# std::tuple::operator=

From cppreference.com
< cpp‎ | utility‎ | tuple

tuple& operator=( const tuple& other ); | (1) | (since C++11)
tuple& operator=( tuple&& other ); | (2) | (since C++11)
template< class... UTypes > tuple& operator=( const tuple<UTypes...>& other ); | (3) | (since C++11)
template< class... UTypes > tuple& operator=( tuple<UTypes...>&& other ); | (4) | (since C++11)
template< class U1, class U2 > tuple& operator=( const pair<U1,U2>& p ); | (5) | (since C++11)

Replaces the contents of the tuple with the contents of another tuple or a pair.

1) Copy assignment operator. Replaces each element with a copy of the corresponding element of `other`.

2) Move assignment operator. Replaces each element with the corresponding element of `other` using move semantics.

3) For all `i`, assigns std::get<i>(other) to std::get<i>(*this).

4) For all `i`, assigns std::forward<Ui>(std::get<i>(other)) to std::get<i>(*this).

5) Assigns p.first to the first element of *this and p.second to the second element of *this.

6) Assigns std::forward<U1>(p.first) to the first element of *this and std::forward<U2>(p.second) to the second element of *this.

The behavior of these functions is undefined unless: For (1), std::is_copy_assignable<T_i>::value is true for all `T_i` in `Types`. For (2), std::is_move_assignable<T_i>::value is true for all `T_i` in `Types`. For (3), sizeof...(UTypes) == sizeof...(Types) and std::is_assignable<T_i&, const U_i&>::value is true for all corresponding pairs of types `T_i` in `Types` and `U_i` in `UTypes`. For (4), sizeof...(UTypes) == sizeof...(Types) and std::is_assignable<T_i&, U_i&&>::value is true for all corresponding pairs of types `T_i` in `Types` and `U_i` in `UTypes`. For (5), sizeof...(Types) == 2 and std::is_assignable<T_0&, const U1&>::value and std::is_assignable<T_1&, const U2&>::value are both true, where `T_0` and `T_1` are the two types constituting `Types`. For (6), sizeof...(Types) == 2 and std::is_assignable<T_0&, U1&&>::value and std::is_assignable<T_1&, U2&&>::value are both true, where `T_0` and `T_1` are the two types constituting `Types`. | (until C++17)
These functions do not participate in overload resolution (or, for the copy assignment operator, is defined as deleted) if any required assignment operation is invalid or if there is a size mismatch. Specifically: (1) is defined as deleted unless std::is_copy_assignable<T_i>::value is true for all `T_i` in `Types`. (2) does not participate in overload resolution unless std::is_move_assignable<T_i>::value is true for all `T_i` in `Types`. (3) does not participate in overload resolution unless sizeof...(UTypes) == sizeof...(Types) and std::is_assignable<T_i&, const U_i&>::value is true for all corresponding pairs of types `T_i` in `Types` and `U_i` in `UTypes`. (4) does not participate in overload resolution unless sizeof...(UTypes) == sizeof...(Types) and std::is_assignable<T_i&, U_i&&>::value is true for all corresponding pairs of types `T_i` in `Types` and `U_i` in `UTypes`. (5) does not participate in overload resolution unless sizeof...(Types) == 2, std::is_assignable<T_0&, const U1&>::value and std::is_assignable<T_1&, const U2&>::value are both true, where `T_0` and `T_1` are the two types constituting `Types`. (6) does not participate in overload resolution unless std::is_assignable<T_0&, U1&&>::value and std::is_assignable<T_1&, U2&&>::value are both true, where `T_0` and `T_1` are the two types constituting `Types`. | (since C++17)
