9[section Tuple]
10
11The TR1 technical report describes extensions to the C++ standard library.
12Many of these extensions will be considered for the next
13iteration of the C++ standard. TR1 describes a tuple type, and
14support for treating `std::pair` as a type of tuple.
15
16Fusion provides full support for the __tr1__tuple__ interface, and the extended
17uses of `std::pair` described in the TR1 document.
18
19[section Class template tuple]
20Fusion's implementation of the __tr1__tuple__ is also a fusion __forward_sequence__.
21As such the fusion tuple type provides a lot of functionality beyond that required by TR1.
22
23Currently tuple is basically a synonym for __vector__, although this may be changed
24in future releases of fusion.

49[section Construction]
50
51[heading Description]
52The __tr1__tuple__ type provides a default constructor, a constructor that takes initializers for all of its elements, a copy constructor, and a converting copy constructor. The details of the various constructors are described in this section.
53

58    [[`P1 ... PN`]             [Parameter types]]

61]
62
63    tuple();
64
65[*Requirements]: Each `Ti` is default-constructible.
66
67[*Semantics]: Default initializes each element of the tuple.
68
69    tuple(P1,P2,...,PN);
70
71[*Requirements]: Each `Pi` is `Ti` if `Ti` is a reference type, `const Ti&` otherwise.
72
73[*Semantics]: Copy initializes each element with the corresponding parameter.
74
75    tuple(const tuple& t);
76
77[*Requirements]: Each `Ti` should be copy-constructible.
78
79[*Semantics]: Copy constructs each element of `*this` with the corresponding element of `t`.
80
81    template<typename U1, typename U2, ..., typename UN>
82    tuple(const tuple<U1, U2, ..., UN>& t);
83
84[*Requirements]: Each `Ti` shall be constructible from the corresponding `Ui`.
85
86[*Semantics]: Constructs each element of `*this` with the corresponding element of `t`.

90[section Tuple creation functions]
91
92[heading Description]
93TR1 describes 2 utility functions for creating __tr1__tuple__. `make_tuple` builds a tuple out of it's argument list, and `tie` builds a tuple of references to it's arguments. The details of these creation functions are described in this section.
94
95[heading Specification]
96
97    template<typename T1, typename T2, ..., typename TN>
98    tuple<V1, V2, ..., VN>
99    make_tuple(const T1& t1, const T2& t2, ..., const TN& tn);
100
101Where `Vi` is `X&` if the cv-unqualified type `Ti` is `reference_wrapper<X>`, otherwise `Vi` is `Ti`.
102
103[*Returns]: `tuple<V1, V2, ..., VN>(t1, t2, ..., tN)`
104
105    template<typename T1, typename T2, ..., typename TN>
106    tuple<T1&, T2&, ..., TN&>
107    tie(T1& t1, T2& t2, ..., TN& tn);
108
109[*Returns]: tuple<T1&, T2&, ..., TN&>(t1, t2, ..., tN). When argument `ti` is `ignore`, assigning any value to the corresponding tuple element has no effect.

112
113[section Tuple helper classes]
114
115[heading Description]
116The __tr1__tuple__ provides 2 helper traits, for compile time access to the tuple size, and the element types.
