In the algorithm library, some function templates construct and destroy objects in uninitialized memory buffers. They are declared and defined in <memory>.

Helper templates

voidify	obtains a void* pointer to a given lvalue object (exposition-only function template*)
deref-move (C++17)	derefences an iterator, and moves the result if it is an lvalue (exposition-only function template*)
nothrow-input-iteratornothrow-forward-iteratornothrow-bidirectional-iteratornothrow-random-access-iterator (C++20)(C++20)(C++26)(C++26)	specifies some operations on iterators are non-throwing (exposition-only concept*)
nothrow-sentinel-fornothrow-sized-sentinel-for (C++20)(C++26)	specifies some operations on sentinels are non-throwing (exposition-only concept*)
nothrow-input-rangenothrow-forward-rangenothrow-bidirectional-rangenothrow-random-access-rangenothrow-sized-random-access-range (C++20)(C++20)(C++26)(C++26)(C++26)	specifies some operations on ranges are non-throwing (exposition-only concept*)
