
 std::ranges::destroy (first, last);
 }
 catch (...)
 {
 std::cout << "Exception!\n";
 }
 std::free (out);
 }
}

Possible output:

initially, in: "Home" "World"
after move, in: "" ""
after move, out: "Home" "World"
