Constructs an expected value in-place. After the call, has_value() returns true.

1) Destroys the contained value, then direct-initializes the expected value contained in *this with std::forward <Args> (args)
This overload participates in overload resolution only if std::is_nothrow_constructible_v<T, Args...> is true
2) Destroys the contained value, then direct-initializes the expected value contained in *this with il and std::forward <Args> (args)
This overload participates in overload resolution only if std::is_nothrow_constructible_v <T, std::initializer_list <U> &, Args...> is true
3) If *this contains an unexpected value, destroys that value.

Parameters

args - the arguments to pass to the constructor
il - the initializer list to pass to the constructor

Return value

1) * std::construct_at ( std::addressof ( val ), std::forward <Args> (args)...)
2) * std::construct_at ( std::addressof ( val ), il, std::forward <Args> (args)...)

Notes

If the construction of T is potentially-throwing, operator= can be used instead.
