This section deals with conversion from a Range to collections of elements that need not (but may) support iterators.
As I see it, the primary advantage of this conversion feature is that you can use it when th range only exists as a temporary. e.g. if a function returns a range, you can use it without first assigning that range to a variable. Perhaps this aspect could be made more clear?
I thought it was made clear in the tutorial, but I am proven wrong. In this example, a container of type C, in the left hand side of <, is constructed in place and filled with values 1, 1, 3 in it. ( csv_deque( 1, 1, 3 ) | convert<C>() ) < fifo;
