Copies the elements from the source range [first, last) to the destination range beginning at result, replacing all elements satisfying specific criteria with new_value. The behavior is undefined if the source and destination ranges overlap.

1) Replaces all elements that are equal to old_value, using std::invoke(proj, *(first +(i - result)))== old_value to compare.

3) Replaces all elements for which the predicate pred evaluates to true, where the evaluating expression is std::invoke(pred, std::invoke(proj, *(first +(i - result)))).

2,4) Same as (1,3), but uses r as the source range, as if using ranges::begin(r) as first, and ranges::end(r) as last.

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

• Explicit template argument lists cannot be specified when calling any of them.
• None of them are visible to argument-dependent lookup.
• When any of them are found by normal unqualified lookup as the name to the left of the function-call operator, argument-dependent lookup is inhibited.

Parameters

first, last	-	the iterator-sentinel pair defining the range of elements to copy
r	-	the range of elements to copy
result	-	the beginning of the destination range
old_value	-	the value of elements to replace
new_value	-	the value to use as a replacement
pred	-	predicate to apply to the projected elements
proj	-	projection to apply to the elements.

Return value

{last, result + N}, where

1,3)N =ranges::distance(first, last);

2,4)N =ranges::distance(r).

Complexity

Exactly N applications of the corresponding predicate comp and any projection proj.
