Discussion:
Why does
template<class InputIterator>
basic_string& append(InputIterator first, InputIterator last);
return a string, while
template<class InputIterator>
void insert(iterator p, InputIterator first, InputIterator last);
returns nothing ?
Rationale:
The LWG believes this stylistic inconsistency is not sufficiently serious to constitute a defect.
