If *this contains an unexpected value, invokes f with the unexpected value of *this as the argument and returns a std::expected object that contains an unexpected value, which is initialized with the result of f. Otherwise, returns a std::expected object that represents an expected value.
Given type G as:
1,2) std::remove_cv_t <std::invoke_result_t <F, decltype(error())>>
3,4) std::remove_cv_t <std::invoke_result_t <F, decltype(std::move(error()))>>
5,6) std::remove_cv_t <std::invoke_result_t <F, decltype(error())>>
7,8) std::remove_cv_t <std::invoke_result_t <F, decltype(std::move(error()))>>
If any of the following conditions is satisfied, the program is ill-formed:
-  Gis not a valid template argument forstd::unexpected.
- The following corresponding declaration is ill-formed:
1,2) G g(std::invoke (std::forward <F>(f), error()));
3,4) G g(std::invoke (std::forward <F>(f), std::move(error()));
5,6) G g(std::invoke (std::forward <F>(f), error()));
7,8) G g(std::invoke (std::forward <F>(f), std::move(error()));
1,2) This overload participates in overload resolution only if std::is_constructible_v <T, decltype((
val))> is true.3,4) This overload participates in overload resolution only if std::is_constructible_v <T, decltype(std::move(
val))> is true.[edit] Parameters
 f
 -
 a suitable function or Callable object whose call signature returns a non-reference type
[edit] Return value
Given expression expr as:
1,2) std::invoke (std::forward <F>(f), error())
3,4) std::invoke (std::forward <F>(f), std::move(error()))
5,6) std::invoke (std::forward <F>(f), error())
7,8) std::invoke (std::forward <F>(f), std::move(error()))
The return values are defined as follows:
| Overload | Value of has_value() | |
|---|---|---|
| true | false | |
| (1,2) | std::expected <T, G>(std::in_place,  val) | std::expected <T, G> (std::unexpect, expr) | 
| (3,4) | std::expected <T, G>(std::in_place, std::move( val)) | |
| (5,6) | std::expected <T, G>() | |
| (7,8) | ||

[edit] Defect reports
The following behavior-changing defect reports were applied retroactively to previously published C++ standards.
| DR | Applied to | Behavior as published | Correct behavior | 
|---|---|---|---|
| LWG 3938 | C++23 | the expected value was obtained by value()[1] | changed to **this | 
| LWG 3973 | C++23 | the expected value was obtained by **this[2] | changed to val | 
- ↑  value()requiresEto be copy constructible (see LWG issue 3843), whereoperator*does not.
- ↑ **this can trigger argument-dependent lookup.
